i absolutely adore houses, and thought that is why i would take the real estate class, it wasn't to "make money" like most, it was simply because i cannot get enough of houses. I have drug my boyfriend around to all the new houses going up to look at the "model homes" and there aren't any left! I try to get him to go to open houses with me all the time and he always refuses, and I always have trouble understanding who wouldn't want to look at different homes!! haha. but like i said that dream ended when I had to get all the technical learning... so boring.
I'm now in my late 20s and I'm just feeling like my life is in such a downward turn now that I know transcription won't last forever. I now have a mortgage to pay (because i was making enough a couple years ago) and now I'm barely scraping by. I'm going to look for other work but it's scary for me. I know I am young (but i dont always feel it) but your stories of different jobs inspired me. I feel sometimes I should go back to school but I'm afraid the commitment isn't there on my part...
I know I have it better than a lot of others so I am thankful for that... but it doesn't mean Im not sometimes feeling lost!
I remember when I learned transcription 10 years ago, my mom taught me as she has done it for like 30 years now... it was hilarious :) but now 10 years later I feel strong and good at it and it's hard to wonder if I'll every find something else that I feel that way about :)
