Taking The Plunge

I have done it. There is no going back now. Hopefully, hopefully, hopefully third time is the charm.
If that made no sense at all, which it probably didn’t, I have signed up for an online course. It is not the Engineer ticket course that I’m pretty sure I have mentioned before. Instead I am taking an accounting course online.
I decided on accounting because I am good at math and it would still keep me in the customer service industry. I love helping people out, it just isn’t financially sound at my current job. I have no room to advance where I currently work. With the accounting course, there are so many different opportunities for me. I could be payroll clerk, bank teller, accounts receivable, book keeper. The list just goes on and on. And while looking for some jobs for Justin yesterday, I found a lot of places looking for accountants. It is a job that is in high demand right now. Plus, since I can go at my own pace at the course, I could have a new job in 6 months. That’s if I go quickly through the course. I don’t know what the course set up is like yet, as I haven’t done my first introduction exams yet. I decided to make a post about it first. Got to love my priorities. Plus, I didn’t want to get too into it right now, as I only have an hour before I have to go take Justin his lunch and then go to work myself.
Yay me though for taking control of my schooling. And sucking it up, and going forward with plans instead of just putting them off, like some many other things in life.
Oh and it is third times the charm because this will be my third time going back to school since graduating high school. I have taken a Massage Therapist course (which I horribly failed at) and I have my diploma in Graphic Design (which is incredibly hard to get into). Although with the Graphic Design I can segue that over to wedding planning (another venture I want to have) and design brides stationery items. I already have a potential client in my sister-in-laws brothers fiancé.
*raises imaginary glass*
Here’s to a new experience and hopefully new future in a better career field!
