All through school I was one of those kids who would procrastinate until I absolutely had to do something, and I did the same thing with college. Upon graduating high school with grades which were good, not great, I decided to try out community college. After one semester decided it wasn't really what I was looking for. So I decided to take some time off from school, get a job and save as much money as I could. Well after and year and a half of working two different jobs, waiting tables, and working at a distribution center, and saving no money, I decided it was definitely time to go back to college so I could pursue a career in which I would want to go to work everyday, instead of dreading it as I do now. Back when I was fresh out of high school, I didn't appreciate what college could do for me. I just wanted to take the easy way out and start working and making money, but the real world ends up kicking your butt.
I feel like I spend a lot of time thinking (and worrying) about my future. Am I the only who does this? In what ways do you cope with the pressures of life, and school, and prepare yourself for what the future has to hold? I am interested to hear your ideas and opinions, so leave a comment below.
