No pienso mas en planes de 5 year

I had a job interview last month and one of the questions was what is your 5 or 10! year plan?  Well, that took me a moment.  I almost was going to give the answer that I would have given 5 years ago.  I don't plan my life that way anymore.  I realized especially from this year (or the 3 months that turned my life inside out and upside down) that 5 year plans are unrealistic.  At most, (after undergrad) you should have 2 year plans or less.  Right now I am on track with my two year plan and I'm content with that.  Anything beyond that plan, God knows!

A year ago, I would have told you that my 5 (or whatever) year plan would be to go to grad school, get a job, plan for trying to conceive a baby when I'm 28, save for a house, etc.  Now, I don't even know if I want to live in this country anymore. (This is not a bad thing.)  After getting out of my relationship, I feel like a lot of options have opened up to me that weren't there before or at least  not for people who were in committed relationships.

I'm still figuring out my options and from there maybe I'll formulate my next two year plan.
