One small step...

I'm a recent college graduate, receiving my Master's degree in Computer Science, and find that the path I set on is not quite what I expected. There are several factors which I believe contributed to this, most of them probably my own fault. As the title of this blog implies, I've set myself on a journey to find what I truly want out of life. Here I will chronicle my discoveries and failures as I work towards pax aeterna.
