job searching can be such a pain... especially when you haven't quite graduated, and the fields that you're interested in have nothing to do with what you actually have experience in...

what can i do tho? i need money...

what really upsets me is how my mom is "helping" me with this... i've told her already that i wanted to go to seminary... and she seemed okay with it. however, in my job searching, she's completely ignoring what i told her my dreams were... she thinks she knows best, and doesn't hear any validity in anything that's outside of her sphere of thought...

"so and so has an excellent job in the medical field... you're a bio major..."
*i hate bio*
"you could teach in schools... they have excellent benefits"
*i'm a terrible teacher, when it's not one-on-one*
"forget about temping... you need a permanent career"
*ummm... i'm planning to go to school soon...*
"a job that you can spend the rest of your life doing... maybe at a hospital or something..."
*i hate bio*

and it goes on and on... we have completely different goals in mind, and while she is actually trying to help me, she's not... her idea of helping is making everybody do what she wants... and she just can't get it through her head that she doesn't know it all...

i mean, i know i don't either... but i don't just completely ignore other folks' point of view or goals when i try to help them...

what to do? sigh...
