Am I doing this right?
So, I'm unemployed. Basically, I left everything from up North, including the little coffee shop I had worked at for 3.5 years. I'm beyond grateful for my experience and growth from it, but, I basically felt like leaving with my middle fingers pointed to the sky singing "gangsta rap made me do it" There is a point at a job like that where you start to get taken advantage of and well, when it's not your career choice that's when you leave it and follow your bliss elsewhere.
The job search has been real and I've had two opportunistic things get thrown at me, but one was so statistical it made my eyes bleed and the other was so superficial I wanted to *fight* the CEO of the company. This post is making me seem way more aggressive than I actually am, but I've been lying in the sun for the past hour and let's just say I'm sun poisoned or something.... ANYWAY, I am trying to bask in the nothingness. The moments of peace and the moments of discovering parts of myself I have silenced in the past because I was too busy. I have held a job since I was 16, which is nothing to boast or brag about, a lot of people have done that, but, I am fortunate to have a moment of not working to just chill and figure out my next life step. Grad school is officially a thing in the works and so is a job that helps me grow for the time being. I don't really know what else to do but read stuff that keeps my mind curious and doing things for people who have always been there for me. I feel as if I need to be useful because I'm not really contributing in the area of finances, therefore, let me do everything I can for you. Honestly, I haven't felt happier. Who would've thought that this unemployment thing COULD have advantages, I never did. Always a silver lining...
