Kids, back in 2000 - when charm bracelets, slurpees and the powerpuff girls were all the rage - I didn't really have a care in the world. I was concerned with looking smart and dancing, and I didn't think much of what I really wanted. And now here we are in 2011, and Senior year is on it's way.
Do you know how scary that is?
In a couple of weeks I'll be taking the SAT, and there is so much soul-searching needed. It's not so easy picking a college or a major when you don't know what career you want.
I can picture myself in an office - wearing the pencil skirts and being in charge - but the business world is risky and in reality, I am kind of a coward. Will i succeed with the sharks?
I will, if I'm in Accounting.
Accounting, along with Pharmacy, Nursing, and being a doctor - are jobs that will always be around, because they will always be needed. Most are medical professions, which I am reluctant about because of the lifestyle...the hours, being on call - I would like to enjoy life. Of course, having a career should be part of life, and you should love what you do, because when you love what you do, work isn't work. But I would like to have weekends free, and regular hours, but I want the spontaneity of life in my work. And it would be nice to come home and not have to take work home, like my mom.
I want to be able to raise a family, and help others.
So wouldn't it be fun to be an RN? Working in a nursing home - it sounds very rewarding to me. But I don't know if that's enough to maintain the lifestyle I live currently.
You know, I'm pretty sure I'm going to figure this out.
Life is hard, decisions are hard.
Ever heard of praying?
It's a craze coming across the nation,
And is becoming very helpful.

love you.
