Just kidding!
(about the 15 minutes, not about the career search)

I would be fulfilled if I could write about my never-ending quest for higher-education and hobbies and get paid for it for the rest of my life. (I wouldn’t even ask for a raise as long as I could pay my bills–honestly!) However, I understand that blogging is not a career that yields instant success.

I’m having trouble deciding what I want to do with my life…or re-deciding what I want to do with my life. I have toyed with the following career choices:

speech-language pathologist
linguist
event-planner (more on this later)
magazine editor
florist
blogger
famous writer

As the list grows longer, the career choices become more and more unrealistic. I mean seriously, who wakes up one morning and decides they are going to be a famous writer? Oh wait…this lady did.

But I digress…

To balance my fun and games apartment gardener chronicles, I still start the career search chronicles– an in-depth look at reasonable career choices for indecisive girls with too many hobbies.

I am hoping to ask my father to do a little guest-blogging for these career search chronicles (though he does not yet know this). You see, my father seems to know a lot about everything and he is awesome at everything he does. I think that indecisive girls with too many hobbies around the world might learn a thing or two from Dad.

Stay tuned!

    Maybe you could be the world’s first cupcake critic.

    I, on the other hand, would much rather be a pizza critic.
