If Only I Could Make a Living by Living. I Would Be Wildly Successful.


first time rock climbing on the coast of Sweden

“So, what are you going to do now?”

…asks everyone ever these days.  I just don’t know the answer.  Graduation is less than three weeks away, I have been studying for four years (technically 17 years if we are talking since kindergarten), and it is only reasonable that I am being asked, “now what?”  I just don’t have an answer.

I am interested in so many things (including architecture, which I am studying here) and I am successful at anything I put my mind to.  But what do I love?  What do I want to do?  What is going to make me excited to “work” in the “real world?”  Again.  I just don’t know.

Truthfully, what makes me happiest is learning and exploring.  Now that I have studied architecture for four months, how about I volunteer in Africa for a year?  Then live in a Buddhist temple, go sailing around the world, apprentice for some amazing cook, spend entire days doing yoga, and just continue on as such until I expire.

On a personal note, I think frequently about my future vocation and what I would like it to be.  I cannot decide, though, if there is a clearly superior option to the following: learn many mysteries of the world and be a jack of all trades, or, learn everything that I can about one subject and become one of the most knowledgeable in the world.

My ideal job?  Living.  So on that note, if anyone can get in touch with Discovery or Travel or some TV channel that wants to offer me my own show where I just live, and they record it and pay me, that would be great.
