Somewhat. I'm much closer than I have been at least. I have an engineering job that is enjoyable, as a full-time intern. I'm also living in an area that I like living in (Greater Boston area). Then once this is done, I have a full year of undergraduate education left. That's when the interesting part comes in. I'm completely torn on if I want to continue as an Engineer post-college, or try and find my way into a managerial position or go in the direction of Higher Education in the form of Student Affairs. I do a lot of of that sort of work when I'm at college, and absolutely love it. There's something much more elegant and usually more interesting about working more with people than products. But I'm not sure if it's too late to seriously pursue that or if it's even worth pursuing in today's age.

I've also pretty much decided that for the immediate future after college I would prefer to live directly in a city. Some place like Cambridge/Somerville or Portland, ME, or even in the pacific northwest would be really interesting to live in. A place where I can be immersed in the local arts, music, and culture scene and be an active participant in them, like I am when I'm at college. I wouldn't even mind staying in Rochester after college, I love that city and have come to meet a lot of interesting people. Granted, I do spend a bit too much time focusing on...everything at the same time, which has at times impacted my health and relationship, but I think I've learned how to reach a happy medium on that. The big part about living in a city is that it would best allow me to continue to pursue my interest in radio (I DJ and do some business development work), and music in general (my roommates and I run a record label and make music as well). As for the label, it's a start but I want so much more out of that. I have a burning desire for it to become something that people all over the start and northeast know of (at least those that are heavily invested in music), and I want it to really develop a music scene in a place that is fragmented. The people in these scenes are generally awesome people. To think of living in some vanilla suburb is boring to me.

I've also recently taken to learning HTML/CSS, and plan on learning Python and Javascript because they seem interesting to me (insomniasexx, do you know of any good resources for really learning this stuff? I'd love to go beyond what's taught in codecademy.).

Right now I have an amazing girlfriend, great friends, a job that is okay, in an area that I like. But I still want so much more than that. I want to keep this great relationship and these friends, but at the same time I want a job where I am the leader, not a follower or a subservient to a project manager. I want to create my work, and shape my world in a vision that I see fit. That's where the managerial and/or Higher Education work comes into play. I want to continually be challenged, and live a thriving and interesting social life where I can walk out of my place and be immersed in something more than myself.
