Typhoid's Advice Column

[Typhoid]

Dear Ace,

I would say with a year of of school/work, where you will be going into more school after that year is up, take the time to do something you really want to do. Be it relaxing, traveling, learning a skill such as speed reading, spending more time with friends/family or just doing generally nothing at all. I wouldn't advise doing a strict workout regimen with your 'time off'. Throw some weight lifting into that year, sure - but don't make weight lifting the focal point of your spare time.

I would say generally your list is a good list, considering it is a list of things you want to accomplish with your time. Now, not being you I can't say which you should or shouldn't do specifically, because - well, I am not you. I would say maybe try a little bit of all of it, while still having ample time to do nothing and just take it easy. Enjoy life. Relax. Breathe. Everyone is in such a rush to get set up for retirement that nobody really enjoys the little things that life offers when you slow it down and stop worrying about the future, or things you could be doing to benefit your career instead. However, hobbies are a great way to not only have fun, but have a sense of accomplishment.

Omnipotently yours, Typh.
