Post high school (past ~15 years), there hasn't been a single time my 5 year outlook came close to reality 5 years later.

I've learned not to put much thought into it.

Currently picking away at classes to become a nurse, so hopefully I'll be doing some iteration of nursing; in what capacity, who fuckin knows. I live in the cousin-fuckingly-deep south of the US, so hopefully a nursing degree will be my ticket out of here. Or out of the US entirely. ...or nursing for the Blue Team™ in Civil War II and/or the Climate Wars.

Idk.

Shit feels like it's about to hit the global fan, but I guess until it does I guess I'll keep memorizing bones n' shit.
