Federal Taxes filed, job stress building...
I filed my federal taxes today via e-file online. Easy enough. I still have to file my state tax return. I didn't feel like doing the state today because I was busy searching around monster.com for jobs.
I found quite a few good jobs that suit me and my skills. Most of the jobs I am looking at are in North Carolina because I am hoping to move there soon. I am looking into a job in the computer industry, no particular field though. I haven't been able to narrow down the career I would like to pursue.
I need to work on making my mind up on things and stop going back on some of my original decisions. Most of the time my original decision is always the best idea... so lately I haven been going with that. For example, my current job stress was building on me so bad that I wanted to quit so bad. I have been depressed and hating myself. So, I decided to go with my first thought of how to relieve the stress. Quit.
Now, I am searching with everything in me, all day everyday working on my job skills and looking/applying for jobs in certain areas that I would like to live. I am sure I will find a good job if I keep my effort at this rate.
I have been watching the first season of "Lost" this week. I like it pretty well. I still have the second season lined up to watch next. I didn't play much Gears of War today, I was pretty busy job searching and looking at tax papers to make sure I got everything right.
I hope my decisions are going to brighten my near future. I am not usually a person that lives life spontaneously. This is a new thing for me, and I hope that the risks that I am taking now will lead me to a new career in something I love to do... and what I am good at.
Well, I had a lot to talk about because these are crucial moments in a young man's life. Changing careers and seeing new places... Ah. I can't wait. Peace.
