When a door closes, a window opens. The only problem is I have a few windows open, and the door never really closed. Granted, there are screens in the windows that I need to punch out. Difficult life-changing decisions. Ugh...
I talked to my boss today. And he truly is a nice guy. Sure, we had a rough start in the beginning. But what can you expect from a crazy, headstrong college student? I'm just glad he puts up with me and is willing to help me with the research. But anyways, come to find out, I will have funding for my Master's Degree if I so choose to continue with my Master's Degree. So, that option is still open to me.
I feel a little bit better about it all now. I thought I didn't have funding and that I was just a poor excuse of a bio-engineer. Well, I'm happy to say that my department doesn't think that way about me. And I guess I shouldn't think that way about myself either.
Anyways, now I don't know what to do. The idea of not being dirt-broke is so appealing. And I know I could go back and get my Master's Degree whenever I want and have the company pay for it. I don't know what to do. The idea of finally owning a house is very appealing to me.
I guess I could hope to get the best of both worlds. One of the jobs I'm applying for is in Logan. If I got that job, I could still continue with my Master's Degree at Utah State. Granted, I'd be super-super busy and slower at getting my degree. But I wouldn't be poor. I'd be able to go to fancy restaurants with my husband, and we'd be able to have mini-vacations.
Cross your fingers for me. Or pray. Or think happy thoughts for me. I know I'll be praying, crossing my fingers, and definitely thinking happy thoughts as I go through these interviews. I know I'm an amazing person and worker. The only problem is I also know my shortfalls and tend to think a little too heavily on those.
