Mission to the Unknown

So I have recently come to the conclusion that I have no idea what I want to do with my life. All that I know right now is that I do not wish to continue my meteorological career any further. Frankly, the whole topic of meteorology has come to bore me in more ways than I can express. I do not mean that I have lost interest in the weather, and I don't believe that I ever will, I have just simply lost all concern for the study of it.
I have thought of becoming a psychologist, which sounds fantastic to me, but still requires a great deal off schooling. I've grown sick of school, tired of the endless battle for grades. Tired of always trying to do my best only to see that it is not good enough.
I wish I could just get a job already, finally reap some of the rewards of my hard work, but what kind of job can I get without a college degree, the world seems bent upon screwing us over in so many ways. College just keeps taking and taking money and showing little in return for it, sometimes it makes you feel like just another number. It was nice being home, and getting to see everyone again, even if I did not get a chance to hang out with most people, it was nice to see them in passing, like the good ole days.
Frankly, I wasn't excited at all to come back to PSU, if anything I was disappointed. I just want to start a career already and skip this useless bit.

  1. Sometimes I feel the same way. It's very tempting because of different jobs that I currently hold and the training, i have a job offer for a full time permanent job. But I don't want to be the one who didn't make it and have everyone realize how much better they are than me. I want to fight, but I'm just getting tired of trying.

  2. If you enjoy the job that you have been offered, go for it. Success is in the eye of the beholder, and if you enjoy your job that's all that matters. I know how you feel though, I'd be lying if I said I haven't considered just quitting college and getting a job.
