It feels strange not going back to school today... |
|
for the first time in about 17 years, I have nothing to do on the days immediately following Labor Day. Usually I'd be in class or doing something school related instead I'm at home eating a Hot Pocket getting ready to pick up my little cousin from her first day of school. Yeah this is a really strange feeling...I kinda miss school

2. It's the best feeling in the world! |
|
I had a total of 20 years on and off, of formal education. Seeing school buses is just a small part of the thrill I get knowing I never have to go to a class again!

I still miss starting school in the fall and I've been out of grad school for more than 10 years.
What are you planning to do?

Ultimately I plan on going to grad school next year, so in the mean time I'm just kind of wandering in the forrest of life. I don't have a job, I'm living at home so I'm in no real rush to find one and when my funds get dangerously low, I will probably find something temporary just to keep money in my pocket.

6. I was gonna ask if you were going to grad school |
|
aren't you in sports medicine/sports management? That sounds really interesting. You would think there would be a lot of work in that area.

7. I'm in athletic training |
|
right now it is still a growing profession because not every high school employs one (although I'm pretty sure all public HS in NJ do or are at least trying to hire one). I love doing this job and quite frankly anything that I do in the interim will be boring in comparison. Which is part of the reason why I'm not trying too hard to find other work

It sucks and it's depressing. :(
