How Its Made – My Future

I’m 31 and still don’t know what I want to do with my life. Mostly, I want to win the lottery and open an art center in Downtown Glendale. If I don’t win the lottery, I need a back-up plan. High end wedding photography (2 or 3 a month) would be ideal! Next to that, a career in Human Resources – hiring, developing, training and mentoring would be something I would really enjoy.

So, how I do I create this life? Well, I play the lottery once a week or so (if you don’t play, you can’t win). I also job hunt constantly. I need a reasonable salary to stay alive, and a more than that if I want to enjoy my life. That’s the hard part… there are few jobs that pay reasonable wages right now that I qualify for, especially with so many unemployed workers as my competition.

I’m really considering an MBA again. Here’s the deal.. if I end up getting the job at NBC, I’ll need to go to school online (as I work til almost 7pm). Know of any credible schools that offer online MBA’s at a low tuition rate? Hmmm.

If I don’t end up getting the job at NBC, I will be focusing on my photography again full time. I’m kinda letting fate take its course. I’m not worried… I am more curious to see where I’ll end up.

If I end up focusing on photography full time, I will really need to step up my marketing and advertising. I’m taking a marketing class for the next two Saturdays. This should really point me in the right direction (full or part time).

Looking down to my left at Dagan, sleeping next to me on the couch, I know I have to make a certain salary to take care of him and his health condition. I am confident that I will be able to care for him. It is scary though… not knowing where money will come from.

For now, I’m still in transition… I have been so for years it seems. I really hope that things are on the up and up. I am hopeful still. I am inspired.

Heading to bed after this episode of How It’s Made is over. I want to see them make tofu!

Happy Belated Birthday, mom!!!! I miss you!!!!!
