Catch-up

Last time I blogged was almost 3 months ago. Time has been moving so fast now with me working 2 jobs and trying desperately to get my shit together. I once came across a triad of life, which allowed people to choose between 2 of the 3 benefits. You either have rest and social life, but no work; or work and rest but no social life, or the last one - what I'm currently going through - work and social life but no rest.

I can kinda feel my health deteriorating due to my hectic schedule. Work takes up so much time but I really love what I'm doing. Working with special needs children has always been my interest, and paired with teaching which is what I loved since I started tutoring. The prospect of working at my current workplace full time is very tempting, It has almost everything I look for in a career - great colleagues, working with children, teaching, and special needs. Every class I take leaves a sense of fulfillment in me and I enjoy the students, no matter how tiring or trying it can be working with special needs kids. But I have a greater goal I want to meet. I want to further my studies and become both a clinical psychologist to help more people and an academia. Rethinking my whole career prospect now.
