Not as happy as I should be?

Hi, 

Different type of post here. I am a rising junior now at a large state school and I spent all of my sophomore year chasing an internship. Its really something I have been thinking about since senior year of high school, recruiting prospects helped me pick my school and this forum shaped what I worked on my freshman year of college. 


3 weeks ago I signed an offer with a European BB for SA 2022 and am happy about it, but still find myself continuing to think about the future. What products I want to trade, what kind of extra education I may pursue etc. 


I guess what I'm asking is do many people on this forum feel like they are always looking for the next best thing? Maybe I'll feel better once I get to school and I can finally enjoy being in a fraternity to the fullest. If many people in this industry really are always looking to the next thing it seems like this would blow but I am curious to hear what people have to say. 

 

Rip some gator tails during syllabus week next week and I promise you, you will feel much better.
