WHAAAAAAT???
Apparently all of those reassuring comments that friends and family made about how "one out of four college grads are going to have jobs right after college" and Scully constantly telling me that because it's intern season I won't get a job until September, were all wrong. I am the exception. I have a job, with a salary and benefits!
The crazy thing is, everything seems to be coming together. My life is actually starting. I'm writing for two papers, one full time the other part time, I'm making money, and I'm doing something I love. This is going to work, I'm going to be ok.
All of those thoughts of dying in a box, never having a job, failing at life, are gone. I haven't failed, I won't disappear into nothing and be forgotten. I know I've been hard on myself for the past few weeks, and lord knows I punished myself by not going out on the weekends, but it's paid off. Life is starting, and I can't wait. It's going to be amazing, i'm going to be a reporter, I'm going to be doing what I love.
I'm a new person, I'm ready to start my life, and this really marks it. I'm on my way to a new future, and one day I will be a travel writer, I will publish books, I will travel. I can't wait.
