When I grow up I wanna be a_____
Go To College! Go To College! Go To College!
That's what was drilled in my head since I could even understand it, which should be rightfully so BUT I do not think I was prepared for the real world as far as finding a career. My parents aren't to blame because I don't think you can blame anyone but the economy for no jobs. On the verge of graduating with a degree in Sociology and a minor in English, I'm left with this question- WHAT NOW!?
I do believe in getting an education for the sake of just that, an education! So you're not walking around sounding and spelling like a flaming idiot! Sociology has taught me ways to accept, think, and look at the world, people, and cultures. Liberal Arts degrees have such a wide array of different courses you have to take in the curriculum. So I know a whole lot about a lot of different things here and there but collectively a whole lot of nothing hahahah =)
My dream was to get a doctorate in counselors education and become a Therapist. I don't have the means to just hop into grad school like I thought I was going to so that leaves me with what?? I need to join the workforce. But where? And in poor ass Louisiana... -_- Tell me about it!!! My dad expects me to call him any day now saying, "Daddy I have a job locked down! Chase has hired me as their head Human resources manager and director and they're holding the job for me until I graduate!" Yea back to the real world!
I'm indecisive when it comes to choosing what drink I want with my combo meal! How the hell do I make a final decision when it comes to a career???
Graduating college is a very scary feeling for me. I've been in school since Kindergarden hahaha and now it's all over (until grad school). I'm used to goals that are somewhat close and short term. Ex: You are in school and the goal is that degree! But when you get a job that you're not sure what you're career will be... what's the next goal? Retirement, raises?
Ugh I don't want to be a grown up =(((
And having a Pinterest in this crucial decisive point in my life IS NOT helping! Pinterest makes me want to be a; chef, dessert baker, florist, wedding planner, teacher, and stylist!
I firmly believe in doing what you love. I think there are two types of jobs people will stay at, a job that pays the big bucks, or one that you love. Everyone else is just getting by miserably! I refuse to be that person!!! There are only 24 hours in a day. You're asleep for 8 of them (if you're lucky) and working for another 8! Thats over half the day!!! Can you imagine going to work everyday that you utterly hate & it's not like they're paying you so damn well it's not worth complaining over!! I would be miserabel at a job that made me a millionaire! <= I know I'm a sellout!!
One of my great quotes=> "Money won't guarantee happiness, but I guarantee being broke brings sadness!"
So If I want a job that will make me Rich and miserable I need to go back to school. Since I can't do since I don't have thousands of dollars lying around, I need to find a job that I enjoy! Shit, if i'm going to just be getting by comfortably, I should at least LIKE my job right??
When I grow up I want to be______________???
A rockstar?
A lotterywinner?
I HAVE NO CLUE!!!!!!!!!!
Someone help =/
