Well, although the title may imply that I'm going to be in your face with my opinions, not really. This is my first attempt at a blog and I thought it was a creative name...
Anywho, It's nice day in St. George. Just sittin on campus doing my daily social networking, checking my sisters blogs, listening to coldplay, doing a little people watching, and debating whether or not to get started on some homework. Exciting right?
Naturally while doing such mindless mundane tasks, you mind wanders, dangerous I know. It has wandered to my human development class that I had last night. We finally hit my age group, early adulthood. We talked about how this is the time in your life when you establish your identity, or your adult path. Some people take the first few years and explore life, travel, different jobs, and just go crazy. Then they find that identity. Then there are those who have their identity handed to them from their parents, like my dad is a blank therefore I will be blank too. Then there are those who just feel lost. They can't invision their future, they have no idea which way to go.
Now why am I thinking about this? Well, I think I have felt each one of these. There have been multiple times where I have wanted to be a dentist, sometimes because that's what my dad is and sometimes not. There have been a few times in my life where knew exactly what I wanted to do. Then because of life changes, those plans shattered and I came back to a place where I was just lost and had no clue anymore.
Not sure where I'm going with this. I guess this class made me realize that I'm back to being lost and searching for that identity. It's also nice to know that this process is normal, even for a 23 year old who's already divorced. I guess I got some searching to do.
And so ends my first post. Woot.
