life after college

 The million dollar question is... what's life after college? 

One might say adulthood, responsibility, and being on your own. While most of my batchmates' life already started right before the graduation day, mine hasn't started even after the commencement. It left me wondering, when will be my turn? 

Turn to what? To have a job? Well maybe... it's my turn to choose what I actually want to do for the rest of my life. In my case, being in college left me no choice but to study, chase deadlines, constantly be on the move, but what if life after college really means breaking free from that? 

What if it means doing what you've been meaning to do all those years but you didn't because you are stuck in that loop. You are too occupied with deadlines to even remind yourself how to slow down, go out and watch the sun rise, write a poetry on your way home,  try new coffee than your usual, or even have time to ponder life. 

Maybe I was too busy to even think who am I gonna be after this I get this degree... and when I finally got it, I went back to square one. Maybe this time, I won't measure up someone's journey to mine. Maybe, I will take a different path that I haven't discovered yet. Maybe there's tons of opportunities and things that I can still explore --- that's the gift of the heavens for choosing education over the years and finally choosing what I can enjoy. 

The only way to find out was to live, rediscover yourself, and have a teeny-tiny faith that you will figure out life in all its different forms, all the freaking time!
