Bi-Polar Career

So...I'm having second thoughts about the job I'm currently at.

I mean, its a great job and I work with wonderful people...but I hate to be stuck behind a desk all day. It's just not me. I hate desk work...and I don't concentrate for that long very well. I just don't understand how someone can "enjoy" doing work that is so repetitive and doesn't inspire creativity. I do, however, get to be creative once in a while, but because of marketing and branding restrictions...I don't really get to be creative because everything has to look the same. So, therefore I do not really get a chance to truly be creative.

I want to be active and work with children. Looking back, I'm not sure why I chose the major I did. I love working with children...

It's not just that though, I want an active working life...I can't handle sitting at a desk for much longer. And it is taking a toll on my extremities...my legs have started aching....

I don't know. I haven't been doing my lunch workouts because it was xmas week then i got sick and you can't work out when you're sick...it makes you worse.

But...I'm going to stick it out for a while. I signed up for a tumbling class on Mondays starting at the end of Jan. so hopefully that will work some kinks out..and I'll be going to the gym when I get back from Denver next week. We will see. I also think that if I get invovled in a church with a young adults group and maybe help out with the youth group or something, that will help as well. I could really spend all day just playing games and running a camp or something.

I think I just realized what my dream job is....a camp. I could never really figure it out. It's so simple. Running a summer camp - why didn't I think of it sooner. Hmm...dunno. Wow, that feels good. Maybe open a small library (I love reading) and a summer camp. It could have a book a week that the young kids read and longer sessions for the older kids. Oh that would be so neat. But not be like a book/reading camp...be a fun summer camp, but incorporate books so the kids will learn to love reading. And they could have a workshop where they could record their own books on audio, oh that would be so neat.

Alright, well that feels good. lol.

Now, I just need to figure out how to get there!!!! haha.

Well, that's all for now-

Peace, Love, and Patience...
