The wisest of men and of women are aware of just how unwise they really are and that is something I forgot. Lesson learned.
Last night I saw the interpreter. I liked it a lot. It's nice when movies make you want to do something with your life. I love being inspired. I remember when I saw the movie White Orleander and it had me confirming my career choice. When a movie can impact you so strongly, it's got to be good... at least to you . So it's always been a dream of mine to work for the United Nations. I'm all about peace so I think it is time to seriously look into it. It's always been something I wanted to do but I've never actively checked up on it and I think I will start. I know social workers are definitely employed by the united nations. I know a lot of people would say that the united nations is useless but just the fact that the idea exists of a body created to bring people (hence the "united nations") together and achieve peace is a start, regardless of how much power it has or does not have. I would get to travel all over also, on top of feeling that I was doing something worthwhile with my life. So we'll see about this. You probably need some experience before getting in there so I guess I'll be a social worker here for a while and then apply later on...
I was looking back on something last night. I'm surprised at what my friend Kelly said to me when we were like in elementary school. She told me that my job in life was to be Melinda the peacekeeper. Back then I said something like what the hell are you talking about, I wanna be a doctor or a lawyer, but now looking back it's kinda creepy of how she was right on the money. Well potentially anyways. I remember kind of being insulted by that back in the day, I'm not sure why. I was like "peace keeper, that's all you think I am capable of doing with my life"? Kids are dumb, heh.
So ya, I have my last final on wednesday and I only have one shift of work this week. I was about to have the week off but then I was scheduled for thursday 4 30 to 9 30 which isn't bad at all. So yay, after wednesday, it is relaxation time... and a little bit in between until wednesday cuz now I have sat, sun, mon and tuesday to study. This is the exam that I have to kill though so I'm going to try to study as much as I can. I have to read a whole book by then so i'm sure that will take up enough of my time. So ya, i'm off to eat breakfast and start to study.
