Future taxi cab driver coming right up!


Alright, first and foremost, I have no clue as to what I am suppose to do, you know the whole proper way in which to do a blog. However my whole life I've been told I should share all the crazy and mildly F'd up things that have happened to me. Not saying I'm the only one, but I'm sure I'm going to share them in such a way, it will be unique. I will go ahead and say, I am so random, one mintue I might be talking about how I don't know my biological father, which may lead my brain into start thinking of the time I went swimming and lost my top. It's that simple.



So this whole idea of a blog for me started when just this morning, I decided, I'm tired of working at my part time job. Don't get me wrong, I love the fact I have a job, because as we know lots of people are without one. But, I decided I would look into going back to school. SO alittle back story I guess to which got me here. I'm 26, not wait 27. I actually feel 18, but reality is reality, I'm 27, I'll be 28 in November. Ok, so I've been out of school since 2000. I thought if I go to college then I can get a better job. I had a great job, I worked in the jewelry field, not selling more behind it all, setting up items, ordering pieces in, working to replace pieces. It was great! Then I made the mistake of messing that all up. But what is done is done. So here I am working part time as a cashier. Not the most exciting job in the world, not to dis professional cashiers, because my bosses are great at there job. But I feel I'm best suited doing something else.



Ok, so I log onto the local website for our community college and start looking at the courses available. If I didn't question my smarts to begin with I am certainly question what fills that space in my skull. I told my husband I feel so dumb! I wonder if they have a test I can take and they tell me what I should be doing. His response was, "you pick what you want to do and you learn. And the last time you took a test it said you should a taxi cab driver."



Yes you heard right. In 3rd grade we were given this test on what we would be good at. I wanted so bad to be a taxi cab driver, and guess my glee and excitement when, BAMB! It said I would be a good taxi cab driver. I remember being so happy, I had found my calling. Most other kids had, teacher, doctor, blah, blah , blah. I didn't give one crap about there lame future jobs, I was going to be a taxi cab driver. I went home and told my parents we took a test about what we would be good at, and I couldn't wipe the smile off my face. However once I showed them the results, well you really can't turn a frown upside down. Let's say, my dad wished to never speak of said test again and that is why I think they waited till I was almost 18 before they would allow me to start drivers ed.



So back to the hear and now. I'm totally stumped on where to go from her. I heard a lovely lady who I work with explain how I would describe my, " grabbing life by it's balls" or however that saying goes. " I don't make decisions". Don't get me wrong, I'll make a decision for someone else, give my 2 little cents when not needed and have your life figured out for you in no time. But when it comes to me, I'm just not sure what to do with myself. So this will be one of many processes for me. Most likely I'll continue to put it off, but in the mean time, it will drive me, haha, no pun intended, into several deep thoughts.
