Important decisions

[souljelly]

I have literally a matter of days to finalise my university choice for next year. I've got it down to a choice of two, but it's so difficult to decide between both; the pros and cons are pretty much equal. *sighs*

Anyone else have life-altering decisions to make right now?

Re: Important decisions

[(Anonymous)]

uurgh, it's an indecision which will probably be life-altering for me. I have to apply for a volunteer programm and I want to- but I just don't do it. I just don't work on it.

Do you have the chance to visit the cities?

Re: Important decisions

[souljelly]

Ah, it's tough right? Best of luck with yours.

I've visited both cities already, and I like both. Just gotta make that final decision, probably based on my gut since there are good opportunities at both.

Re: Important decisions

[(Anonymous)]

yeah, good idea! there are a lot of studies that show that people will be happier with their gut based decisions. Intuition helps a lot :)

oh man i sympathize with you!

i'm doing the first year of my masters of special ed, and i'm still on the fence about it.

it seems like everyone around me has always wanted to be a teacher, and they're so happy they're achieving their dreams. it's a miracle i even turn up to class. not sure if i'm sick of uni in general, or i don't want to do teaching.

part of me wants to do the Master of Social Work - but social work isn't as well paid as teaching, and it's probably harder to get a job. (not to mention our government is cutting every social service under the sun.) i've also had a couple of opportunities and connections with teaching that i should be grateful for.

the date to withdraw without fail is coming up BEFORE we actually go on our first teaching prac. I'm thinking i'll go on prac first to get an idea of what it's actually like. then if i hate it, i'll withdraw and go into MSW.

but that means i will have wasted a whole year.

ughhhhhhhhh kill me why couldn't i have done the "question my life choices" thing during my bachelor degree

Not as definite, maybe, but I found out today that a place I'd very much like to work is hiring. The position's within my reach and in the area of specialization that I want to get into. I met one of the principals of the firm at a lecture he gave - our views on the profession are identical. He encouraged me to apply ASAP.

The problem? I like my current job. I'm getting opportunities there to do things people at my level of experience almost never get to do, and it's a good place for me to be at this stage in my career. Yeah there are some problems there, but they're the sort that every job has (crap coworkers, too much work and not enough time, 'low' pay, etc).

I think I'm going to apply and see what happens. They might make me a hell of an offer. Or they could come back with "call us in a year and then we'll talk". I just need to do this in such a way that my current bosses don't know I'm looking - my firm has enough problems with rumors and suspicions, I don't need people thinking I'm leaving if I'm not.
