We are, we are

The future.  Nothing seems more scary.

I graduate in December.  10 months.  Whaaaat?

How am I suppose to know what to do?  I have a minimum wage, part time job.  A lot of customer service experience, but hardly any in my field.  Volunteering is something I would be honored to do, but who has time?  I could work less, but I need money to put in my gas tank.  Intrinsic satisfaction and work for the greater good isn't going to drive me around the city.

I've been meeting with a mentor who is a graduate student in Family Social Science.  She has been amazing.  We have reworked my resume so it is unrecognizable.  I am also in an internship course where I have to make an efolio showcasing myself.  Both of these things should really help me land a great job.  I also have my mentor and TA as great resources to use as I embark on this part of my life.  

The problem is, I just don't know where to go next.

They ask me what I want to do with my life, where I want to be, what I want to do...and I know, but I'm not fully convinced.  I don't know if I can or if that will make me happy.   The hard part is that nobody but me can make these decisions.

Grad school?  Maybe.  I had honestly never really considered it.  I think, maybe, subconsciously I didn't think I was smart enough.  However, it just might be in my future.  I've looked at a couple programs that really seem like something I would enjoy.

Well, I'm still scared for what happens in 10 months, 2013- will be a new year for sure.
