Shifting gears right now. I decided to try and go for another bachelor degree. Columbia College Chicago and Emerson College have publishing degrees, so I'm trying those two. I don't know where my life is going right now. The job with the United States Postal Service ends Dec. 1 which doesn't make sense since we're Christmas casuals and they're letting us go before Christmas. If I don't get into any of those schools, all I'll have left is my other job (which doesn't pay much like USPS) and then I'll feel like I'm stuck. It seems as though my future depends on if I get into one of those schools. This isn't what I expected for myself when I was in college. I thought I would have my dream job by now and living happily, but now, I don't see it. They're calling my generation the "Boomerang Generation" because as soon as we graduate from college, we head right back home. I think it's because we can't find any employment in the field of our choice and staying at home with the parents insure security until they get tired of having the kids back home.

I feel lost and I have no sense of direction as to what to do now.
