We visited Ed's family last night which further confirmed that I do not want to be a teacher. I don't ever want to have to grade papers or make up activities/exams while I'm at home or visiting people. Today my students were very disruptive and loud. I'm tired of having to discipline other people's kids. I want a job where I get respect and I'm appreciated for the work that I do. Those things do not happen when I work as a teacher. I dread coming to work every Monday.
I would really like to be a doctor. I also want to invest in properties. I want to buy properties and rent them out. The first one would be logically to pay off our house, rent it out, and then we'd move to a better neighborhood/school district.
This summer I'm going to temp to earn extra money. I'm also going to volunteer at a hospital and apply for some post-bach medical programs.
The plan is to get into medical school and then join the army so that they will pay back all my medical loans.
I just know that I can't teach for much longer. It's a miserable job and there aren't many positions anyway. It's not a secure job like it used to be (which was one of its only advantages).
