Quarter-life crisis
So I've been told that people my age can have was is called a "quarter life crisis." I'm 23. I'm an intern. I commute a total 2 hours each way to work everyday and I am, and probably always will be a hopeless romantic.
Someone made a joke to me today. We were out getting food and this one food deal was about $8.00. Someone said to me "haha, thats an hours worth of work for you." That really hit me. I love what I do. The office I work in is great. My boss is great. My co-workers / friends are great. My pay...blows. Money is the key to happiness kids. Without it, life is pain...anyone who tells you otherwise is selling something. My life would be so much easier if I just made, I don't know, $16.00 / hr. That would be about $32,000/ yr. Having that much money would be amazing! I don't even know how I've survived this long living on so little. And I fear I might not be able to much longer. My internship is over after July. I need to find a job before then, else I'm toast. So, I either lock up a new job, move out of my apartment and save up money, or get a second job and work on weekends or something.
Sadly, I think I might have to move out. I'm not sure how some people will feel about this, but it might have to happen.
I started this post in hopes of diving into the quarter life crisis I was having, but it appears I've gone off on a tanget on how poor I am. Maybe next time...
