I really liked my horoscope today:
Lindsey,
For the life of you, you just can't seem to figure out where it all went wrong. Speak up before others forget that you have a voice. You must let your opinions be known, or risk being pushed aside. The impossible is beginning to seem routine to you now.
"The impossible is beginning to seem routine to you now." Wow. I don't put much credence in daily horoscopes, but what an idea!
I was wondering about the title of my blog: The Adventures Yet to Come. Recently I've had quite a few adventures, largely with the help of Charlotte. But, despite our crazy antics (and believe me, they are crazy, impulsive, thrill-seeking, and silly), I feel like the real stuff hasn't started. Maybe that's what is motivating my desire to travel the world (besides "finding myself" and whatnot...and Belgian chocolate).
I'm graduating from college. Excepting grad school, this was the last step in the preconceived agenda of my life. Preschool, elementary, high school, college ... life. I feel like so many people just assume the next step is getting a job and settling into life. Not that I have any problem with that course, but I'm fed up with people pushing it on me. For example, my mom: since I can remember she always told me that she knew I was going to do something great with my life (yeah, yeah, she's my mom so she's biased); but now, all she asks is when I'm going to get a job. How am I supposed to do something great if I don't even know what I'm doing, or what I'm supposed to be doing?
Maybe I'm just behind -- everyone knows what they want to do, and what they want to do is within their career aspirations. (What I want to does not fall under the umbrella of a "career"). Maybe running away and running around won't help me figure it out. But I'm feeling extremely claustrophobic -- too claustrophobic for one who is graduating and has her life laid out before her like a delicious buffet of sushi delights.
On that note, I'm going to go get my knee X-rayed.
