I still have a strange urge to make a road trip. I don't know why. I don't even know where I want to go. I just feel like getting in the truck and driving.
That could be problematic in itself because when your truck has almost 100,000 miles on it, you don't know how far you're going to go. Of course, I know some cars that have 30,000 miles on them and it's impossible to tell how much longer those will be running. But that's besides the point.
If I had a little bit more money and a destination, I would most definitely be making a road trip.
Other news, I actually accomplished everything I said I was going to do today. Disappointing for everyone who would have liked to leave a comment mocking me for once again not bothering to do anything that was on my to do list.
Tomorrow I get to meet with my mentor at college and decide on my fall courses. I can't wait. The problem is deciding what to take, because, honestly? There are too damn many choices. I am seriously thinking about the Environmental Studies residency this fall. Even if it's a complete bore, I would still be able to say that I stayed at Camp Huntington on Raquette Lake, in upstate NY. (This probably means nothing to anyone outside the Adirondacks). It would be worth it just for the scenery.
I know I need to take an American history class and a world history class. I forget all the other things that will be required for me to get my degree, but I remembered those two. As if I didn't already have enough of a problem trying to decide what to do when I grow up, I now have an issue decided what classes are going to take up fifteen weeks out of my life.
Anyways, maybe if I take a wider variety of classes I will figure out what I want to be when I grow up. Hopefully that's soon. I realized a while ago that I'm not in my early twenties anymore. In another few months I won't even be able to stretch the truth and say middle twenties. It's going to have to be the truth - late twenties. Seems like I should have some idea what it is that I want to do by now.
My problem is not that nothing sounds interesting. My problem is that everything is interesting. Well, washing cars and working in a fast food place are not. But most everything else is. It makes it hard to narrow my choices.
