Annnd I’m back! Lots of stuff has happened in the past few months, mostly for the better. My nephew has been born and is now almost five months old, my sister and I both graduated (me with my BA and her with her Masters) and I got a raise. Soo yeah pretty good I guess.
Still feeling kind of blah though, like life just isn’t going anywhere. I wish school would have taught me practical things like about mortgages and credit cards and real-world stuff. It makes me very cynical to learn it all now and wonder why it was never brought up in high school. So now I’m trying to get my first credit card as is my brother in law and it really sucks. No one ever told me that it was a good idea to get one when I was a student. All that crap in the mail I threw out because it looked like spams and junk. When you come from parents who are either first generation Americans or much older and dumber with their money, how are you supposed to learn these things?
I feel like I’m biding my time trying to get a “real” job with benefits and consistent hours because I’m scared to put myself out there. Can’t I have a perpetual summer vacation?
