Hopefully, I'm meeting one of my last remaining friends from highschool tonight, at a fancy speakeasy cocktail bar i've been meaning to check out. She's been going through a tough time, with her mom being sick so I've been trying to reach out from time to time. Shitty life circumstances can be isolating I think. Tomorrow, my new friends are coming over for a "fermentation party" where we'll attempt to make kimchi or whatever strikes our fancy. They're awesome new friends, but also unlikely to be still in Montreal in a couple years. It kinda sucks making connections and having people move away all the time, but i'll enjoy it while it lasts! Then it's a weekend of work, showing bars to tourists and talking about Montreal. Thankfully, some friends are fundraising for a makerspace nearby by selling poutine - so I have a place to go hang out after work! Life is pretty good right now, but the fall is coming. And with it, the constant question of what am I doing with my life, what should I do this winter, and what should I do for money? I have some ideas, and many options. I think in september will come the time to make a decision and start taking steps towards the future.
I've been feeling this a lot recently. Everyone's gone in their own direction after college - I'm happy for them all, but I already feel nostalgic for times I was having six months ago! Best of luck with that; I'm doing a lot of the same searching right now. If you ever need to bounce thoughts off of non-judgmental strangers on the internet, you know where to find us :)They're awesome new friends, but also unlikely to be still in Montreal in a couple years.
