Instead of working on my response paper for english that's due tonight, I'm stuck trying to decide what I should do. Lately I've been thinking a lot about our education, and I'm coming back to how I use to feel before. I first wanted to explore other options (as in my major) other than nursing, because I didn't want to be in school for THAT long. Now I'm back in school for a Nursing Degree, and I'm starting to reconsider that major because of the feeling of how LONG it's going to take. Maybe, it's also because I've never actually had experience in the field, and so I question if it's really something that'll I'll like/want to do for the rest of my life (though that's what I've always felt like since High School).
My interest in Nursing was sparked in our Health Occupations class with Mrs. Nielsen in High School. I was part of the red cross club (as the secretary) and we went to different events, sometimes on weekends, and I enjoyed it. She taught us how to do CPR, etc. and that's when I knew I wanted to do something in the medical field. Now that it's been what 10 years, I still get that same desire, but then that desire gets overshadowed by my other desire of NOT wanting to be in school for that long.
I've also been thinking of being a CNA, then hopefully I can find a job as a CNA, and then get some experience in the field that way. At least if I do that now, I still have time to change my mind if I decide to, and if I don't, then even better, I'll have experience under my belt.
So decisions, decisions. I wish I wasn't so indecisive about what I want to do. :/
