     Hello Everyone! If you read any of my previous blogs, then you know how I have been having a hard time trying to find a job after getting my masterâs degree last year. The job searching process has been a complete nightmare. I never knew how hard it would be to find a job. Itâs even hard to get a callback. For the last couple months, Iâve been thinking about going back to school. I know what youâre thinking; âwhy would you dig yourself in deeper debt?â Well, Iâll tell you why. I got tired of Navient calling me, and repeatedly pushing back my payment dates. I needed to buy time (literally). Thereâre also a few classes that I wanted to gain knowledge in because I feel it might help me in a specific market that seems to be growing in my city. I registered for classes about a couple weeks ago and I start my new class soon. Iâm extremely nervous to be back in grad school. If you read one of my first posts then you know how I had such a hard time during that last year of grad school. I was burnt out and I felt like I had a HUGE mental block. It became so stressful. I was working then so that probably made it worse, but it felt like my mind reverted back to a child, and I could barely write complete sentences. It was a feeling I cannot even explain. I wonder if anyone has ever experienced that feeling before, or if itâs just me. I second guessed every sentence because nothing would sound right. I became really insecure about my writing. I would never let anyone read what I was writing unless it was for school, and I didnât have a choice. As you know grad school is a lot of papers and case studies, and Iâm just hoping that I am ready. I graduated a year ago and I hope it was enough time to at least be somewhat comfortable with my work.
         One thing that will make things a little bit easier is the pressure wonât be as intense. I will be working on my MBA this time around, but since I already have a master’s, I wonât stress myself out as much. If I feel like itâs too much I can walk away and not feel bad about it. I donât know if this is a huge mistake or just what I need at this point in time. I always felt like everything happens for a reason, even if I donât understand it now. I feel like if we are on the wrong path in life then our paths would constantly redirect itself until we get on the right one. All I can do is hope that this decision doesnât bite me in the butt, and something good will come out of it. Iâm very nervous but Iâm looking forward to my class and I hope I can learn a lot from it. Just another stop on this twisted journey of mine. I hope you will continue to follow my crazy journey to success. No matter what the situation currently looks like I will never stop. I will keep going until I reach success, and I hope you will too! đ
