International man of mystery

I don't consider my job a "real" job persay, mostly because it has nothing to do with my major. Moreso because I am only doing it because I have to. And, partly, because I get to use an alias. A real job should not entail me having the same last name as a fictional international man of mystery.

I anticipate and look forward to having a job that I can actually say I like. I went to school and borrowed all of that money for something, so I hope it's just a matter of time before I can find something I enjoy. Maybe I just get antsy being at the same place for too long. Which is also why I still occassionally search for positions on a cruise ship, just to get away for awhile. I want to travel, and it would be very nice to get paid for it.

It's been hard for me not to feel old lately. For one, I no longer care so much about going out every weekend and drinking. I'm not in college anymore. And I have to wake up early every day. For two, EVERYONE I know is getting married or having babies. I used to have a plan to be married by 25. That's not something that is necessarily feasible for me right now. I want to have accomplished a lot before I'm married. I want to have a lot of money saved up. And I want to have a career, not just a job.

That's not to say that I'm not happy right now. I am extremely happy. I'm just waiting for my turn to "grow up" in a sense.
