Of Applications and Life

I finished my application for TASP last Thursday night. It took forever to finish, mostly because my mom is such a meticulous editor. For the app you had to write essays about various questions. One of the questions was what are you plans for the future? I had no idea. I sat there staring at the screen for about a half an hour thinking about what I want to do besides college. I realized I have become so focused on college that I have lost all my other aspirations and goals. I think that might be one reason why I am so unhappy sometimes, because I have no hopes. Not that I have no hope, just I don't have a particular goal to look to. I wrote some bullshit about wanting to teach that only a part of me really meant. I turned in the essay but I was still unsatisfied. Then two nights ago I figured it out. I want to join the Peace Corps. I want to get out of hear. I want to help people. I want to see the world. So I guess I want to join the Peace Corps. These past two days have been great. So I guess all that stuff about having goals was true.
