Decisions, decisions
I'm slowly reaching another major crossroads in my life. I reached one of those major crossroads last year around June, and here I am in Vail. The one before that was probably the decision on where to go to college. Which wasn't too tough considering I only applied to one school.
This decision at this particular crossroads will probably dictate my life for the next couple years. If anything, I don't want to move too quickly again. I've had to say more goodbyes than I would have liked in the past year, and I know I will have hard ones again this year. And as much fun as it would be to be a ski bum for a while, this isn't my life and I can't let myself fall into a rut.
I've come to two choices: 1)go to school, or 2)get a job (within my major). I'd rather go to school because I'm not a fan of the whole work thing. Yes, money is good, but work is work. The only real job I'd actually consider is something in EMS, and they don't pay a whole lot anyway. So that leaves me with impending school (hopefully). Where? I don't know. How will I live without a job? I don't know. How will I pay for school? I don't know. Everything that is practical is telling me that I should enter the real world. Job = Money. But I can't bring myself to accept that as my life yet.
Driving away from the Rockies for the last time this Summer will be just as hard as walking at Graduation, moving out of my junior/senior year apartment,and working that last shift at the best ambulance company in the world. But it's something that must be done. I'm sad, yet anxious to move on to the next phase of my life. I'm still a few months away from any of those hard decisions, but I can't help thinking about it all. (Which isn't helping my dream situation.)
On another note, I get a roomate Wednesday. The same day I pick up James from the airport for his 8 day stay. I'm upset that my naked adventures must end yet again.
