Work & School

Finding a job has been more difficult than I imagined it would be. It has almost been six months since I last worked & that realization puts me in a bad mood. I haven't entirely spent these six months looking for work but the time I have spent seems a waste. I have had a few interviews in the last few months & each time I've really believed I was the strongest & most qualified person in the room, (they have been group interviews) but their follow up emails explain to me that they have chosen to move in a different direction. I know the right job is out there being prepared for me or I am being prepared for the right job, I just don't know how much longer I can emotionally survive without a real excuse for getting out of the house. I do have this spring to look forward to. I officially registered for a Math class at the city college & I am so excited to relearn this forgotten skill. Unfortunately I was not able to get into the Phlebotomy program this semester but I am hoping to build up seniority in registration for next semester. Math is absolutely my worst subject, I never applied myself even though I had an extraordinary Math teacher in high school, I was convinced I'd never need Math again! I was only half wrong. I like the idea of being challenged mentally, I am a little afraid of failing. Who isn't right? Do you enjoy being challenged mentally? Are you trying anything new? If not I hope that you might be inspired to take small steps in a new direction & see where it takes you.
