Hello blog world. I've had a busy morning! Well not super busy, just doing a lot of research. I've applied for several jobs, let's not even mention how many I've applied for total. I'm thinking the number would make me sick considering I'm still at that other place. Oh well, I've also been looking into graduate school. I know, yikes! Didn't think I would say that this soon after graduating. Not that I'm going to go back any time soon, but apparently my little undergraduate degree isn't doing much for me. So why not get another? Now if I could just get someone else to pay for it... It's not cheap!
I know I've said it a million times, I don't want an MBA. They practically hand them out like candy now-a-days. However, ECU offers an online program and I think some of the classes could be waived because of my undergraduate work and how well I did in them! Can't beat that. Oh wait you can! They offer concentration certificates too! So not only are you getting an MBA but you could get a concentration in oh I don't know, Health Management? At a pretty penny of course. Not only MBA, but they offer psychology too. Not the field I would want, but they do offer it. It's an academic psychology. Meaning you teach it. Not so sure about the teacher thing.
In other areas, I've looked at UNCC's program. None of those are online. (Which makes it harder to work and deal going to school. Undergrad is one thing, grad school is completely different!) In fact there is no way you can work and do their clinical psychology program. It's intense! Which makes me leery. One- I need to work and two- not sure if I can handle all that. Psychology has a special place in my heart, but neither option seems very good to me at the moment. (Not to mention expensive!) Then there's UNCC business school, which is fantastic! (I should know.) But again, you have to go sit in class. Online programs seem to be a lot more flexible with a working schedule. So that marks off UNCC. So sad, I love them so.
All of this is thinking into the future of course. I'm not going to enroll any time soon, in fact I have to take a GMAT before I can even think about it, but it's worth looking into right? One never knows where they are headed sometimes. I might not go back at all, but looking into something promising is just what I needed to do today. Especially with the job search seemingly going no where. I'm applying away like a little mad woman, but so are a thousand others. One has to come eventually. (The sooner the better!) Until then I'm stuck in my little prison of retail. It's just not my cup of tea any more. I used to like it, but I'm over it. Over the retail hours, the lack of hours, and rude customers. (Lori and I seem to attract them all.) Definitely looking for something "grown up" and stable. (With decent pay and benefits? Hopefully!)
Off I go to look some more. Have a great day!
