♪♫ Riders On The Storm - The Doors
So... I quit school. I only had two weeks of class left, so I know it seems insane. However, I was experiencing burn out. I felt like I couldn't function. I had nothing left to give. Therefore, I was unable to complete my last major "test" to pass the semester. Its okay though. I can go back next year and re-do the semester so that I can graduate. Its only two months long, so its not a big deal at all. I really need this break. I plan on doing nothing for two months, then I'm going to find a part time job until I start my last semester next year. I need some time to rest my mind and bounce back from the severe stress I endured.
To be honest, I'm not sure that I want to be a child and youth care worker anymore. Working with troubled youth is very challenging when I'm also struggling with PTSD. I'm thinking I will graduate next year, get a child and youth care job, then try to find a different job that is not so emotionally demanding. I will likely be moving in with my boyfriend next year, so I will be looking for a job in his town rather than the city where I live. I just want a job that allows me to live a relaxing life. I've already been through so much in my life and now I just want to be at peace. With my diploma, I am also eligible to work with adults, seniors and babies in various ways. Not sure exactly what I'm going to go with yet.
Other than that, my life has been quite busy lately. I'm packing to move right now. All my stuff is being moved on Saturday, but I am still staying for another week due to some commitments that I previously made. Its been a struggle to get everything done, because I am currently sick with a cold and have been for a couple weeks now. Ugh. It just won't go away! However, on a happier note, Rob Zombie is making a sequel to Devil's Rejects! I am beyond excited! Since Kara and I always watch his films together, I'm gonna have to visit her when it comes out, so that we can watch it together!
Last week, my cousin's dog BooBoo had surgery to remove one of his eyes. He had an ulcer that kept getting worse. I feel so bad for him. It looks pretty gross right now, but it will heal and look much better in a month or so. I bought him a teddy bear because I felt so bad. Poor pup!
Also, I have been debating on whether or not I want to spend $120 on three different Blu-ray things; 3rd season of Twin Peaks, Blade Runner 2049 and David Lynch: The Art Life. I haven't bought Blu-rays or DVDs in a really long time and I now have extra money since I'm not in school. Hmm... I'm going to think about it for a little while longer.
That is it for now. I will blog again soon!
