The future is not slowing down...

What I am going to do once I graduate is always in the back of my mind. Before I know it, I'll be a college graduate with the world at my feet. It is terrifying. I've always been optimistic about the future although I have no idea where I will/want to end up. Recently, I've been banking on moving in with my brother who lives in NYC until I form a plan. 

My mother backpacked across Europe when she graduated college and had the time of her life. My brother went to China for a month after he graduated. I really want to go explore the world while I have the opportunity: before I start my career and fresh out of college. However, none of my close friends have any interest in traveling the world with me. 

Come this winter, I am going to have to start applying for jobs!! I've had my fair share of jobs in my life and even had a full time internship last summer. But I get so fed up with doing the same thing over and over and being in the same place! Choosing a job that I will have for years just makes me feel uneasy. Like a caged bird. Even though I have an older brother who just went through the same thing I have, he is completely different from me. He loved school and learning, so after college he got a job doing something that he loves. 

Either way I'm not moving back home... I'm just waiting for an epiphany rather than a midlife crisis!
