7/30 Things: Dream Job(s)

7/30 Things: Dream Job(s)



(To get caught up on 30 Things and know what it is all about start here.)


What is your dream job and why?


Professional Student!  If I could find someone that would pay me, and pay for me to go back to school for all the random things that I find interesting and would like to learn more about I totally would.  I love to learn and have so many different interests that I think I could make a decent living out of it.  I think that is part of the reason why I have had such a hard time deciding what to get my masters in, I want to do it in so many things that I can't narrow it down to just 1!

Travel Blogger.  I LOVE LOVE LOVE to travel and see the world.  I also love to take pictures (although I am an amateur at best when it comes to photography) so if I could get paid to travel and tell people about it, I would sell everything I currently own and hit the road immediately.  Nothing would stand in my way of that. Even if I had to blunder my way though (tips to teach "what not to do" I guess) I would find joy in all of it. 
I do think that a part of my love for travel is my love of learning as well.  Learning about other cultures, seeing how people interact with each other, how others live and of course the History (especially in Europe) I am a people watcher as well.  I love to just sit and observe how others interact with one another in different situations.

Foster & Respite Care. I would also love to be a stay at home foster mom, and do weekend respite care for kids with disabilities.   This one is just a desire to help make the lives better for kids who have known so much loss and pain. 
I have so much respect for parents who keep their special needs children at home rather than dump them on the state institutions and let them become someone else's "problem." These children are not problems, but are a lot to handle at times.  The respite care would be a time for both the kids and the parents to get a break. 

Aside from those far outlandish dreams (well being a foster mom will happen someday), a true career is something I still can't pinpoint. As I said above I have so many different things that I am interested in that I am having a really hard time tapering it down.  I do know that I want to work with people, I miss working with the kids and I have been trying hard (to no avail) to get back into the field down here in Texas but not being bilingual is hurting me.  I have come to the conclusion through the variety of jobs that I have had over the years that I am good at paperwork and keeping things organized. I feel as if I would be good as a case manager.
