What the heck do I want to be doing?

Greetings,
I have come back to blogging after enjoying two wonderful days off :) Not too much has been happening in my life. I have just been doing alot of thinking. I will be finishing my second year of college (2 and half really) and now I am unsure of what I want to pursue. I pretty well have everything I need to get into the three year education program at the UVIC. Do I really want to be a teacher? Kids are really what makes the job so enjoyable, however, unions can get really frustrating, especially when you are forced to go on strikes all the time.
Then again I really do enjoy psychology :) I always get A's in the courses and I think I would really enjoy being a counselor. Either in a school or working from my own practice. I find everything in psychology really interesting. Now, the downside to this is I would have to do at least 6 more years of school to get my doctors (3 and half to get my masters). So that is alot of school at a pretty high price.
My last option would be taking some time off from school and taking some real estate courses. My mother is going into real estate and I could learn alot from her and probably make some really good money, if I know what I am doing. Also another major bonus would be less student loans :) :) But this means I would have to work alot of weekends and I would have to have a cell phone on 24/7. *sigh*
There are just too many choices!! That's it I am going to become a truck driver! Beware all you skinny blondes who like to finger!! *Wahahaha* I will travel everywhere and get a myself a little dog to be my travel companion. Then the two of us will travel the open highway together with nothing in our way; only the wind blowing in our hair...starts singing...' Life's a highway and I want to drive it all night long'....*Grin*

Kath, I think you should probably rethink the truck driving :) We are praying for you and hope you find what you want in life and that ALL your dreams come true.
Driving truck, Kathy? Honestly, think about how driving in the city stresses you out. And I don't think your boss will be as understanding when you lose your keys.
Anyway, I'm sure you'll find what you want in life, and it will be great. :)
Somehow I can't imagine you being a truck driver. I am sure something will come to you, so don't be discouraged. When one door closed, a new one opens up.
Kath, I think that the best advice I've ever been given about deciding your future was in the form of a question. "If money wasn't a problem and you could just do what you want, what would you do?"
Go that way. Being a counsellor would be great, and pay a good amount and likely pay off the student loans too. I can see you doing both, but maybe not being a trucker, though the puppy may be a good idea for the future!
Okay so the everyone seems to have decided that druck driving is out of the question..*lol*...thanks Mel for your advice :)...I will be seeing a counsellor on Tuesday at Camosun to discuss my options...
