Because writers can't get jobs in a market like this...

I'm taking the MTELs on November 22. *sigh*

I'm not pleased about it nor was this is in my initial plans for the rest of my life. ACTUALLY it was in my fathers plans. Not Mine. I've settled into the thought pattern that teaching isn't a bad idea simply one that is another possibility. It can be a noble profession and it'll give me summers off at least.

In any case... I haven't gotten much writing done in the past few weeks. Walmart seems to drain any ambition i have to write straight out of me. I'm exhausted more times than not and when I'm not exhausted I'm usually pretty sick. Like right now. I've got a cold that sprung up out of nowhere.That and the odd hours where you work close one night and open the next morning just keep you in a constant zombie-fied state of mind. I've had it about up to here *points over her head*. there really isn't much else i can say about that to be honest. it's just frustrating for someone that's trying to find a career path that she actually likes. but due to headlines like this...


New York, Oct 10 (PTI) The US benchmark index Dow Jones Industrial Average has plunged to its lowest level in five years, amid negative market sentiments in the world economy and some analysts predicting that recovery could take a long time.
In the last ninety minutes of trading, the Dow index dropped to 8,579.19, the lowest level in five years, down as much as 679 points.


It's not wonder why I'm not the only one that can't seem to find a job. The Dow Jones index just keeps dropping and it's freaking out most of the industrial market.

Also I vow to never tell my children that a bachelors degree is all you need. If you have no experience you have nothing. I'm sure i'll run into this when i apply for teaching jobs too. >_<
