October was one hell of a month.

I won't go into detail, but it's been an emotional rollercoaster. Drama between neighbors and roommates, finances, school, and a few other things have been slapping my face like I'm looking down a wind tunnel full of newspapers. I pull one back just to get smacked by two more each time.

At this point, with some things, I do feel like my head is under the water and I'd rather not even come up. But I know I shouldn't let my problems fester, especially at this age. What I do now can determine how I will be living for the rest of my life. Or not. Whatever.

I have an idea of what I'll be doing after school. I don't feel much like working for others (unless they are clientele) or even sitting in an office for eight hours. I'm starting to reject a lot of traditional s**t lately. It's 2018. I barely have to leave my house, and even though that might be cringey to many, I honestly don't care.

I'm ready to live a comfortable and free lifestyle while still making my own moves. I'm tired of being on other peoples' time and/or dime. I also am tired of being trapped into thinking that everything is linear. Perhaps this is why I've been feeling so up in the air lately. confused

It's funny how much your 20s can change you.
