I’m a little bit down today. As I scrubbed my kitchen, as one of my mother’s demands for another day of nothing, I realized- wow, I have no plans.
I’ve always had some sort of action plan in my life. I mean, since first grade we’d learned about short- and long-term goals. During school, they were easy to find. Short term goal: complete homework assignment. Long-term goal: complete high school. In spring of 2006, there was a slight shift, and my short term goal became the completion of high school, and everything long-term was attributed to Katimavik. Now, that time has run out, and I find myself a tad behind. My “goal wall,” of post-its on a mirror shouts things such as “drink 1L of water a day,” and “develop a few photos to keep.” Where’s the “find a career you will enjoy and the corresponding university program,” post-it?
A couple weeks ago, I blogged about procrastinating my portfolio, and if I’m perfectly honest, I will admit that is the last time I ever thought of the blasted thing!
I’ve applied for a few work experience programs, but none of them have really captured my heart yet. I’m not sure if I mentioned it on here, but I am no longer working as a construction worker due to my lack of enthusiasm for metal and rubber. It sort of seems like there is… absolutely nothing happening. My life is completely stagnant. And I’m not saying this is the emo “woe is me,” way I used to complain about it in high school.



I found your site on google blog search and read a few of your other posts. Keep up the good work. Just added your RSS feed to my feed reader. Look forward to reading more from you.

Meh, I bet you it’ll improve – give it time.
Good luck with everything, and sorry I couldn’t be more helpful.
I feel the same actually – just moved home, no job, just failed an interview, no real friends here and I find myself at a loose end. I’ve been to uni but don’t really have any skills. I wish I knew then what I know now.
Good luck in your persuit of plans, and goals and I wish you luck!
I always feel empty in the most non-emoist way possible. I just feel so…blah? Sometimes it’s good to have a little down time to yourself though :).
Oh gosh. I’m right there with you.
How about further education? I know no one likes going back to school but at least it provides a medium for socializing and self-improvement.
No plans is good in a way
Go with the flow
Life should be like that if you ask me
Good luck in finding a job and the work experience.
Well, than find a paper and write everything you want from your life and you can have a long term plan. Write about job, kids, boyfriend and everything. Search for a job that matches to your requirements.
