I've been all over the map with the path I will choose for my future career wise.
I have my cosmetology license (which I am SO happy I have!), circumstances just didn't turn out perfect for me to work the salon. Some people have made the assumption it's because I'm lazy, indecisive, or just never really wanted to do it in the first place and I'm gonna have to say none of those are correct. I couldn't handle the hours, and having a newborn at home. Not because I was tired or anything just because I was distracted. No one wants a distracted hair dresser (that could be bad 0-0) I wanted to be at home with my baby, bonding, and teaching her. I still love doing hair and make up :) But Salon hours are not for me right now.
I enjoy working at the pre-school and right now it's a great set up as far as hours and child care while Kyle is finishing his degree, but I know it's not something I will continue with as far as a permanent career. I've considered going back to school and getting my associates to become a teaching aid. I just wonder if I'm considering it because it's simple or because I really have the desire to continue being involved in education.
My last option that I think about a lot is becoming a certified wedding planner, I am currently planning a friends wedding and it is something I very much enjoy. I love planning events! Working with women to make a special memory is even more inspiring. I also feel like I'm close my cosmetology niche, making people feel beautiful and confident. So I get more excited thinking about getting the certification done.
I can't commit to school/certification until Kyle graduates (May 2013 YAY!) so I have some time to decide. Luckily I can still plan events and build a solid portfolio in the mean time :) I just want to see my future clearly, hmm doesn't everyone though?
