Forums Welcome Committee new to the site!
@Totalanimefan: it's pretty cool in a lot of ways. i finished undergrad and this place only does undergrad, but i think we do technically get a discount on classes if we decide to take them as like, continued learning endeavors. i really like the field, it's just a bad time to be doing, well, anything, really.
@Totalanimefan: i graduated in 2019 with a general studies degree. i messed up my last semester due to some health issues, and at the time was fast-tracking into grad school (then dropped out lmao) so i figured some degree was better than no degree. i started as an education major, switched after my third semester, and spent most of my time studying creative writing though, and had minors in counseling psych and women's studies. if i could do it over again i probably would have just majored psych and maybe minored creative writing.

@spinda: Hello and welcome i'm pretty much the best thing on this site i find is the people. So many friendly people and so many willing to make new friends
There is blood on the path I walk
And each step I take is haunting me
Embraced by the darkness, I'm losing the light
Encircled by demons, I fight

@Totalanimefan: i've thought about it a few times tbh, but i think i have too many of my own issues to counsel professionally lmao.
i originally wanted to work with fraternities and sororities doing like diversity training and stuff, and i still think that'd be cool. i was in a (nontraditional) sorority and enjoyed my time and think that in general, they can be really cool platforms for good-- but there's a lot of bad apples in the system and a lot of alumni willing to protect them.
lately, though, with everything going on in the world, college jobs in general seem really unstable and even though i'm only 23 i'm really tired of moving states every few years. so idk. once my contract is done here i might try grad school again, or i might look for a job closer to home, doing something like content writing or editing, or maybe some kind of diversity training.
@Kittyzilla: thank you for the welcome!!

@Totalanimefan: Yeah. I'm only a few hours away -but- I don't have a license right now (late learner, was ready to take the test and then COVID caused all of our drive testing to be cancelled -- it's been hell and a half trying to get it set up in Ohio) and due to working on a college campus that's luckily seen very few cases, travel is heavily discouraged.
I didn't think I was -that close- to my family until I moved out of state for grad school last year. I was miserable for several reasons, but main among them being I just missed my damn family.

@Totalanimefan: yeah. we weren't super close when i was growing up but once i started moving around for different things (internship in KY, grad school in IL, now working in OH) my mom and i started texting every night, and coming back to live at home from december until the end of july was humbling but also good for our relationships.
thanks. i know how to drive and finished all my hours (though it's now been almost 3 months since i've been behind the wheel soooo) but couldn't test at home, and trying to get an OH permit has been hell. i think i might just keep my home permit and practice & test while i'm home and off work for winter break.

@Totalanimefan: it's gonna suck no matter what. I'm supposed to have it for this job because, in a non-COVID year, I would have some travel as part of being on call. But, COVID, we don't want to go to the hospital unless we have to, the hospital doesn't want us there, etc.
I'm doing my best to get it but it sucks to have work ask me every week or so for an update when I don't have one lol.
How was your day?
