When I grow up

For over a year now, I have thought about "What I want to do when I grow up?" I want to find a career, not just a job. I am lucky to have a job with decent pay and great benefits, but I feel like I want/need more. I think that the possibility of my favorite coworker leaving has made this surface even more. I have thought about going back to school- it's just hard since I will need to find a program that is close and has evening/weekend classes.

At times I wish that I hadn't been so quick to buy my condo. I feel that really holds me back. I need to work full time in order to pay my mortgage and other bills; i can't just take a huge risk with out throughly thinking it through. Don't get me wrong, I love my home, and I do not regret buying it, I just wonder what if I had rented compared to buying.

Today, I had an enlightenment...I want to go back to school to be a sex therapist. I was all happy and excited, and felt nice warm fuzzies. I actually found a Family and Marriage Clinical Psychology Program at Benedictine University...I will be looking into it; or else, I will continue to feel stuck; pondering what I want to do when I grow up...

I still contemplate what I want to be when I grow up too. I just don't know that I'll ever really grow up!?

Good luck with school. Being a sex therapist sounds like fun!

That definitely sounds like an interesting line of work. I don't think I necessarily need therapy. I just need sex.
