The Other Things

Since I started this blog, all I've been talking about has been weight.  But there are so many other things I need to do to Take back Kay. Ok, for example, I am educated but in this economy I need more. So in order to be a little more well rounded, I'd like to dipp into some of the other things that I need to do in order to make my life truly mine. 

 I could talk about dating--but let's face it, I have no idea how to do that because apparently I've been doing it wrong all these years. It would make me a gi-nourmous hypocrite. So until I figure out how to tackle the dating things--I'll stick with what I know. I'm going back to school. I figured I could sit at my dead end job and complain, driving my blood pressure through the roof, or I could get off my ass and hammer it out through another two years learning a trade and getting out there.

So in order to make my way to a well rounded me, I'm back in school.  Do not make this decision lightly. Look into everything. If you were like me and spent a year working a crappy job and job hunting with no success then maybe you should go back. But take everything into consideration. Make sure you plan this out as well--what schools have your program? What program do you want to go into? Do you have the requirements? Where would you get the money for tuition and books? How will you get to school? What about clothes and shoes and school supplies?  Research the field you want to get into.

Make a budget, research the schools that you wish to go to. Go and visit them if you have to. Check out the graduation dates, due dates. Go to orientation once you get in. Get a little notebook and write down everything. I know, it may sound like a lot. But create a 'to do' list of all the things you need to do. If you are in Ontario, and you're just going to college you must apply through OCAS. This gives you a way to do everything online and this way you probably won't have to worry about keeping everything straight because it gives you step by step instructions. You don't need a credit card but can pay through your bank.

There's another step!

Hugs,
Kay
