What’s happening these days
Izzy here, unloading quite a bit of things.
1) My University rehired me for a special program in August. I’ll be teaching 13 Japanese students English through content about American culture and such. It’ll be over mid-August, but I got a sweet office out of it.
2) I got a job offer from Texas for a full time esl job. I have such mixed feelings.
3) Another university in ATL wants to hire me (part time of course bc that is my life apparently)
4) My University again is talking about offering me a part-time job for the fall.
- Do I choose stability (REALLY good money, insurance & benefits, steady work) over other types of fulfillment? Even if that means leaving a place I love in favor of a place I am both apprehensive and resistant towards?
- Do I choose a part-time position because I love the environment and think I’ll be more creatively and intellectually stimulated, yet will suffer repercussions of living paycheck to paycheck and dreading the depths of debt? Not to mention, I can stay in this diverse city where I have access to internationals and various cultures.
- How do I choose which one will protect my already compromised mental fortitude the best?
How do people adult? How are people ok with making such impossible decisions all the time? How are people ok with leaving paths untraveled, never wondering if that was the better option?
I’m so full of anxiety right now.
