We're in the money, come on, my honey, Let's lend it, spend it, send it rolling along!

If only the title of this blog were true. If it were true, I'd move out closer to the beach, But first I'd go to this baking school thing in Paris then come back, move into a cute little bungalow and open a bakery. And maybe a new car. That's it. I don't have high aspirations. I just appreciate the little things.

But in all seriousness I'm watching Gold Diggers of 1933. It's about the Depression and people suffering from lack of jobs and lack of glitz & glamour.. Sound familiar? :]
But- with all that being said- I'm applying to numerous jobs and come next week, I'm walking. I'm going to go to downtown and peddle myself. I'm just going to my resume out to every office (that i research beforehand) I still am not sure what kind of work I want to get in for now. I know I want to bake ultimately but my Dad makes a good point, I need to work in a bakery (before I decide that to go to that Parisian baking school because it's not cheap.) to make sure that this is what I want to do for real. But no one will hire without experience.

On the other hand to earn $$$ at a real job, I am being pulled in a 1000 directions. I'm just not sure which one will be good for me. Maybe the problem is that I'm thinking in the terms of for a long time not just for the now.

All I know is that the current job is bringing me down and they're giving me a hard time about my schedule. I had received some perks because I've worked at this place for about 4 years. First seasonal during college and now part time, but since I've moved into being part time rather then remaining seasonal, they've taken away those perks and have started me at the beginning again. I do care about this job but maybe they don't pay me enough to care deeply. So, I probably will call my recruiter from my current job and if they don't have any other job ( keep your fingers crossed) I'm just gonna go back to being seasonal. I think that will give me the motivation I need to get off my ass and job hunt. They say it's best to go in person to places so that's what I will do.

The criteria of a job that would make me very happy is one where I feel like I am making a difference, I get to be creative and it's fast moving.
Do you guys know what kind of job that would be? If you do, I'm all ears.
I was looking at jobs in the healthcare field because it would be good money and an intensely rewarding job but I don't know if I could deal with people who don't get better or die.. My sister said occupational therapy and I think I could go for that.
So far here's a list of the jobs I think I could do.... and yet am not doing, yet

* painter
*non-profit worker
*writer
*teacher
*occupational therapist
*receptionist
*secretary
*tour guide
*explorer

So yeah, I'm just torn about everything. It's something I need to figure out. But if anyone has any ideas- holler at your girl! :]
Have a good friday loves.
