Without change, something sleeps inside us, and seldom awakens. The sleeper must awaken.
-Frank Herbert


hmm..so i know i've talked to lou about this already and a few other people..it must be this change in weather that's making me so crazy these days..but lately i keep thinking that i have absolutely no idea what direction i'm taking in life...not that the state i'm in right now is bad..in fact i should be lucky and thankful for everything i've been able to attain so far..it's just..i can't see myself staying in this type of field for like the 30+ years i'd need until retirement..i dunno..maybe it was after reading rex's blog that re-emphasized this notion..that i'm not passionate about my work..which makes me kind of sad..i mean i busted my ass getting an engineering degree..ehhh and i feel like this now?.. just a couple of days ago i had this same conversation with one of my old classmates..i guess we were just looking for a way out..i mean..as i was telling her that i couldn't see myself doing engineering my whole life...she understood because she's been feeling the same way..and damn..she's not even working yet..she's freaking taking up a master's in engineering..but if i think about it..i still couldn't see my self majoring in anything else besides engineering...weird huh?..i dunno..i guess i've been thinking about it more also because i'll be 24 in less than two months..and you'd think i'd know by now what my purpose in life is..one would think that after all the schooling i received..once i graduated college i'd know what to do in this world..geez i even took an extra 5th year to just stay in school longer...and what's the outcome..ha..back to square one...my brain seems to be on hiatus since i graduated..is it just me?..hopefully not..as much as i think i want change..the truth is i'd probably be freaked out by it..stability is good right?..having the peace of mind that i can't get laid off is a blessing isn't it?..then what's the problema here..who knows..my mind must be taking a mini-vacation...hey..maybe that's it..i just need a vacation..yah..there you go..forget my rambling..i'm just another drone in this working world..nothing new on this side of the honeycomb...exciting eh..haha yah i know honeycomb?..wtf?..so sue me..i suck at cliches!..on another happier note..let me talk about food=P...if you're ever down by newport beach..you NEED to check out this italian sub joint called GALLO'S...in the albertson's plaza..and order the Gallo Special!.it's very muy yum!!..soooooo good..dang..i'm hungry..mmmm...gallo's!!
