Question
It's been quite a while since I've posted anything on here. But I guess it's time again. Not too much to report, really. I have classes, including two seminars that are keeping me very busy. But I'm enjoying them all. My exercise science seminar is the best so far, I really like just being able to work on research independantly, on topics I am very interested in. Hockey started up this past week, and it is great to be back in season.
A question / request for advice from friends-
I am trying to figure out what to do next year. I am getting antsy in school, always being in books, and feel like I want to do something. But at the same time, most of the jobs I want require grad school or previous experience, and I need benefits. I have a few options.
1) Go to seminary somewhere, perhaps in Pittsburgh.
2) Find a job in the Twin Cities and live with Jennifer.
There are a few jobs that come to mind, that I'm not sure I'm qualified for-
Someone to coordinate work with congregations in a faith-based housing development program in Minneapolis.
A program assistant part-time at a chemical dependency house.
Do job counseling/placement.
Become a personal trainer?
Find a volunteer job I really like, and then find a full-time job with benefits that has nothing to do with the future, like working at a store.
3) Head home and work there, live at home in PA with my parents and pets.
4) Go to a random city if I can find a good job.
Does anyone have any advice or thoughts? I'm really not sure what to do with myself, if I should go to school again and just dig in, and then of course do internship work so maybe it won't be as frustrating with all books. Or if I should get into the work force, make some much needed money and get some experience to figure stuff out. And then where to go.
Love you guys.
