VeniteAdoremus Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 [quote name='heavenseeker' post='1914568' date='Jul 9 2009, 12:55 AM']i know what you mean, i'm sorta been thinking the same thing. its also going to be my senior year and the 4th year sense one of my high school classmates died. its crazy thinking about how long ago that was yet being able to vividly remember being in a class with her. it seems like every year goes by a little faster than the last.[/quote] It's called a quarter-life-crisis and it's all the rage Strange, I have been thinking about a friend who died as well. Not too long anymore and I will have lived longer without him than with him. In my head he aged just like me, but when I visit his parents it's full of pictures of this twelve-year-old kid...

Deus te Amat Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 I was born in 1990. I have such a hard time remembering it's not the 90's anymore... let alone almost 2010. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be 26 in 18 days and I don't even have my college education completed! I kept changing my major so I went back and got enrolled in a vocational program which I finished, but I can't get a job with it. I'm a Nursing Assistant and I'm certified an everything... [/quote] I thought about being a nurse, but then I am looking into being a cloistered nun, so I didn't know if I wanted to do that. I'm on the verge of looking into being a librarian. I love to read, but I don't know if a Bachelors in Library Science will suffice or if I have to get my Masters... I plan to be in a convent by the time I'm 30, I just have to figure out where...

VeniteAdoremus Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 I used to do PR for the physics department, and I was taking down some high schooler's details for our mailing list, and he was born in... 1994... you know, when I was learning to play church organ, that time. How come you're suddenly old enough to form a coherent sentence, let alone want a copy of the flyer in which I explain special relativity?

I have applied to be a volunteer at one of my local public libraries to see if I like it. The VHM stands for the Visitation of Holy Mary. I am discerning with the Visitation order, plus I am personally devoted to the Sacred Heart and St. Margaret Mary, as you probably know was a Visitation nun.

About six months before any of us started university. I'm proud. For years and years I was positive that the only thing I wanted to do was be a doctor. Then I realized..... no, I really don't.
