Game of Life maybe...

At this point, I feel like I have been playing the waiting game all year.

At the beginning of the year I was waiting until I graduated. Then in the summer I was waiting until I turned 18. And now that school as stated I'm waiting until my next paycheck… And waiting until I meet with my advisor to go to Greece... And waiting until my boyfriend comes home…

There has got to be more to life than just waiting for the next thing. Maybe I'm doing it wrong. I feel like in between I'm doing good things or things that matter but in the back of my head there is always this nagging. But in college my ultimate wait is graduating. Am I the only one? College is supposed to be about growing and learning and becoming an adult. But why is it that I feel like I'm in s a standstill.

As if all those things aren't monumental enough, waiting for them is pretty anxiety causing on it's own. I guess since I have been just waiting and waiting and waiting it gets kinda old but after all that is what I'm used to. I've wanted to come to college since kindergarten and I want to take advantage of all that it is. But, I can't help but feel small when I am in control of nothing that is influencing my life in such a big way.


It's extremely overwhelming actually. I'm just a pawn, a single pawn at that, who isn't even moving itself around the board. Thinking of it like that puts all my anxiety on high. Who is in control? Why am I waiting? Why is it so prevalent in my mind?
