Is it wrong that I spent four years of college trying my best to get out of school and now I want to go back. I think part of it is that I want to go back and fix all the things that I did wrong the first go around. Like picking a Liberal Arts major. So now that I have discovered that the history preservation jobs are few and far between and have decided that I most definitely do not want to live in Washington D.C. or any of the surrounding towns to work in the Smithsonian that I will go back to school and become a speech pathologist. Now I know I have changed my mind a lot in the past (people are starting to get the idea that I'm flighty) but I'm serious. I'm not flighty I just have a lot of interests in life and have never been one to pick one thing and do that for the rest of my life. I don't think there is anything wrong with that either. So the problem is that I don't have a strong background in the speech or communication disorders. I have several options...I could apply to a graduate school on the off chance that I will get one the 10 coveted spots that they reserve for dumbasses like me who apply to a program without having any background knowledge in it whatsoever, but who on a lark think they may be good at it, or I can go back to Winthrop and get another Bachelor degree and then go on the graduate school. I don't know which of these options is better. I'm thinking that since I have little background in this field that it might be wise to take a course or two in it before I decide to spend all that money on graduate school and then discover it was all a BIG mistake. Don't know...really confused...

But seriously...no one takes me seriously about what I want to do for a job. It seems like every other day there is osmething out there that I find that I would like to do for a living and when I mention it they just dismiss it like "Oh there she goes again" or "How many jobs do you want to have in a lifetime?". Makes me angry...anyway apparently there are a lot of things in this crazy state of ours that I have never seen...for instance the giant Peachoid right outside of Gaffney. I feel the need to drive there and take pictures because I have never seen this. Nor as many times as I have been through Conway, South Carolina have I ever seen one of the world's smallest churches...there is also apparently a U.F.O. welcome center somewhere down around near Aiken and also one of the world's smallest police stations is located in this state. I need to see these places before I die. Anyone up for a road trip or two...three? Let me know...Good Night and Good Luck!
