The end of the beginning?
It’s begun. The 2 years of my life that I’ve been looking forward to the most and dreading equally as much. Its a weird feeling to be honest. Knowing what the future holds but also knowing that the short term holds nothing in the way of a meaningful social life beyond work; and work is only a “scene” when it’s Friday night and we’ve all booked 55 hours in the work week.
So the question remains: how the hell am I going to get through this? If you know me, I’m a very independent individual that likes a unique balance of a fun social life and a lot of alone time. Now the social aspect is based on nothing meaningful. Vancouver is a large place, which is amazing in moat respects but hard to meet people because realistically no one knows anyone. The majority of people meet people through work but my work and industry doesn’t really allow for a good social life and you find that most settle down with a significant other sooner than usual. It’s vividly depressing to be honest coming in as a single male. I’m sure something will give but who knows when that’ll be. Im still yet to be “wow’d.” I know that life will be unreal in a couple years but for the next two years, somethings gotta give.
