As you can imagine, having no phone and no computer has given me a lot of extra time to think. One of the self revelations I've had since my last post is that I need a second job... like yesterday. While I deeply appreciate living for free at my parents house, I'm anxious to move out and get the ball rolling on my own life. However, reality set in and I found myself with no car, no insurance, a pathetic bank account, and a job that gives me maybe 10 hours a week. This just isn't conducive to living on my own. So I have been filling out countless applications, had a couple interviews aaand nothing. Not a single offer. I cannot decide if I am doing something wrong or these would be employers don't like the idea of me keeping two jobs while going to school. I mean...it can't possibly be that difficult. Other people make it work. Of course, ideally my dream job would simply fall into my lap and be in the field I am currently studying... but I fear I am walking the fine line of making my career in retail while staying in the home of my aging parents.
Why does being financially responsible have to be so dang complicated? I mean, all I REALLY want in life is to marry a wealthy man who will let me spend my days in the kitchen cooking fabulous food for orphans and widows. Is that too much to ask?
