You know how everyone talks about the teenage crisis being the uncertainty of who you are and where you’re going? Well my teenage years are almost over so I thought I was off the hook. I guess it just caught up with me a little late. All I’ve been able to occupy my free time with is thinking about what is important in life and wondering whether or not what I’m doing is just a waste of time. At first I tried talking myself out of it before I turn crazy, but nothing worked. “Keep yourself busy Olgi, these thoughts will go away”…and nothing. I mean, is it that bad if I do what I’m doing without knowing why? Because nobody can give me a real answer, just God…oh wait…God…I’m not even going to get into that. Why am I sharing this with you? Why am I here, in this world? In Baruch? Can I actually make a difference? I’m just one person. So again, what am I doing here? I decided to just make up an answer and stick to it so that I could just leave myself alone. It’s doing the things you love with the people you love (plus, as Phil puts it, not being a jerk). Cliché? Yeah, but it worked for now. After some time thinking about it, I realized it made sense…and then I fell in love with it.
