time is passing me by

So it is offical. Tomorrow makes it a month until I start my last year of University. It is scary but it is also really awesome. To think in less than 12 months I will have my B.A. and will hopefully know what I am going to do for the following 12 months is pretty exciting.

The question "so what are you going to do after you're done?" has been coming up a lot. My usual answer "no idea" or "I have a few things I am looking into" is not really sufficing for me anymore. I really need to look into what I am going to apply for come the end of the school year. I think that next summer I am going to apply at the Canadian Mental Health Association again if I do not get a job that will lead into a full time job in the fall. I have also been toying will the idea of applying to post grad programs. Here is where it gets interesting. All along I have been thinking about applying for a Business degree or marketing or a Masters of Communication or journalism. But now I am giving some real though about possibly social work? Now hear me out. I know prior to this year I would have laughed at the notion but I really think it would make sense. I, A) really like this job and think I do a good job at work and B) there is a real demand for men in this field, so instant job. But there there is also C) the pay is not too great. Which is sadly a huge factor for me when I am working.

So what to do? I think over the next month I will begin looking at websites and seeing what is out there and what I can really see myself being successful in. Then come September I will get down to business with school and really get my ass in gear.

I am off to photocopy my T.A. application.
