College Countdown: One Week Before Move-in Day

- one week before move-in day -


Everyone on my college Facebook page just want to move into the dorms to start their college life with full force.

People on the FB page:

"Ugh summer is so boring! I can't wait to move in!"

"I can't wait to be on my own!! Excited to meet yall!!"

"All my friends are gone and I just want to start school already..."

"Uh...why can't it be Sept. blah blah?"

Pre-College Guilt: The Struggle of an Unemployed & Confused Young Lady

I like to think that I "lack direction" versus I "lack motivation".

The very first day of summer, I applied for all the open jobs less than a mile away from my home. This was because I still don't have a driver's license thanks to that mandatory $300 6-hour driving class they make you take (if you're a minor in the US).

I spent an entire week hunting down those minimum wage jobs and filling out repetitive resume's only to be ignored by all 7 work places that I applied to. I was highly offended. I felt like a newly dumped ex-girlfriend.

"What did I do wrong? Was I not good enough? What does she have that I don't have?"
