Life never quite turns out like you expect. Two years ago I expected to be studying towards a bachelors degree (in case you were wondering, I'm not). I expected to be doing more with my life than making barely enough money to survive by waiting tables. I get that complaining about everything isn't going to do anything, but I'm damn frustrated. I worked so hard to have a good G.P.A. (grade point average), did all of the extracurricular activities necessary to make me stand out from the crowd, had no social life for 5 years, and for what? A degree that doesn't even mean anything... I have a crappy job, a car that's about to die on me, I'm not able to go back to school like I wanted (my "break" from school was only supposed to be one year... it's been almost two), and my finances are a joke. It would be awesome if a big bag of money were to magically find its way to my front door... but that isn't likely to happen. Right now I'm feeling pretty discouraged about the general state of my life right now!
