Unproductivity

What an unproductive weekend I have had.
I intended to do a shit load of studying - two midterms, a quiz and a paper all before wednesday), but of course I didn't!
That said, at least I wasn't a hermit!
I went out to two dance shows and a movie, along with a study date.
And I was slightly domestic.
I did laundry, first time all month I believe.
And I checked out the house, which I don't think we are going to get, but I don't *love* it, so I'm not to broken up about the possibility of not getting it.

I am ridiculously socially awkward.
Its rather embarrassing.

That is all.

Career possibility?

I learned something today. What did I learn, you ask? I learned of another possible career for me! Yay!

Pretty much for my entire life I have stressed about 'What I'm going to be'. I've never been one of those people who knew what they wanted to be and just went for it. I've always had a couple of career possibilities that I would tell people I wanted to become when asked the question of 'what do you want to do with your life'. Generally I would play it safe and say either teaching, or recently physiotherapy. Other times I have said things such as being a flight attendant, a stay at home mom (that one doesn't get great reception from other people!), or personal training. I have been told that I should become a doctor, and I have actually thought really long and hard about this job possibility before ruling it out.

Anyways, I learned about a nursing program that you could take after your first degree. This nursing degree can be completed in two years, but is the same as the normal 4 year program. The reason that I am excited about this is because this gives me the opportunity to work in a setting where I would seriously help people. Its like being a doctor, but with less of the responsibility.

I know that if I apply myself, I could totally be a doctor because I am smart enough. I just know I couldn't handle the pressure of it. I couldn't deal with being the person making the decisions that could potentially kill someone. But as a nurse, you take more direction and less of the responsibility (blame?) falls on your shoulders. The only downside would be dealing with peoples poop!

Oh well, I'm so flip-floppy that in two weeks I shall have a new career possibility to look forwards to!
