    $37,000 for the degree I want.

    I think that's okay.

    Actually, the pay is decent good and even better if you work for a private company.
    You would make a GREAT social worker. I don't think everyone should go to school or that everyone has the ability to. However, and I am not saying this to be rude, I think you should go back to school. I think you're smart and pretty and level headed and empathetic. I mean you deserve to do it for yourself. You are too awesome to not expore every possible opportunity you can have in this world/

    Somebody came to the Queen yesterday and bought 18 tacos and it cost him $25. I didn't think that was terribly high for fast food tacos. Granted, you could make 18 of your own for a tiny fraction of that, but still, if you're in a hurry and need...18 tacos, it's a good deal. Haha.

    But now is the perfect time to go! I am going back to get my MA when we move because the economy is shit right now and I know I wouldn't be able to find a career type job that's a good fit for the long-term. Might as well make good use of mt time in this crappy economy.
    Plus, you can go part-time and start at a community college.

    yeah kink, you really should do as many hours you can at CC. austin has a very good and pretty cheap CC with many campuses all over the city, and the credits transfer to almost any texas school. it is a good way to save money and get a badass education, esp. if you're thinking about being a social worker.

    18 tacos for $25... now, that's what I like about texas.

    hey laura, we should inform hollie about the magic of Taco Cabana 'Ritas.
    there would probably be less clean up. ;)

    I'm actually going to look into going to the community college in town. It's on the way to my dad's work, so I could get early ass classes and swing a ride with him in the mornings if I had no vehicle. And if I still work the same hours then as I work now, it would be great, I could take a morning class every day and still be home in time for work. I actually would really love to be a psychologist or a psychiatrist, but pfft...I'd never finish the school for it, lol. My career dreams and my family dreams clash pretty badly. My career dream goal would be to be the head of my own psychiatric department in a prestigious hospital. Or to be the head of a full out psychiatric hospital. Oh my god...that would be wonderful. But alas, I am too lazy and too family-oriented to dedicate that much of my life to my job. "Oh boy, when you're dead, you don't take nothing with you but your clothes" is a phrase I pretty much live by, lol.

    They really have no justification or right to "disown" you unless they're paying for your school. Mine helped me zilch, so if they give me any shit, I tell them right where they can stick it. I'm having to do this shit the hard way and you can't rush it.

    Well if your portfolio is bitchin, there should be no problems.

    I do not know what your area of study is.

    But if you can demonstrate talent a small business will likely give you a shot.

    Graphic and 3d Design, specifically. But i'm an all around media designer. Graphic Art, Layouts, web pages, flash animation, 3d animation and modeling, as well as music production and performance. :)

    Like I said earlier, I dont really have so much of a problem finding work. Im just worried about the rest of the kids in this world who seem left out by the American education and certification system.
