So thanks to my best friend going to college and constantly barging me with details (and thus making me, un-intentionally of course, feel like a moron and loser), I’ve started to look into online schools again (especially since APU is run by a bunch of fucking morons who can’t figure out changing Malfoy to Moricia-Malfoy means my financial aid would go though no matter how many times I explain it). Due to the limited number of online university programs offering BA’s in History (my original major of choice), so I’ve been looking into Psychology, which is fast becoming another interest (yes, despite my absolute hatred of psychologists, maybe it’s from all the shit I went through, and recently what my mother has). I like helping people, and I think that this might be the best way I can do that.

It’s a slow process though, just trying to gather all the information I need on the colleges. But, here’s hoping!

In other news, I recently (day before yesterday), spent two hours writing a new resume and cover letter…yes I suck that much. But it’s done, and already on it’s way to Neopets, where I’m hoping to get a job as a site monitor. Cross your fingers!

That’s about it…except for an ordeal with Grandmere, but that’s best left for another day.

(why the hell can’t I spell ‘interest’ properly without spellcheck?! I know how it’s spelled, my fingers just keep typing intrest! *bangs head*)

So I’ve decided I’m tired of dealing with APU, as in, seriously tired, the stress is causing health probems, so I’ve put college on hold (again) in order to deal with other things. It’ll be a couple years before I get back to it, as I’m putting it off until we move, but I’m happier with the idea.

Mum and I instead, are both going to sign up for a CNA (certified nurses assistant) course at a local retirement home and work that route. It’s something we’re both intrested in, pays reasonably well, and always has an opening. We’re hoping that we can find two jobs together, to make it easier on us and the company, as it’ll save time and hassel, only having to create one schedule and always having a guarenteed staff, as the two of us can’t slack off work with the other there.

Also, the standard of care will pick up, as both of us care about the patients, rather then sitting around doing nothing as the current crop of CNA’s seem to do.

So here’s hoping all goes well! (famous last words in my life).

I've received bad service from a collage before, such as the teacher that told me to leave his class because I couldn't pay for next semester, or the teacher that failed only me in a class that is designed to pass (hmm, I have a lot of problems with teachers).

But this...takes the cake.

*huffs* I just want to learn, dammit!

(Note: My major is history with a minor in archeology/anthropology...I should have predicted this)

I can’t decide if I want my specialty focus after my general history degree to be archeology or sexuality (as in the history of human sexuality and how it evolved from a primal urge to propagate the species to a world wide culture of selling sex and/or repression).

I’ve always loved the cultural aspect of Archeology, digging up bones, finding out how people lived, how similar and different they are, how we’ve progressed…

But human sexuality pretty much defines me, excluding death in cultures, it’s my number one research topic/interest. I love discovering more and more about sex and it’s history.

But, I still can’t decide because both are fascinating!
