So for some reason today I asked Troy what he didn't like about me. At the time we were trying to decide if we should be good and stay in for dinner or be bad and go out. I refused to make the decision, so Troy told me he didn't like that I won't make decisions. Big or small. It's so true.
Perfect example. I don't know what to do with my life. I'm considering getting my teaching credential because the yearly schedule is better and in just the first year I'd make twice what I do now. Sometimes I like the idea of being a teacher but others I'm not so sure. Then I have to decide what I would teach. I have two majors and neither of them are broad enough to help me pass a subject test. Then there's the issue of waiting for a spot to open up in my chosen subject (again assuming I can pass the test). I've thought about English, but holy cow! The test looks hard and it's VERY broad. I may get asked about stage lighting for crying out loud. Then I thought I could try social science, but my political science major covers less than 1/5 of the test. I am not an expert in ancient world history, thank you very much. Oh what to do. I'll have to take teaching classes, which I can accept, but I really don't want to take courses for ANOTHER major. I really should just find a buried treasure so I can stay home and clean my house all day.
If it sounds like I'm whining, I am.

I feel like I just read a post about myself.
I am kinda in the same train of thought. I kinda want to teach, but I have no idea what I would teach. My degree means nothing. But I don't want to go put forth the effort to get a teaching degree, just to wait to find a job. Or better yet, decide I want to stay home and waste two degrees. :P I have no idea. I wish I had advice for you (just so I could help myself out. Ha ha)
Good Luck with that. :)
Ruth you're adorable. Decisions are hard but I think not deciding and being in limbo is so much harder. That's why I make impulsive decisions and then stand by them ;)
Oh and be honest, if you stayed home you wouldn't clean all day... you would have to spend some of your time making a mess to have anything to clean :)
Oh dear. I hate making choices too. I'm sure you would pass any test you took just fine, you're a smart girl.
