I spend a huge chunk of my days looking for jobs, applying for jobs, and feeling like a loser b/c I still don't have a job. As a person with a degree, I feel like an epic fail...but at least I'm trying!
It seems kinda late in life for me to be thinking about school again, even after the online classes I took to get my teaching certification. (I actually applied for an art teaching position today). I have been walking down this bumpy road of not know what I want to do with my life (besides watch anime... being an anime voice actor sounds like fun) I know I don't want to be in retail forever, and opening up my own kitschy shop sounds amazing but unrealistic. Then it came to me! Art Therapy! I was a psych major before I was an art major, but that means going back to school and getting a masters... which is lots of time and money. I have some more thinking to do, but at least I have an idea for the future....

I'm actually working on the same thing. Except I have to go back and take the art courses necessary. I'm already a teacher. There are only a few legit "Art Therapy" programs in each region. There is a great online program with a few weeks in house at St. Mary of the Woods in Indiana.
I have been following your blog and thanking you all the time for making me feel like I have some company on this voyage! I already have one masters and am almost 30. My husband is military and I'm constantly moving. Plenty of challenges here!
You can do it!
I like it!
Never close any doors and be willing to try anything if that is what you want!
thanks guys! I am researching right now, and noticed there is not a program in texas. i was looking into online. i don't really see us moving anywhere anytime soon...although i would love to live in boulder, co...anywho i may just have to go back to psych and work in the art bits later? not sure...back to research!
ps thanks again! :) it's good to know you're not alone and supported...
