What do I want to do next?
Where do I want to go?
Do I want the things I'd like to have in my future?
Lately it has been a lot about schooling and traveling and the materialistic things I'd like to have in my life.
College: It is coming to then end of the semester-4 long weeks left-and I am getting to the point where I don't want to work on it anymore. I am really burnt out on it. I have no clue on what I want to do (Landscape Architecture, Interior Design/Architecture, Journalism). I like each aspect of them, but is it what I want to do. I hate how much of a negative nelly the media is and I am not sure if the sector for design has any more room in it for me. Will I have a job? (Trust me I've seen my cousin, who has a business degree, paying more for school and still is a waitress)
I fell in love with Arizona State's Tempe Campus both times I've toured there. But tuition hike after tuition hike and the classes I have to take are ridiculous. I mean how many times in life am I going to use y=mx+b in life. Really! I hate math anyways. I'd like to learn the things I am interested.
The things I want to do I can learn on my own...learn by doing. It's worked! I have refined my cooking skills with the help of the FoodNetwork. HGTV has taught me a lot about interior design and landscape architecture. But like I said; I am bored with it. Two people have said I shouldn't take a break from it, but I haven't had any fun it my life. (mom was sick, dad was gone, both were broke, and I was in school). So I don't know....
Travel: I love it. It is in my blood. I'd like to travel all of the 50 states starting in mid-2011. But I don't know. I know I have my whole life to do that. And would rather do that with my kids and my partner. But I kind of just want to go and do it now. Its dragging me to do it., though.
What I'd do is: Buy a trailer and camp all 50 states, except for Hawai'i and Alaska, which I'd fly to. But I'd like someone to go with me. Someone who I know and can trust with driving my truck I hope soon to get, and my life....
Other: I really would like to get a dog within the next year, once I have my house, but traveling would have to be put on hold as would culinary school if I ever go.
Then there is Real Estate School-which would be something to do, and I could still have my dog.
The other thing is acting. Something has been pulling me to go into it. Last week especially. I went to the movies with my mom and saw "The Bounty Hunter" and every time I sit in the theater, I want to watch a preview of me in a movie. There is one place in NYC- NYFA- where I'd be able to get 2-yr diploma in acting. (Just acting classes, not liberal courses)) But it is a expensive. $15,000 per semester which would total $60,000 in 2 years. (I know there is other school out there)
And the last thing is something simple an iPhone. I would love one, but I am not about the materialistic things. Yes, it is nice and would love one, but its that whole greedy guilt thing with it and the price. $300 for the phone plus $100 monthly for the plan, which I get unlimited. I can spend $50 on a phone and $50 monthly for unlimited everything. Then the greedy guilt thing. I don't want to reinforce what this country is based on "GREED." There are things out there I'd like, but I know I don't have to have everything out there.
So I don't know.....
Ry!
