I don't know if this will be read by anyone, and to be honest I don't really know why I'm blogging!
All I know is that I want to start documenting this point of my life. I am currently 25 years old, and I am one class away from graduating. This should be a very exciting chapter in my life....but it is not.
No, I am not afraid of the school loan or the job hunting. I am working full-time at a decent job related to my major. My major is in public health and I am also minoring in psychology. I currently work at a dental office. I am very grateful for having this job and I know I am good at what I do. I go to work from 8 am to 7 pm. ..sometimes I get out early but 7pm is the latest I work . I work on some Saturday's and my salary is good. Nothing to complain.
Yet, I feel like something is missing! you know the things that makes you a better you everyday. Where is the passion, color, excitement, thrill? I wish I could say that maybe the problem is this dental office and that I should try another dental office. The truth is, this is the fifth dental office I worked in. I started working as Dental Assisting (DA) back in 2008. The same year I graduated high school. I then decided to go to college and aim to become a Dentist. Somewhere between hard classes and the lack of passion or interest in science I decided to change from a biology major to a public health major. I decided I would be comfortable becoming a registered dental hygienist (RDH).
I am not a RDH, in fact I planned to apply last year. I have all my pre-req's and all I have to do is fill out the application for the schools of my interest. Don't get me wrong, I know I am probably coming off as a lazy student or procrastinator. Let me tell you that I been a dean list student for the last 3 semesters. I have been offered the opportunity to pursue a master's degree in public health with financial help for my outstanding grades. I was also in a very respected honorary health education sorority, called Eta Sigma Gamma...anyways, my point is--I am no longer interested in this major anymore!
It took me a very long time to realize this, but this is the truth. I am a 25 year old brown eyed girl. Trying to be part of a career that will make me want to create things, where I can use color. I want to wake up and look forward going to work! Am I the only one feeling this way? I guess this is what the twenties is suppose to feel like. Today I start a new adventure and I am inviting you to join me.
Well, here is to my first blog... I don't really know where this will be taking us, but here it goes to a new beginning!
