Considering An Online Degree
February 17th, 2011 Posted 11:30 pm
I really like the idea of earning an online business degree. I’ve never taken online classes before but it is something I really want to do in the near future. I’m not exactly sure what I want to study but I think it will be something dealing with business or computers. I’m interested in a lot of things but I want to choose something that will make sense.
I used to think a lot about getting a nursing degree, but I’ve lost interest in that. My mom works in that field and unless you’re a doctor or ER nurse it doesn’t seem like the time you put into it is worth it right now. At least with an online business degree I can use what I learn at my current job.
No Idea What To Become

Sometimes I feel really bad that I’m in my twenties and I’m still not sure what I want to do as a career for the rest of my life. The things that I’m interested in, I can’t make a great living doing, and the things that I can make money doing, I’m not all that interested in. It’s just a bad cycle.
I wish I was like my mom in that respect. She knew she wanted to work in nursing and that’s what she did. She took classes and then got a healthcare job. Now she wants to move on to something different in the healthcare field, but at least she has some idea of what interests her. I feel so lost. Maybe I need to take one of those aptitude tests or something.

Scared To Drive
December 10th, 2010 Posted 4:30 pm
Sometimes I feel as if I’m the only person in the world who doesn’t drive. I never learned to drive because I’m so terrified of being in cars. I would much rather walk or take a bus than to ride in a car. It’s probably a weird phobia, but that is how I’ve felt most of my life. I think it’s because I had several really traumatic experiences in cars. I’d rather avoid them if I can.
I guess it’s good that I don’t want to drive because I can’t afford a car anyway. Not only that, but I live in New Jersey and I’m sure you’ve heard how high our car insurance is. I bet that’s why so many people check websites like cheapestautoinsurance.net before getting car insurance. Especially in my state!
Work Woes…

For a while I was really enjoying my job, but now I feel like I’m back in a rut again. I mean, truthfully I never enjoy my job, but it was working well for me last month. I made more money last month than I have in a while (that’s not saying much, trust me!) and the work seemed less stressful, but this month things are kind of back to the way they typically are. Most of that is my fault though. I’ve been having the migraines and head pains again, so my tolerance, focus and productivity have been suffering.
Although my job is really unpredictable and frustrating at times I know that it could be a lot worse. I’m grateful for the opportunities that I have. I just want to stay focused on the biggest picture, and that’s taking care of my mom. That’s my biggest priority. Who knows, maybe one day I’ll get a different job, but for now I’m happy where I’m at. My job doesn’t pay as much as some tech jobs, but I can’t complain!
