Working Girl
Oh to be a working girl in this modern world. Studying for a degree is not half as glamorous as the guidance counsellor back home made it out to be. Tests, deadlines and creeps in lectures are not ideal. It’s kind of like going go-carting. Just when you turn around one hellish bend, there is a more intricate one up ahead. I am a tad apprehensive for when or if I finish this degree and get pushed out into the real world. I could be a hobo busking at Pepper Grove or a nurse or a cat lady. The choices are just endless. I am unfortunately not one of those people who were born with their destiny etched out into a clear and detailed map. I envy those people because they “just know.” And here is me trying to get a clue. However, I like surprises so I am open to anything Rhodes will throw my way. University is one of those periods in your life where self-evaluation and doubt is about as rife as tequila shots at Friar’s so I am not worried. My future is open wide. I don’t know where I’ll be or what I’ll be like after this but at least I would have had one hell of a go-carting ride through this place.
