My dad was asking me today if I was going to do my PhD, and I said, NO... well not right away. OH GOD MY LIFE. And I started thinking about it a little, so we shall see.
I always go back and forth on whether I want more education. Right now, I definitely want to MAKE SOME MONEY, but I wouldn't be surprised if I ended up back at school. Probably studying something entirely new, haha.
Yeah, I mean that's the great thing about our generation! We don't have to get a job and then work it for the rest of our lives. Things can be temporary! That's not really an option our parents had.
Yeah! That's why even though I am scared... I am not terrified. Or I am but not as much as I potentially could be? It's not the end of the world if I have to work as a receptionist for a few years.
Yeah, one of my friends worked as a receptionist in a law office for a couple of years, then got into doing a little paralegal work and is now back at school for a master's in education . . . and her original degree was in psychology!
So you never know. That's what I'm trying to tell myself, too. There's something out there for me! (Probably would help if I applied for some more jobs.)
