Change will do you good
I'm at a place I've never really been before and I can't say I can get my feet grounded very well. I'm normally very adapting and I always try my best to make a situation work but it has been months since I've felt good about myself. Journal after journal I always abandon my only vent for a thinking process after a while. I think I'm in need of some structure and planning. So... I've made some plans.
For the past few months I've been pretty dead set on becoming a nurse. 80-90 grand a year, extreme benefits, working 3 days a fucking week and being able to provide for my parents at some point. That would be beyond gangsta but of course, it's not me and I don't know how to not do me. I'm too flawed. Even though I've been a writer for years now and I've been "dead set" on writing "no matter what it takes", somewhere along the way I lost my strength. I was a fucking rock - I never let shit get to me or bother me, nothing mattered, I never cried (especially not for absolutely no reason!) and I always did what I wanted. And though I still make my own decisions... money has taken a bigger role than anything else. I was trying to find something else that I could do but I obvs didn't figure shit out. I never have time to just fucking think. I'm too tired for anything else.
And so I had an epiphany the other day in my creative writing class. A couple of people in my already tiny class were absent so we did a little game to pass the time effectively. I never realized that there are people who also find excitement in a single word. it was the first time I really felt right in school and I decided whatever that feeling was, I have to keep chasing it forever until I finally get something radically good out of it. And..... I really hope I do.
So although I'm going back to an idea I've been dragging with me for years now, I've decided I'm sticking with it. So technically I don't know if this is change but, I've been in some serious need of some in general. Even though I'm really fucking tired of trying, I'm gonna
