Where I Stand

Hello-hello!

Today is the 24th of June, 2025, and I’m currently writing my very first blog post. To be honest, the idea came to me exactly 15 minutes ago, and the reason I’m actually doing it right now is probably because it’s the only thing that sparks a little bit of excitement in me at the moment.

I graduated from high school three days ago, and now I’m supposed to start this whole “real life” thing. And it’s scary — because it’s finally hitting me that those 12 years of structure and security are over. For 12 years, I’ve gone to school every single first of September, and I’ve never had to seriously think about questions like “What do I want from life?” or “What will become of me in the future?”

Yes, of course I’ve had dreams and hopes and expectations — but around two months ago, they all came crashing down, and I had no choice but to really look within myself.

It’s kind of absurd, really — how little kids are slowly prepared for school with kindergarten, then preschool, and thenactual school. But when you finish high school, the door is slammed shut behind you, and you’re just expected to figure it all out on your own, because you’re supposedly an “adult” now.

These are my thoughts right now, and I think that’s exactly what this blog will be — my thoughts, my perspectives, bits of life, and various mishaps along the way.

The sun isn’t shining here,
Yours,

V
