It's refreshing. I talked to my little sister, Lauren, over the weekend and she told me that she is planning to move to Denver, CO with some of her friends when she graduates high school. She said that it would take a hella lot of money. But, to me, whether it actually happens is immaterial.
What impressed me was the fact that she knows what she wants to do: get an easy job and hang out with her friends. While this seems like a very short-term, and ill-thought out, plan, it's better than my plan (which I just recently realized was more short-term and ill-thought out than I had tricked myself into believing) which is costing more than the amount of money Lauren is planning to save up for Colorado . . . per semester.
And what am I going to do after these three or four more years at Truman? At this point, getting an easy job and hanging out with my friends isn't looking like such a bad idea, but do I really need a college degree for that?
