There are times in your life when you simply have to sit back, take a break, and do some deep thinking.

For me, this is one of those times.

My year at Missouri State was pretty much a failure, in my eyes, at least.  I made some great friends, but am only one step closer to discovering what I really want to do with my life.

That one step was discovering that I don't want to teach.  I find there's no point in trying to teach someone who has no interest in what you're saying.

I love museums.  So maybe a degree in museum studies?

That's my new goal.

Last month, my parents took me out to dinner to ask what I was doing with my life.

"My biggest fear is waking up in twenty years and realizing I've wasted my life doing something I don't care about."

What do I care about?  A lot of things.  What do I care about enough to spend the rest of my life with it?  I have no idea.  My life so far is pretty basic... I pick something up, I get bored and throw it away.

What I need is a career counselor.  Someone to help me discover what I really love.

For now, I'm taking a break from college (though a chance at a couple of classes at community college wouldn't be bad) to discover myself, get a job, and think further about this move to Colorado.

And perhaps a new start on dA.  We'll see.
