Growing up.

How do I move forward when I don't know what direction I am facing?
Is this where I am supposed to be?
I normally really don't care,
I kind of just go with the flow,
life will point me in the right direction.
But I've kind of put a timer on myself as of today.
I need to know what I want to go to school for by April 10th.
Path #1
Go to Metro State for a bachelors in social work. Then move onto getting specific training/schooling for working with children and young adults that have autism. Ideally my
role would be focused relating to the indivduals through art in it's many different forms.
Path#2
Go to school to become a veterinarian. Schools in the area that offer vet programs are: UofM, MN School of Business, and Argosy U. Ideally I would like to become a certified veterinarian and be able to open my own animal clinic. I am sure that would mean I would also have to take a minor in business management so I could get a bank to loan me enough money to open a private clinic. I loved managing a store, I just hated the corporate side of it.

I love helping.
I think that if I were to continue to help people, I would get burnt out on it.
Path #1 seems like it would be really awesome. . .but I worry about getting worn out.
Path #2 seems like it would be really awesome. . .but I worry about my credit history
and whether or not I would ever be able to take out a business loan to open a clinic.
I don't know.
I am going to seek out some vet clinics in the area and see if they need a volunteer
for a couple days. That way I would be able to see what goes on 'behind the scenes'.

So.
Yup.
Time to do some thinking.
April 10th I am scheduled for my placement testing at Metro State.
So if I want to get a BA in social work. . .I'll keep that ball rolling.
Otherwise I'm applying for the other 3 schools to see if I can get accepted
into the veterinary technology program for an AAS.
Meh.
I don't like thinking about long-term stuff.
