Spring Break & the Unreal World?
Spring break is overrated. I’m not saying I don’t appreciate the reprieve from school for a week, but it has become this massive conception. The two words bring to mind college students partying in Mexico or skiing in Colorado. Well, not for me; I worked from 10AM to 7PM Tuesday through Friday. I don’t remember very many spring breaks that I actually took a vacation. Oh well, it let me work 36 hours this week; 15 more than normal.
As this week has come to a close, I’ve been thinking more about what I’m going to do after I graduate next year. I really don’t know. I think I’d really like to do technology consulting for small to medium businesses, but I don’t want to travel much. I just heard on a podcast about the digital information archival field; it has really piqued my interest, I’m going to have to do some research on it. So, I’m stressing about what I’m going to do in the future. Everyone keeps telling me that I need to get ready, the real world is about to be here. Well, I’d like to tell everyone, the real world is already here. I’m already in the real world. I never was anywhere but in the real world. If juggling college, work, and daily chores isn’t in the real world, I don’t know what is.
Travel
Well after 4.5 hours of flying to Portland from College Station and 4 hours of driving to Seattle from Portland, I’m finally here. I’m very tired and it’s been nearly 22 hours awake for me. So goodnight. More to come later.
Portland & Seattle
I’m going to Portland & Seattle this weekend & early next week. I’ll be gone from the 22nd through the 27th. I’m flying out of College Station. I love that airport. It’s so convenient. Small lines, comfortable security, friendly staff. I pay a little extra to fly out of there, but it is worth it.
I’ll try to post pictures and text about my trip as it’s happening. I know I can leave audio posts and pictures from my cell phone. But hopefully I’ll try to put videos and higher quality photos on in the evening.
It’s going to be so much fun. I can’t wait.
