Sublimated Narcissism

5 months after graduation and i'm living in my parents' house. i graduated summa cum laude and have no job and am finding it impossible to obtain one. it appears academic accolades are only impressive inasmuch as the education you receive according to your major resembles the training you'd receive at a trade school. i'm 21 and i don't have my driver's license - i made the national dean's list and i still have to ask my mom for a ride to the coffee shop. what have i been doing the past four years?
i suppose things are improving though. yesterday i purchased a car with money from my graduation party. tomorrow i take my driving test.

my update reads like a tedious diary... but at this point in my life, i really don't have any friends to update on the boring day to day life of Katherine. I keep my room immaculate, read half the day, watch horrible movies the other half - not where i imagined i'd be a month before my 22nd birthday... but then again, i used to think armageddon would arrive when i was 16. ah, the joys of growing up in a Catholic household, dreaming of being a warrior for the Christ in the intense battlefields of spirituality.
