Early dreamers

I remember when I was a little a girl this huge dreams I used to have. Big dreams of me in the future. The years passed and the going got thougher but not enough to knock me out. I still dream big. What's the point of dreaming little? Don't get me wrong. Little things makes me happy, but I just figure that if I can dream I can achieve it.

Here's my point: When I graduated college, I never realized how bad it was going to be. Sometimes I wonder if I'm working hard enough, if I'm good enough. And that's when it happens, I hear about my peers working in what they want, doing their firsts baby steps in their dream job. It's really hard. I wonder when's my time going to come.

Firefox creator is only twenty years old. I'm 22, what have I really done?

Again so fast? I know.....

Half an hour ago, I ended an article for a local newspaper. I am really worried about it. I want it to be as perfect as can be. A few weeks ago, I applied for a position in the news department. That article is my final evaluation. They told me not to worried if I was not chosen because I could still get an oportunity as a collaborator or maybe a part-time journalist. All this experience has made me realize, I had it easy in college. I cried tears (of blood, it felt like), I lose many nights, I had to give up parties, a chance to relax to do some work. Still, I found all that to be easier than living in the real world. It's a jungle out there. Six people also applied for that same position. Mind you, not many people knew about that openning. What is like to look for a job. It's very, very, extremely hard.

My first

As life is changing very quickly for me, I discover a new "adventure". Writing publicly on the internet. Now, I know this is far from a new thing, but it is new for me. I am a very opinionated person, though I not always say it out loud. (Yeah, right)

Here I am in life after college. I'm still not sure what should I do. I know my goals, but my priorities are pretty messed up at times. At times, it can be really scary. You wonder what's going to happen or even worse, if anything's going to happen...at all.

I am at a turnpoint in this road called life. And, you know what?, I like it.
