Confessions of a Recent Graduate: The Boomerang Blues

School lasts forever. At least, that’s how it feels. Until one day, it’s just over.

I felt terrified, unprepared and scared shitless. I didn’t know who I was supposed to be for the rest of my life. Time slowly dragged on after graduation, and each passing day reminded me that I was no closer to finding the answers. That expensive ass piece of paper didn’t make me feel any less depressed when I couldn’t find a full-time job or get out of my parent’s house.

Storks, Porn and Other Lies About Sex

image.jpg

The shit I remember most about high school sex-ed are the incredibly detailed and unnecessarily graphic pictures of yeast infections, genital warts and other sexually transmitted infections (STIs).

Honestly, my teachers made comments that made me never want to have sex… which was, undoubtedly, their goal.

As long as sex talks are filled with fear and shame, we’ll always view sex as a dirty act done in the dark. It’s time to turn on the lights. Moving past our reservations surrounding sex starts with talking more honestly about it and all its moving pieces — the good, the bad and the ugly. Because the more we talk about it, the better sex we can all have. 

And don’t we all want better sex?

Note to (Your)Self.

The Basics.
Travelling, especially alone, forces you to learn a lot of things about yourself, and it forces you to learn pretty quickly.

In that sense, it is a lot like everything else you do in life.

The Real World.

You know, you would think that with the vast amounts of The Real World that I watched with my brother, I would be above the petty arguments and little disagreements that seem to take place daily on the show.

You would be wrong about this. You stick five strangers in one house; there are bound to be conflicts--big and small.

Igen. Nem. Citromos.

So you would think that I would be prepared to experience culture shock. You would think that as one of the Vice Presidents of a non-profit aimed at decreasing cultural barriers/stereotypes, I would be expecting my life in Hungary to be drastically different from my life in the States. You would think that I would be prepared to be observed, stared down, and talked about just because I looked (and sounded) different than everyone else.


And you would be right.

A Trip to the City of Sunshine.

Seven--the number of days in a week, the neutral pH state between acids and bases, the number of deadly sins, and now, the amount of times AIESEC (that non-profit organization I'm involved with filled with young people hellbent on changing the world) has taken me to different places in the world.

  • Georgia

  • Washington, D.C.

  • New York/New Jersey

  • Indiana

  • Texas

  • Panama

  • Hungary

Well, here goes nothing.
