things are good. I'm exactly where I want to be. I'm on my own, meeting new people, in college learning about something I love (photography)

i could just use a bit more money to pay for food and such.

No, not there yet.

But I think I may have finally figured out how I can get there.

So, that's good.

since college i have had about 10 jobs
none of them last -- i grow tired of them and/or burn myself out

i had a plan that i could be a positive force to shape the world around me -- not the world mind you but that space and environment that i subsit in. i seem to be real good at shapeing it through deletion or subtraction, as the parts that ever ment anything to me are the ones i toss into the wind, on a whim.

i figured i would have written a book or gone back to school and really all i do is drink and contemplate existance...

so really i guess i am not anywhere near where i thought i would be or what i ever wanted to be growing up. and i have tried many things i wanted and realized that i like the idea of them more than the practice...

but at least i live in nyc, that is one thing i wanted...

On a good day, I'm reasonably content with how far I've come given all the obstacles life throws in our way. The only thing I feel like I'm really missing is a steady income.

On a bad day .... I'll just say the self-loathing is intense.

Professionally, I'm on the right track but not there yet. I got there by moving cross country and taking lots of risks. It started with leaving behind my entire support stucture of friends and family to live in a city where I knew nobody.

I set out a billion resumes, read every trade magazine and hung out in areas where I knew I would meet the right people. In the begining it was lonely, depressing and I was poor as hell. Now I'm only slightly lonely, excited about the future and only slightly poor.

You get out of life what you put into it and I busted my ass to get where I am. College really did nothing to help m in my career. I plan on busting ass for several more years before I get where I need to be.

I like it. A lot. Not quite perfect, not at the exact destination, but getting there. Knew what I wanted to do at an early age (8), and have taken some time but seldom deviated from the goal. This is my vocation I'm talking about: writer. The rest ... personal things ... needs work, fine tuning. Which I'm doing now.

Overall, I love the whole thing. The whole big life. smile

Pretty good really. I find that not complaining, or sweating the small shit as much, makes you a happier person.

I wish I'd pulled my finger out 5 years ago education wise, but I'm currently in a job I love, with the woman I love and I'm healthy. So I can't really complain.

I would like to be engaged and 10kgs heavier though.

The answers depend entirely on when we are comparing now to. For instance, is this where I thought I'd be when I was 10? Hell no, but then at 10 I had no idea all the moving, health problems, and technological toys that awaited me in the future. But this is exactly where I hoped to be a year ago, and exaclty what I wanted 2 years ago, even if I didn't know this is what it would look like.

All in all I'm alive, and living on my own without the constant threat of death hovering over every decision I make. That's pretty much all I've wanted for the last 10 years.

definetly not there at all. i'm 24 i figured i would have accomplished something in my life by now but i havent accomplished anything at all. i'm in a dead end job, and all of my free time i either watch, read about or write about film. i just took the first step in getting somewhere though, so hopefully i can stick with it.

I'm close. I have the best kid on earth, and good job, a race car. If I could get out of debt and buy my own house that would be good but I don't think I'd be any happier. I need a different woman, the one I've got stresses me out to the max. Over all I love my life.

I am 29, living with my parents, single, and have no job. So yea things are no where close to where I want them. I have to go back to college because the computer field, well blows more then a 10 cent whore. I had to move in with my parents because my sister is a meth user and dealer. So we are now taking care of her daughter because she would raither be stoned then a mother. But I am going in for a interview today and I am going to college in a few months so hopefully things will start to work out. whatever

yes. perhaps things aren't exactly how i'd like them to be, but are things ever? i'm really happy with where my life is right now. i graduated with honors from college in may, work 2 jobs and can go home at the end of the day being content with what i've done all day. i have a rad apartment that i love, and i'm dating someone who makes me extremely happy. i'm going to disneyworld in november, which is somewhere i've never been and always wanted to go. i don't make a lot of money, but i make enough to get by. what could make it better? if i were in a different location. i don't love my geographical location. other than that...i'd say i'm doing pretty well biggrin

I'm starting to get there.

I'm 24, a General Manager of a bookstore and just recently out of a 5 year relationship. it was the fun kind that eventually you just grow apart into different people so no huge heartbreak, but it does take time to get use to not having someone to cuddle with.

I need more beer all the time.

I decided that using my time posting to the internet is generally a huge waste of time that could be more properly spent working on things that actually matter to me, and it was one of the most immediately gratifying and profoundly liberating decisions I've ever made in regards to my actual goals in life.
