Okay,
first blog post. Pressure's on. I want to keep this brief and yet I have
so much to say I don't know where to begin. Let me just give you the gist of my
situation. I graduated college in December with a degree in psychology and a
focus in neurology and now I’m working at a bakery boxing cookies and slicing
rye breads. Quite a fulfilling career path I must say.
As the title of
this blog suggests, I’m twenty-three years old and I’m aimless. Some might say
I'm lost. But one thing I'm not is hopeless. It's true that from day to day I
use up every ounce of strength I have just trying to stay sane. By the end I feel
like that’s about all I’ve done… I’ve managed to stay sane. Way to go, Bryn.
But I
can do a lot more than that I swear! I can do so many things and I’m finally
going to share it all. Starting today I’m going to ignore the voice in my head
that says, “No one will care about what you have to say. What makes you think
that people will be interested in what you’re doing?” Maybe the voice is
right. But maybe it’s not. I’ve realized that the most important thing about
living is to be able to look back and say, “I went for it.”
So I
am starting this blog as a challenge to myself. Every single day I am going to
push myself out of hiding and into the world of "Look what I can
do!"
My
problem is not that I have no direction in life. It’s that I have too many
directions to go in, and I’m scared that if I choose one it’ll be the wrong
one. But it’s better to make the wrong choice than no choices at all. So here
goes. Look forward to seeing posts about… well… anything!
I promise it can’t be
more depressing than sitting through a half hour Youtube video about which
drugstore lipsticks to buy made by some idiot with an expensive camera and too much time on her hands…
What?
Don’t act like you’ve never done it.
Words
of wisdom for the day:
"If
you don't want to be criticized, do nothing, say nothing, be
nothing."
