Decision!

Alright, I’ve decided. I have made a very big decision that I have been mulling over for a while now. I’ve decided to quit my job. I know. “Shhhh! Don’t you know this is the internet? They could be reading this!!” Yeah, I really don’t care. I am not happy here. And that’s the bottom line. So, in quitting my job, I have to leave Florida. That’s probably the hardest part of it. In order to keep my sanity, I will sell my home that I love and pay off all of my debts. Then I’ll move back home to my parents’ house and re-assess my life. I know. I’m 27, going on 28. I will have no job, no place of my own, and no future plan, but I will be happy. I don’t need a big future plan to be happy. I can be perfectly happy working anywhere, even going back to waitressing or retail. Stress free jobs compared to what I have been going through. All of my life, I have just done the right thing. I got good grades in school. I went to college right away and studied engineering. I graduated and got a job. Then I saved and bought a house. I have always done the good, responsible, right thing, and where has that got me? Working all the time coming home to an empty house? I envy people that can change their lives and do something different. I know that I worked hard for my degree and all, but I am just not happy doing this anymore. I am burned out! I think THIS is my mid-life crisis. And isn’t it better to have it now while I am not married and don’t have any kids? It’s it better to quit my job, travel, and decide what I want to do before I have others depending on me? Tomorrow I call a Realtor. Today, I’m just trying to survive.
