School

So after spending the last 8 months of my life living carefree in New York, I've decided that once Alex and I move, I'm going to SCHOOL.
I graduated in 2010... so I've had more than enough time off. & since I'm blessed to have Alex, all of my schooling is FREE. There are people that would kill to be in my position, so I can't just take it for granted.
My biggest problem is finding something that I actually WANT to do. I mean, I am the most indesicive person in the world. I change my mind about even the smallest things (like what color towels I want in the bathroom).

Picking out what I want to study has narrowed down quite a bit since I'm a milspouse. I have to find a career that works with all my traveling. But I want it to be something I can do even after Alex leaves the Navy. I also want to make sure that it's somewhat enjoyable and fairly easy going (because of my Lupus). I cant do a job that consists of a lot of running around, long hours, and super stressful. And of course- I want it to be job that I can feel a little pride in doing.

*I'm really not a school person, so it doesn't have to be something glorified... I just don't want to end up in a restaurant or working retail. But, the shorter the schooling, the better lol

For the longest time, I figured that I would just go to beauty school. Perfect right? Fun, simple, easy going.... WRONG. It randomly hit me one day that I really DON'T want to deal with people. I feel like it would be stressful... and I'm not completely comfortable altering someone that I'm not close to. So that idea is basically in the trash.
Then, after all of my dentist work, I figured that maybe I'd be a dental assistant. And technically you don't even have to go to school for that. But in the end I just don't really feel like it's ME. I'd probably puke watching someone getting their teeth out ripped out of their head.

After I took a break from the long debate on what I want to do with my life... it all came together.
Alex and I went over to Amanda's today and she was telling me about her classes that she's about to start. And after thinking about it... I think I want to do the SAME thing. I mean, I don't want to be stealing her dreams lol but I REALLY think this is it...
A pharmacy technician!!
It's perfect in so many ways.
-I dont have to take the SAT's (which I've always been terrified of).
-I can do the schooling online.
-It's a fairly easygoing job.
-I wouldn't mind making a career out of it.
-I can travel and ALWAYS have somewhere to work... from stores to hospitals to even just working on base.
See, PERFECT.

So I think this it. I'd like to hear some opinions on it... so comment below or text/call me or even FB me.
