I can't help but giggle at my title. Technically, the wheels are turning because my bike has wheels that turn. What I'm speaking of, however, is my brain.
During my ride on Saturday (45 miles through Allen), a teammate told me that her last day of work was Friday because she's going back to school. She's going to get her masters in Exercise Science, and I'm jealous.
The funny thing about Misty (my teammate, not my sister-in-law) is that she went to school to as a nursing major but ended up getting her degree in PR. My first choice of major was Nutrition, but when I saw all of the required sceince courses, I changed to PR. Misty is now pursuing her passion which has left me wondering if I should do the same.
A year ago, I knew I was through with education but was unsure of my next move. My degree is in PR, so I contacted my-now-boss to see if she knew of any PR/comm jobs I would be good for. I also applied to the nutrition program at TWU and got accepted a couple of months later.
Because I did not want to take out student loans, I pursued the PR job instead. Don't get me wrong, I LUV my job! I LUV where I work! I LUV the people I work with. But, I'm missing the one thing I'm most passionate about-- the health industry.
So... what do I do? If I don't go back to school, will I regret it forever? Will it always be on the back of my mind? I love my job at Southwest Airlines way too much to leave, but I love the health industry, too.
If you have any suggestions, please send them my way. :)
