When you are a kid the biggest decisions you have to make is: Chocolate, Vanilla or both?
But the older you get, the more your decisions have an impact on how your life will end up turning out.
I am graduating college in about four months. I can't believe time has passed by so fast and I am now facing the question: "What do I want to do for the rest of my life?" Worsening my situation is the fact that not only do I have to decide what area of expertise I want to enter but also where I want to live.
Europe, Asia, U.S.A.... the choice seems endless and every option holds different pro's and con's.
Should I go where the money is or where my friends and family are? Do I want to spend my life working insane hours and supporting a high-stress level just to get a fat pay-check every end of the month in a city full of strangers or would I rather do that surrounded by the people that have been there for me in my worst times even through time difference and thousands of miles separation?
I never thought I would end up having to choose between money and love... It is weird really. I never actually considered it to be this hard. My whole life has gone according to my plan. I finished high school, went to the college I wanted to go to, studied the course I wanted and everything has just been so brilliant. And now I feel like I am in front of a make or break moment. What happens if I make the wrong decision? What do you do when you regret what you have done but you can't take it back?
I am terrified of making the wrong choice. It's scary. It's intimidating. I just wish asking the magic 8-ball would be an appropriate thing to do... Just unfortunately, this one time, I don't think I'll be able to get myself out of this one. I will have to choose. No matter how long I put it off... my life will change this summer... so from now on it is the countdown to THE biggest decision I will ever have had to make!
