Tired of this life. Ready to fly away

Apr 17, 2009 11:13

I think it's time for me to be a bit more adventurous. I was trying to let fate take over but eventually got too scared and attempted to regain control. That was wrong and fate, that beautiful devil, tore control out of my hands. Now I have no set place to live this summer - my landlord is hosting an open house in my condo this weekend, and my ( Read more... )

I am not going to be moving in with my parents unless a job opportunity strikes up and the only way I can afford it is to do so. I will move wherever there is a good job. Living with my parents is just not something I see myself doing if I can at all help it. I can support myself right now and don't plan on making any less money ever than what I am currently pulling in so I think I'll be fine. And Rachel is living with me this summer - we just don't know in what physical house yet because I don't have a lease in the place that I currently am ( ... )

hahaha.
I'm not uprooting and going anywhere. I'm simply breaking up with my boyfriend and finding myself a backup plan. If I can't get into event management within the next year what am I supposed to do? Keep waiting. I'm working so hard right now to get the education and to make the connections to no avail. And it's a given that I want to get my masters at SOME POINT. I mean - even if it's not good for me I will get a masters at some point in my life. Because retirement is for becoming a professor.

My education hasn't certified me as anything unfortunately because you need hands on experience planning events and I've only planned a few, none for moneys. I went to that FFEA networking event and am now trying to figure out which associations i want to belong to. ISES, MPI, FFEA, NAFP, etc.
