As several people already know, but probably no one that will read this, I never went to university or any form of post secondary. I probably could have made it in, but I decided I was going to do that 'one year off' to figure 'shit out.' well, that was over three years ago. I still don't know what I want to do. I'm torn between Law and International Business, since both interest me, and both could get me where I want to be down the road in life. I have a fairly decently paying job, in a field I could go far in if I wanted to, but it's not what I want to be doing for the next 30 years, let alone the next three months.
So, now that I've started taking certification in some specifics in the telcom world, I decided maybe it's time to finally start looking at going back to school. Here's the kicker, now I'm stuck deciding whether I should spend six months to a year upgrading all my high school courses so I can go directly into a university course, or just take one of those cross over 2 year intro-transfer-super-duper-fuck-around-town courses at a college. I'm not even sure I want to go to school in a traditional sense of the word. I guess these days I have the options of just working full time, and taking my upgrade courses over the lovely internet when I'm not working. I think that's the best plan, really, just getting everything at the best level I can, and going hard from there.
But I don't want to spend another fucking year wasting time to just fuck around next year once again. I'm not motivated by financial reasons, I'm not motivated by anything really other than a desire to learn something new and get into that field. One of the funniest things that attracted me to law was the idea of working 18 hours a day for the first year or so once I get into a law firm. I have a twisted way of looking at things I guess.
With too many options and too many decisions, I can see this just going on... and on... and on, until I'm too fucked financially, mentally and motivationally to do anything.
Time to buckle down and uh... think I guess....
They say it gets hard to go back every year. Sweet.
