ok, so i started this college year last august as a teaching major, yah? but my dad and step dag have been naggin me for get in the medical field. so, i changed my major and this term, i began anatomy & physiology (and lab) and medical chemistry (And lab).
i've gotten 2 100s in my anatomy lecture quizes. but that was stuff i learned in jr. high. i have my first official kine test coming up tuesday, yah? and i honestly think i'm not gonna do well. i'm giving it to midterms before i withdraw though (if i don't do well)
here's the problem. my dads were stoked i went into medicine, yah? even today, my dad was telling me about how much money crna's make. the problem is, i honestly don't like what i'm doing. i'm not a science person. i'm thinking of going back into my teaching major, but i don't want them getting disappointed in me.
my step dad's main thing is money. personally, i don't define success in money. i dunno how i'm gonna break it to him. yes, i'll be going through more school going back in education than i would becoming a respiratory therapist. besides, they only take 30 students a year, and there's a waiting list.
but i don't wanna feel bad for disappointing him, plus i don't feel like hearing "you need to go back into medicine" "look how little teachers make!"
what he doesn't know is that teachers back on o'ahu make pretty decent money, and that there's maybe a 100-200 dollar a month difference between RTs, RNs, and teachers.
this is so fuckin annoying :frown1:
