Yeah, April I know how hard that career decision can be. I would recommend just taking your time in the decision making process. I, for example, have my Master's in Human Resources Management and I have not yet worked in the field and probably will never! But, it helps to have that piece of paper. But if you can, go after something you really have a passion for! That's what life is all about I think.
Jacq, sounds like you've definitely been keeping busy. Trust me I know how the work thing can be. When I started the job I held before I got the new one here, I was working crazy hours and my days off were always different. It was just too much to keep up with. Sounds like you've been having fun though so that's a good thing. I know you stay busy these days but we'd love to have you around here all the time again for sure.

Aw, I was hoping this place would still be kicking like it was.
Lots of things have changed for me... Two months ago, I moved 1600 miles away from the only place I could ever call home... to northern California! That decision I had to make about a year and 2 months ago... I decided not to let one bad teacher bring me down.. and I'm so glad I didn't quit art. I'm now wanting to go into visual effects in film. So, I moved out here to pursue that at a college that I found. There's no better place for me to be than Cali.
I also broke up with the guy I was dating for 2½ years. It happened around 11 months ago. It wasn't really a smooth breakup, but I didn't expect it to be. It never is with me for some reason. *sigh* But at least he has learned to be civil with me now and we can actually communicate as friends, somewhat.
I'm also in another relationship now, with an old friend.. it's the kind of situation where I didn't know what was in front of my eyes throughout the past 5 years, yet I knew there was something between us and was scared to admit it... but that's another story.
