Dreams coming true..

Well folks here I am --
I am in Starbucks blogging on my new MacBook. Dreams really do come true. I think it is truly hilarious that I still insist on writing on this blog even though I know that no one (except for B) is reading it. I guess something about it helps me in some weird way. The internet (free internet that is) is not great here. Thank you, Starbucks for making me pay for something as easy to make free as ... the internet! You already need it for your credit card machines, so passing it on to the customer is pretty idiot-proof. As we say in Economics, your opportunity costs are very low. 

So some thoughts on Dreams coming true today. First off, I am fairly certain that I will fail this economics midterm. I was telling someone today--its not even the failure that is a hard pill to swallow. It is the awkward moment when they are handing back the tests, and you have to make eye contact with the Professor/TA as they show you your failure. It is a weird situation that makes me really the most awkward person EVER. I don't know, I hope that he will be able to give me some advice on how to pass this hell of a class. 

I actually did the reading for today. 

I was also thinking more specifically about articulating dreams, articulating what you want out of life. I get this email blog called a Motivation Tool Kit that emails me (once every three weeks or so,) tips for motivating yourself to go after your dreams. It is pretty cheesy, but still good. One of the most important things that they emphasize is the need to constantly be aware of what you want your end-goal to be--what you want at the end of your proverbial rainbow. I have some ideas, but am completely the typical 23 year old. I am LOST. I know that I am not the only one in my position. I know because it is a constant topic of conversation in my G-Chat instead of work universe. People are constantly complaining that college was not what they thought, that NYU leaves you out in the cold with little idea of where to go. 

They could all be right. 

They could all be wrong. 

It could completely be 100% our job to figure it out, or it could be other people's to share their wisdom and advice to help us along the way. OR it could be both. I try to list in my mind sometimes the things that I want to accomplish, but the lists always grow bigger than I am. It turns from "get a good grade on my economics exam" to "curing world hunger" I don't know what it is that does this exactly.. 

maybe I will try to work on a more realistic list. I can check one thing off of it---
