holy fuck

okay- so i've been in a little bit of a funk lately. it all has to do with the fact that my job=no money. i'm tired of constantly going negative in my bank account. it's not because i'm going out to eat and drinking... it's because i'm trying to pay my bills and the money just doesn't seem to be there. the last time i went out i drank exactly one PBR tall boy(the cheapest beer around) all night. that's how much i don't have money. the no money isn't the only reason for being in a funk. you see, i'm a part of this group called The Integrity Group at Keller Williams and it is sucking hard core. i'm really starting to realize that there are more disadvantages than advantages to being a part of this group. there seem to be personality issues creaping up through the lovely surface. amongst other things that i'm just tired of thinking about. i'm over it.
the positive thing about all of this is that i have decided to change my career. i'm going to get a master of arts degree and i'm going to teach little kids. i'm very excited about this. i think it will be fulfilling for me and i love that i will have all holidays and 3 months off in the summer, paid, with benefits. i'm going to continue to do the real estate thing until i don't feel like doing it anymore. it will take me 15 months from this fall to get my degree and start working. i'm going to start studying for the GRE test i have to take. that will be the first, and in my opinion the hardest, hurdle to jump. i am so so so so so terrible at math and of course there is a math section. those damn teachers weren't lying when they said you would always be using math. that has bit me in the ass so many times. just when i think i will never have to take another damn math test... i do.
anyhow, i kind of can't believe i'm actually doing this. getting a masters degree. i'm nervous, excited, optomistic...

i'm going to go take a shower and finish my book. i'm reading the kite runner and all i can say is holy fuck.
holy fuck about the book, the integrity group, and becoming a teacher.
