I'm feeling a little lost... sad... it's complicated and I'm not sure how to explain it other than I won't be continuing the teaching program. It would seem that my typical "self" is not teacher material according to the teaching program's leaders and apparently my academic performance in a couple classes were not up to graduate school standards ( Read more... )

*hugs* well I hope whatever's bumming you stops soon. I've calmed down some.. I don't cry when I think about the situation, but I'm still feeling a bit mopey and unsure of what to do with my life other than draw and write... but I've always questioned how lucrative of a career that is)

maybe preschool/daycare is more up your alley? you'll still be teaching/playing with kids.

don't worry, something will come to you. most of us 20-somethings are in that wandering stage too. so you'll have plenty of support in no matter what you decide.

I guess I'm at the advantage that I have some vague idea of what I want to do... I've definitely considered the daycare/preschool idea and I'm going to try to work on getting a job as a paraeducator. I can work on that artist/writer career on the side. Who knows, maybe I'll be the next Rowling.

Gods, not another one! I had some stupid, pathetic, weak, ignorant, asinine, horrible excuse for a bitch come through my lane at work when the last Harry Potter book came out. This [LIVEJOURNAL EDIT] was telling me that I don't care about the spiritual future of America because I work at a store that sells "Satanic" material. For anyone who thinks I might not care about the spiritual future of America, I'd like to say YOU ARE WRONG! Spirituality matters very much to me. I just don't want this generation to grow up to be pathetic weaklings who feel that it is their moral duty to blow up abortion clinics, set homosexuals on fire, and vote Republican. Furthermore, this is NOT a Christian nation. There were a surprising number of DEISTS who were fathers of our country. And those who were Christians tended to be of the variety that didn't insist on shoving it down everyone's [LIVEJOURNAL EDIT] throat! Sorry. I needed that. I know you're upset, and lost. We all are. I'm here for ya. And thank you. I REALLY needed that.

Um... I meant it more like I'd write the next popular book series... albeit it would be fantasy too... just not sure if I'd target it towards kids. Maybe I should have said I could be the next Tolkien. ^_^;

I do want to be a writer or an artist. It'd be nice to get rich on those talents. A family friend suggested I think about maybe doing something web-related. I definitely got a lot to think about.
