New Found Me!

As many of you may know, I can be quite a fickle person. Of course, I dream big and want to do just about everything with my life, it makes the "fickeleness" creep up and pounce on me many times. Needless to say I keep something on me that I can write a new idea in (be it a notebook, my iPod, or my cell phone)...hold on. I'm writing something in my iPod as we speak...

Ok, where was I? Oh yes. Blogging!

Having time to think a lot can be very dangerous; especially when one has an imagination such as mine. It can also be confusing, frustrating, exciting, and even devastating. You: "Kelly, where are you going with this??"  Me: "Hey, I'm getting there!"

When one reaches the age of twenty-one, one should know what to do with his/her life. At least, that's what I always thought. But in my case, that hasn't happened yet. I thought I had it all figured out, but I don't. In ways, it's thrilling! In other ways, it's terrifying!

So, I sit and think, and think, and think some more 'til I give myself a headache. Every day I find something new about myself and it's like a new found me! Now, I'm not saying that I, for instance, want to be a firefighter one day and an astronaut the next. No no no. That's not how it works with me. What does happen is that I have many possibilities which weigh on the scale of who I am, tipping and spinning me in every direction possible. It does make me dizzy quite a bit, but it's quite a fun ride just not knowing what big explosion of an idea I can come up with next. And it's not just in my future career, but also in the brand of my first car, what steroe-typical job I want to pay for college, to where I want to move when I move out, and if I want to live in the city or the country. So many options, so little time!

I have been told that life is unpredictable, and I believe that in a way. But, in other ways, that's not all truth. I have had certain things planned out in my life that happened the way I hoped. I don't think everyone is completely blind to what the future holds. After all, "If you aim for nothing, you'll hit it every time."-unknown
I just try to take it one day at a time. I don't limit myself to anything, embrace the opportunities that come my way, and leap over the obstacles standing in my path to a happy life. I don't know if I will soon figure out exactly what my life will hold, but hopefully it will be clear someday soon. Until then, I will keep pressing forward unknowingly!
