What Now, Brown Cow?

Decisions, decisions.

What'll you know? Sunday was my last day at work, yes they have been laying people off for a couple of weeks now. When my turn came, it wasn't much of a shock nor a disappointment. What it did though is force me to think about what to do next.

But then Monday morning, this other place called to set up an interview for tomorrow. What a coincidence! Nothing fancy, still a dead end retail job. They're hiring for Xmas. Ughh it seems to never end. If I get this job, I'll take it thus putting off my decisions yet again. The excuse of course being that I needed the money to make rent. And of course while working at this dead end job, I'll look for something better. NOT.

So job interview tomorrow, convocation next week. The week after that, I have an appointment with the head of admissions for grad school at UBC. Wheeeeee! That should be fun.

If I'm guaranteed a place in grad school for next September, the first thing I'll do is pay my travel agent a visit. Seriously dudes, if I know that I'll be coming back to school, taking a year off to travel and work around the world would not seem like such a bad thing. After all, grad school is a mature adult thing to do is it not? I will grow up and settle down in one place...eventually. But just not now.

Ugghhhh...what if that plan doesn't work out? What's plan B? To take off anyways? *grin*

Screw the conventional idea of having a proper /stable career?

Think I shall go read a little bit from Eric Erikson's work now. His 7 stages of development will perhaps explain my obsession with discovering a non-conventional career.
