Summer 2014
Let me start by saying that this summer is different. Way different compared to the past 19 summers I’ve had because of two things.
- I am living in San Diego, by myself, taking classes.
- I found actually found a job.
With that being said, I am a “rising” 3rd year (rising apparently means “becoming” according to some UCLA folks I met when my board had a little collab/hangout with the board of UCLA’s Samahang Pilipino). Being a 3rd year means that I am in the crossroads of being a lowerhead and an upperhead. I’m old-er. I at least should know what I want to do now. Yet, this is not the case for me, which makes me anxious being that I am a 20 J in the Myers-Briggs test. I have the same dreams as before. I know the end but I don’t know how to get there. Rather, I added more things to the end and thinking about how to get there, maybe is the most stressful thing ever.
Slowly and surely, I am running out of time as my undergraduate career quickly wraps to an end in about two years…maybe more. And with this means that I need to figure out my plans ASAP.
Welcome, as I venture into the great unknown, or life as many people may call it.
