About Eunice

Dear World (via the Internet),

My name is Eunice, which I’ve been told is an old lady’s name. In spite of this fact, I am quite young. I am a spritely 23 year old, trying to find her place in the world. When I was a teenager, I thought I’d know who I was and what I was meant to do by the time I graduated from college.

Well, I was wrong.

I graduated from WashU in the May of 2013; it’s been more than a year since I graduated, and I am nowhere near figuring out who I am suppose to be. I’m constantly struggling with who I am and who I want to become. This battle becomes infinitely harder and more complicated when my depression pokes its ugly head into my life.

All I know for sure is that I want to go into social work and help people. I feel a lot of joy and empowerment when I have direct contact with people and hopefully make a positive impact on their lives. I also know that I want to have 3-4 children and become a foster parent when my kids grow older. I think some people are born teachers, political leaders, etc.; in my case, I know that I was born a mother.

There are a ton more about myself I need to figure out. I have difficulty with many other aspects of my identity, which I hope to discover through this blog. Sometimes I realize how I feel or what I think when I read the words I’ve written, hence the blog.

I hope you enjoy reading my thoughts, and thank you for joining me in my life journey of self-discovery.

Sincerely yours,

Eunice
