Doubts



Hello Everyone:

I had a pretty chill day, getting everything I needed to do done.  Always a very good thing.  I plan to do the next session of the online class tomorrow afternoon but I'm starting to have doubts about it.  It's not because of the first assignment, it's more like I'm still not absolutely sure this is for me.  I like the research and writing aspect of it but I don't if I can actually make living out of it.  I still think I'm just going to end up with another fancy piece of paper and that's it.  I know people who make good livings out of grant writing, working for institutions.  I'm just too keen on the freelance aspect of it.  Yes, freelancing is a way to get necessary experience as is volunteering at various organizations, doing whatever and maybe I can check out local museums for opportunities.  I am committed to this class and I plan to see it through, unless something better comes along, like getting offered the Planning job.  I hopefully should hear about that one soon.  My only concern about it is that the second interview will be scheduled on either the day mum is supposed to go in for a procedure or the High Hollerdays but one thing at a time.  I like the fact that I can do the online class at my own pace but I miss the interaction between a live teacher and classmates.  I know people who've done online classes, even gotten actual degrees and they have the same issue.  I think it's still way too early to be certain and it's okay to have doubts.  It's those doubts that keep me moving forward to find clarity.
