Admitting the final stage of denial: Letting Go

When you're 22, it's easy to bend yourself out of shape over school, or no school for that matter. Most people around my age have graduated or are in school. I admit that I was academic at some point, for a long time. I've also admitted that Lately, by having a life, it's challenging to even pencil myself in for school anymore. When I was in school, I realized that all of what I'm doing is getting in the way of what I really wanted to do with my life. I'm also usually never satisfied with my current situation. I'll feel like I'm missing out when I'm in school and not in school. But I did admit to myself today that I am taking the right steps in my life to get what I want, and it's okay that I'm not in school. As it has always stood, I'm not like them, and my lifestyle shouldn't reflect theirs. I shouldn't have to feel important cause they do when they get their doctor degrees and teacher jobs. I REALLY NEED TO GET THIS JOB THOUGH! A really good paying job by my side, pff, some people who go to college will end up making just as much, a little more, or less than me when they graduate. And Unlike them, I saved all my money this whole time, while they're in debt all the way up to their neck. I'll get to make a lot of money by being a responsible young lady, holding down a job that's just right for my age to prove a bit more of authority than I have been for 22 years. This will in turn, give me freedom to do the THINGS I LOVE, in my free time.

A blue-collared artist will do it for me in this lifetime.
