So I have been working ever since I was old enough to, and trying to go to college all while keeping a roof over my head. Its been the usual amount of challenging. This past June I married the Conscientious Objector and the two of us have been trying to get our priorities straight. With the economy in the gutter and both of us being laid off, it gave us both time to think long and hard about the next move in this chess game called life, my move is to stop working and finally complete my degree, which takes a ton of dedication being that I am perusing Biological Sciences. I put my foot down and said “No matter how broke we are, I am not looking for a job and next semester I will go back to school full time with a vengeance!” Less than a month after I made that statement, I get news that the perfect job is pretty much being handed to me, should I choose to accept it.
Damn it! I am sticking to my guns! Long term gain over short term happiness!
