Being a grown up and having responsibilities is a bit scary at times. Currently I am still jobless. However, we have taken on a giant expense that is making me very nervous. We recently got an apartment in Springfield and neither one of us have jobs here yet. Phil is still finishing up his internship for school, so we haven't both officially moved in yet. We're still sort of living between places (which is another headache of its own).
So here we are, both with no income and more and more bills accumulating.
I've been struggling lately with the idea of going back to school. Here is my thoughts on that; I want to go back to school for nursing because I think I would love it, there are tons of opportunities for nursing, and I could do medical missions. However, it's more schooling and I'm tired of school. I went to college for four years and got a Bachelor's. It's completely frustrating that I am not able to use my degree. And that's my beef with Lincoln Christian College. I loved the classes there (well, some of them anyway), the professors were great, and I made some amazing friends. Oh, and I met my wonderful husband there! But I'm struggling to find the practicality in the degree that I got.
All I want right now is to find a job that fits my bachelors degree and also fits my passions. Aside from moving to another country and starting an orphanage or something, I can't even begin to think of what it is I would do.
And I fear that I'm going to be stuck in a mediocre job that I'm over-qualified for and that I absolutely hate. I'm tired of jobs that make me miserable and depressed. I want to find my niche, the place where my passions meet up with the needs in the community.
Is that even possible?
