I have always been a bit of a Jack of All Trades. Growing up I never wanted to play just one sport, be in just one club, or be in just one social circle. I have always had the need for more. This has defiantly made me an outgoing person, but it has also made me feel a loss for the sense of who I am. In college, not only did they want you to pick a major, but once I was in the Art Department, they wanted me to pick a medium, a concentration. I wanted to do them all! It has only been recently that I have found that it is ok to just "be Jessica". I have been reading The Happiness Project by Gretchen Rubin. She talks about the importance of striving to "be Gretchen". It is ok that I want to do lots of things. It is ok that I am an Artist and a Realtor. It is ok that I am a Homemaker and I support women's rights. It is ok that I get board with the mundane. I am just being Jessica.
