So my sister asked me today "What are you doing next summer?" I simply replied with "Well..hopefully I'll have a job." She wanted to know if I was living at home because apparently my mom seems to think I will still be living at home.
That made me think...where will I be in one year? Yes I want a full-time position in the field of journalism. But I don't want to be a grown-up, with a grown-up job. Oh well..it must happen at some point.
What worries me is thinking about where I may be in one year's time. There's so many places I want to go. London, New York, Chicago and Minneapolis. And yet, I want to be in La Crosse. I love it here and have so many good things going for me here. So now I am in a pickle..do I move away and hope to one day return home? That seems like the most logical scenario. But leaving what I know and am comfortable with does scare me a bit.
I'm definitely not picky in where I end up having a job, as far as geographically. I would like to end up back in the Midwest someday if I do choose to move away after school. I like the area and want to be close to family. I also want to see the world. This is where I am stuck.
We'll see I guess. Who knows what will come my way in the next year. I just have to have an open mind and be grateful for the opportunities I am given.
