See The World

It seems that everytime I am back in New Liskeard, with nothing to do, I remember that I have this blog that I have failed to keep updated during my oh-so-busy school year. A year or two ago, blogs were my go-to time waster. But Facebook has since replaced them, which is the reason for my lack of attention for my own blog.
But with the recent perusing of some of the (more updated) blogs I once checked regularly, I thought, even though probably nobody even reads my blog anymore, I'm going to update it anyways.

So, I am officially a Western Alum (as I've already received the Alumni magazine in the mail). They don't waste any time. It's definitely a weird feeling, I feel like 4 years just flew by. I don't think it's really sunk in yet that I won't be returning to campus come September...especially as I start thinking about future plans, it's hard to believe that it doesn't involve a soph team, O-week, midterms, bad diets, all nighters, and no exercise. As much as it is a scary thought, I'm really excited. I had plans to attend Fanshawe College come September for Broadcast TV News Post Grad program but as I thought about it more, I am just not ready for more school yet. I want to travel...and I feel as though this is my opportunity to. Thus, I have concluded (I think) that I will work full-time for a year in London, then possibly go to Korea to teach English the following year. A friend says, you make very good money and it's definitely worth the experience. Then after that, maybe a little time to just travel around Europe.

I think it'll be nice to be in the limbo before I get into the real world. Just to be free and travel and not be commited to a REAL job yet. I'm 21, still got a lot of time until I am ready for that. Although, the idea of a real job with a real salary and after a few years of paying off OSAP, a real disposable income, sounds delightful as well.

I'm starting to see that the end of my time at Western (as cliche as it is) is really just the beginning of my journey.
