The Sun Will Come Out Tomorrow

You know that "master plan" that you have from the age of like five? Get through high school, go to college, and get a good job. Wow how we deceive ourselves! I'm starting to realize getting a "dream job" is pretty much impossible, at least at this point. I've seen it in several cases, people working their butts off at a dead end job just so that maybe the next job will be a step in the right direction. Then of course you stay there a while until you find another job and then another and another. Hopefully by the time you're 40, you are settling into your "dream job" that you thought you would land after college, or at least after a few years. It's a lot of work getting somewhere in life in the corporate world. Who knows where I will end up, I'm starting to think maybe I need to come to terms with the fact I might never be a buyer, which I guess is okay. I'm a smart girl and I can take on anything. I've taken on many things I thought I couldn't handle. For example, going to high school from middle school, learning to drive, going to college, graduating college, college athletics, not to mention having a boyfriend serving in a war zone over seas. I'm a pretty independent young woman with a good head on my shoulders, or so I like to tell myself, I can do anything. So Thursday I'm going for an interview in a industry that I think could be quite profitable for me, banking. I just might like it! What better industry to be in since I live in one of the largest banking capitals in the country? So who knows, starting as a teller (that starts out making a whole lot more than I do now plus benefits) might lead me to being some big wig downtown with Bank of America or Weels Fargo. The possibilities are limitless, if I just work for it. :)
