life is all about to change...

So I've been doing alot of thinking about the future lately. Life right now sucks...I have education but not enough to really do anything with except work in a call center... and that BLOWS. I'm at advantage now and I'm quitting tomorrow... fuck it's bad.
So I have decided to go back to school. Again. This time I'm planning on taking a course from Holland College. Probably young child care and education. Or practical nursing. This is probably what I should have taken the first time around. So my lease is up here at the end of April and I've already talked to mom about everything. I'm moving back in with her and dad. It's cheaper that way. Plus I got a job at Vision Research doing phone surveys in the evenings starting at 6:30pm. It pays 8 bucks and hour. Not too bad. My bills will greatly decrease living with mom and Emma will be able to sleep in her own bed at nights while mom watches her and I work. I am actually really excited about this. We even worked out a deal with dad to put a door on the basement so I can keep the kitties! I'm very happy about that. I know there are some sacrafices I have to make right now... like moving back in with my parents at age 24 but it's for a greater good. I want a career, not a job. I want something I can retire from, have a pension from. I want to be able to provide Emma with everything she needs without resorting to asking for money from mom. I want to do it on my own and I think this is the right way to do it.
I'm really hoping Morgan is gonna jump on this school bandwagon with me... he's very smart and I know he can make something great of himself if he applies himself. Mom asked if Morgan would be moving in with us too but that's a big no right now. Our relationship isn't ready for that yet. He's also working at Vision with me so I'll still get to see him and spend nights with him.
I'm very excited to start all of this. I need to get my application in soon if I'm going to Holland College. I think this is what I need to pick me up. It's hard not to be bummed out all the time when you feel like you're not going anywhere in life.
