NTSO

Cool! Monday I found out there is an organization at school called the Non-Traditional Student Organization. I as so happy - I was looking for something like this. It is for students like me, who may be a little older than the average or students who are married and/or have kids.

 

This organization hosted a party at school Monday so I went to get the scoop. It was fun - they had free food and a live jazz music (I love jazz and the musician, a flute and sax player, was very good). I met up with a classmate and she was talking to another older (like me, hehe) student. Well this lady looked familiar so I asked her what her name was. It turned out she is the ex-wife of an old boss of mine - she and I actually had a class together at school (Mott) a long time ago (and she used to come into the restaurant where I worked a few years ago). She remembered me too. Haha, its a small world. All three of us ended up joining the NTSO.

 

I talked with this other lady for a bit to catch up - she was going to school for teaching but she is seriously thinking about being a physical therapy assistant. She told me her son just graduated with his Assciates Degree as a Physical Therapy Assistant and got a great job in no time. Then his resume was circulating and he actually got another great job offer - for a lot more money then his first job offer. This is making me rethink my plan - I still want to go into Psych but I need something else while I am getting my degrees. I really want to have a good job while I am getting my Masters so I am trying to think what I can do besides restaurant work. This might be an option I should look into because the medical field is booming right now.
