No kids, no lovers, no mortgage... it's a precarious state to be in.

I think it is a pretty great state to be in, for a certain amount of time. You should try your best to live it up to the best of your ability, learn something new, make new friends and have a couple romances (if you are so inclined.) I am forever grateful for the time I was able to take off before started a real career and starting "my life."

There is a certain amount of self-growth and self-analyzation that can only occur when you are unattached and you should make the most of it. Especially since you mention that you aren't quite sure where you want to go from here in terms of career, this is a great opportunity to do some things you may not normally do. It's a lot hard to take big chances to make big changes when you have personal, work, and financial obligations. When you have people and things around you, the risk that comes with taking chances or making some potentially unwise decisions are greater, which makes you less likely to take the chance.

Live it up.
