I'm in my early twenties. I'm done schooling and got a minimum wager job. When I was a student, all I wanted to do is to get paid for what I have work for. I can't wait to graduate. I wanted to get rid of long exams, surprise quizzes, recitations, memorizations, and tons of paperwork. I know, I'm still naive at that time at how economic works. I thought once I finished my degree, everything will be smooth. But I'm wrong. I am now in the future I always wanted of having when I was a student. Finally, I'm able to earn my own money. I was able to get rid of school works in exchange of facing computer all day opening excel sheets and sending emails. But I'm not happy. Funny right? Years ago this is my dream but right now I don't know anymore. And realization hits me.

I'm in my early twenties. I'm still young and have a long way to go. I have no deadline to chase because I can create my own timeline to follow. It's okay if I am yet at the process of figuring things out; it's okay even if I kept messing things around. It's okay if I'm in the middle of this strange place.  I appreciate my progress, at least. A day will come where I'd see my purpose and doing it. And by that time, I know I'd be genuinely happy 🍃✨
