I want a completely different life. COMPLETELY. I am a Junior at the University of Notre Dame and I don’t have any passion for anything. In one year, I want to have regained my passion for something. I used to love mustic and medicine, but I hit a brick last semester and got torn up by my classes. Now I am taking 4 classes (including physics which doesn’t pertain to my major anymore) which I can’t seem to find any zeal for. I just want to wake up and have a drive again! A passion. Anything else in my life can be going to crap, but all I want is a passion… I want to be passionate about something again, like I used to be. Now all that I can think about is how to do the least amount of work and still get by. It’s a terrible way to live really and it’s not really living. i want to put effort into something, but whenever i try to, my body shuts down and I go into paralysis of thought. I need to break that block wide open! Any suggestions?? Especially with graduating in less than a year and a half, I don’t wanna be stuck at a desk job slaving away for no purpose. I guess I seek purpose and drive. 4 years ago

In about 1 month I did all of these things:
- graduated from college
- got married
- moved to a new state where my husband and I didn’t know anyone else
- started a new job in a new career
Needless to say, my life completely changed. It was been wonderful though. We’ve been here for 4 years and I’ve been working in the same place since that time. We’re happy, so I guess that means it was a good change for us! 5 years ago

if you put the effort in… it will happen 5 years ago

and my life IS completely different! When I wrote this, I was unemployed, had moved to a different province away from many of my friends and was living with my mother. I am now working in a job I love, have made some new friends here and have recently bought a house of my own! While I have not found the love of my life, I am happy on my own-and that is what’s important :) 5 years ago

i want to have a boyfirned! 5 years ago

Nothing’s change. It’s been a year….

Nonetheless, I love myself more than I love myself last year. Started to control my temper, don’t easily get angry, make a lot of new friends…

It’s hard cos I need to motivate myself everyday…Don’t wanna fall anymore…move forward…

hmm… 6 years ago

I just dropped one subject for this semester. Silly decision, but I just couldn’t take it anymore. I don’t want to graduate just because I have to or because my family forces me to. I want to do something that I can be proud of. Life is more than what is written on the text book.

So I have to wait for a year in order to take the same subject again. I haven’t decided what I should do in a year from now. 2006 could be the worst year of my life. But whatever the outcome is, I’m glad for this ‘silly decision’. It’s the time learn from my mistake, and understand what I really need. 7 years ago

Well considering I now have a completely different life than I had a year ago, anything is possible! In the past year I quit my job, got dumped by the man I thought was the love of my life, moved back in to my mother’s place in another province leaving most of my friends. Sounds bad, and it’s had it’s moments, but I’m pretty optimistic overall. I have contemplated the move for a while but the job/love things I was unprepared for. As for the job, I just got to the point where I could not go back to that unhealthy environment so I felt a sense of relief. Being dumped in retrospect, while it was harsh, was for the best. I discovered that I had fallen for the person he had portrayed himself to be, and not who he was. I would never have chosen to be with an alcoholic who physically abused his previous girlfriend (found that out after the dump). I admit that I have issues myself, but not NEAR to the extent that he had. So when I think of my ‘new’ life in a year from now, I hope to meet someone who is sane and stable. I hope to have a job that I am happy with and I hope to own a home. So many other things too which are included in my 43things-It may be a stretch, but I’m ready for the challenge. 7 years ago
