What My Future Holds



There has been a lot of thought on what I would like to do with my future. Over the past 8 years I have only really thought about the present and put no thought into anything after the current day. I was doing good to even plan something for the following week. Well having a new therapist helping me with my new path has had many advantages, and one of them is helping me get my ass back on track as far as school goes.

It took a great deal of thought about what I wanted to go to school for. I went to the school and grabbed a catalog to review what kind of programs were offered and see if there were any I would be interested in. With the help of my therapist, I was able to dig deep down and find things that I had passion for I never knew. One that has always held true, though I would hate to admit it, would be the passion for wanting to help others. There has always been some part of me that always wants to give a helping hand if I can. It's the part that opened up my home to many of my friends back in Los Angeles when they had no where else to go. The part of me that doesn't think twice about loaning friends money if I have it. Just anything I can do to help. Realizing this helped me decide on enrolling in a vocational nursing program.

Summer II starts in 5 weeks and I am both excited and scared at the same time. It has been over 7 years since I have been in High School and that was a fairly traumatic experience in itself. The part that worries me most is that I am paying for it myself so I can only take it one semester at a time, it all depends on where I stand financially at the start of each semester. I would like to have the security of knowing I can knock it all out of the way but I am not alotted that right now. The larger part of me however, is so fucking excited I can barely contain myself. It gives me a great deal of comfort to know that I am getting things rolling on my future. That I am not just sitting on my fat ass anymore waiting for something to happen. There will be frequent updates on the progress of my education. Stay tuned for more...
