Transient

2013 June 5

It’s weird to be somewhere where people come and go so often. Whether it’s to move back home, go on to grad school, or pursue bigger and better things, my current peers don’t often stay too long.

One of my housemates left Madison last weekend and another leaves at the end of the month.

It’s hard not to start thinking of moving on myself. When everything around you is so transient, that mindset is tough to avoid.

I suppose it’s a folly of our generation, in which we stave off long-term commitment and value mobility more than ever.

I’m sticking it out for now because it makes sense career-goals-wise, but we’ll see.
