Job Search

So finally, after going to U on and off for 5 years, I have finally graduated. And the drumroll questions is: "What now?" It is an unfortunate question that seems to plague the majority of graduates, and often tempts them to run back to school instead of facing "real life".

I, on the other hand, embraced the school-free life with open arms... for a total of almost 2 weeks.

Yes, unfortunately I succumbed to my usual past-time of signing up for classes that I will later regret. Hopefully this time, however, since I have no pressure of actually graduating, I can enjoy these moments and drink the nourishment that learning provides for my brain.

For those who are interested: I am taking Math 10 and Abnormal Psychology by correspondence. I haven't started yet, as I am waiting for the courses to actually arrive, but I'm pretty stoked to learn more.

Oh great. HAHAHA. I just read the e-mail that they sent me, that I have to ORDER the course materials first. I thought it was automatic with course registration, but apparently not. Dumbasses... Oh! And the course materials cost more than the courses themselves! I guess I'm the dumbass now. *shakes fist at self for choosing print (expensive) instead of web (free) versions!*

As for job hunting...

Here are the options of my future that I have so far mapped out:

1. Quebec
Although I haven't received confirmation of an interview yet, I had an interview last year and was waitlisted. I'm sure I'll receive an interview this year, and I noticed they were receiving applications much later than the deadline, so I'm assuming that they have extra positions that need to be filled.

Pros:
- learn French
- make decent money part-time
- travel

Cons:
- moving my entire household: husband, horses, dog, cat, & now bunny
- giving up everything I've recently established here: 2 volunteering places, vaulting, dance, background work, & tutoring.

It seems the cons outweigh the pros, but I really want to learn French.


2. Mexico Logistics Officer
This is a job I just applied for. It's a good wage, includes variety, and has benefits after 3 months. I'm not sure exactly where it's located, but I'm willing to travel for it.

Pros:
- practice Spanish on a daily basis
- awesome on resume
- make good money, get benefits covered
- keep established life for a little while longer

Cons:
- don't learn French
- may be a long commute
- might not get hired


3. Animal Health Technician
This would require me going back to school full time. This isn't exactly what I had in mind, but if the previous two fall through. Why not? Downside: I would have to upgrade my highschool math.

Pros:
- learn to be a vet assistant
- save money in the future
- almost guaranteed job after graduation
- only 2 years

Cons:
- 2 more years of SCHOOL!
- have to upgrade math
- sucky commute every day
- no job = no money!

4. Be lazy
I think that explains it all.

Pros:
- continue with the life I have set out for me

Cons:
- I'm a continual planner, so there's no way this could last for long
- no job = no money!


So, my non-existent audience, what do you suggest?
