Too young

I need something new to look forward to.

In the span of 11 months, I have gone from wide-eyed novice Staff Writer (supposedly) living the dream, to a tired, jaded and nearly burnt out 20 something looking for extra income. I really don't know why this is all coming up so soon. Shouldn't I be happy considering that where I am now is where I said I wanted to be straight out of college? Maybe it's because I'm under paid? Or maybe I'm just in denial for deciding to take the more "comfortable" route into employment? Whatever it is, I need to fix it and find that one thing I want to wake up in the morning for and that one job that won't require me to over extend myself half of all the time. I need something that will inspire me to create something big, something memorable, and something worth telling the world about. Okay, so that last declaration may be a tad bit too grand, but really, I just need something to bring back the excitement in my life. As much as it pains me to admit it, I feel that now is the time for me to cut my losses and start anew.

It may be the aggressive nature of my generation, but at 21, I really don't think I should be quite as unhappy to be where I am today. I guess some things really do change.

xx,

Ri.
