That I can make a fresh start is a bit frightening for me. With the summer seemingly ending, the need to make a decision about the direction of my career is much more pressing. I am, as usual, torn between my wants and others’ expectations. What is perhaps more troubling is that I’m not quite sure of what my wants are. It has been a confusing few weeks and unfortunately, I’ve been in a slump. It’s been a lady-of-leisure slump (which gets very expensive) or a teen-angst slump (which is sad when you’re 20-something) but a slump regardless. Neither shopping in Yorkville nor watching tv in my underwear at 2pm is helping me figure out my goals. What I do need now is some clarity and perspective - IN
