5:00 go home worn out and stressed
My day never stops and is nice sometimes because I moves so quickly... But I try my absolute hardest to get as much done as I can in one day. But it never seems to be enough, Even though I have received 4 Employee of the months and 2 most valuable player awards, I still get criticized by my supervisors saying that I need to get more done. I stress out every day trying to get everything done and I beat myself up when I come home thinking I need to do more tomorrow. So I did get employee of the month again this month which made me very happy, But then I heard a lot of other people saying "No matter what I do, I will never get employee of the month, I guess I am just not good enough" and then they say " I just wonder how OTHER people get it." There are only 3 different people who have gotten it all year so far, so thats limited people they could be talking about. I know that it is probably not me that they are talking about, but it hurts my feelings because I do bust my butt everyday there. I feel that I deserve every bit of that award. I cant help but feel awful that no one else has had the opportunity to accept this award. Some people have been there almost 2 or 3 years and still have not gotten it. I am really beginning to really hate my job :(. Anyway, As My other blog has said, Pedro is in Texas. I thought that it would be good for me to move on, but I have been getting more and more depressed everyday. I used to go spend time with him everyday or everyother day and now I just go home and watch TV, Get on the Internet, and eat.. I get about 15 minutes of happiness when Pedro calls me, then when we get off the phone I miss him. It used to be a lot of fun going to his house and watching them eat something different everyday, watching the interesting mexican movies, listening to their music, and just conversating with him and his family. Right now there is Hurricane Ike going straight for texas. He is living in Houston which is about 30 miles from the coast... This makes me very very very nervous. I called him yesterday and he didnt even know anything about it. I told him and he said he couldnt leave because he didnt have any money.. I am so scared. I told him that I was okay with him going to texas, but not dying. According to a report I looked at on the internet, they are offering free bus services to some areas, but it didnt specify where. I told him that if he hears about one then he needs to get on it. He promised he would. I dont know what I would do if he died.. He currently does not have anymore minutes on his phone which scares me even more because I dont know when I will be able to talk to him again. He moved down there to get more work and he is only working 8am to 1:30 pm. and he is building pools. He said that he hates it there and wishes he was back up here. I have also been very stressed out about school... I was very excited about going to cosmetology school, but then I couldnt get a loan and that didnt work out. I think that it would be fun and I would love to learn how to do all of that stuff, but I didnt know if that was what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. I have thought a lot about Nursing and Teaching. I absolutely love kids and would enjoy teaching, but at the same time im scared I would get too frustrated. A lot of people say I should be a nurse, because of how much I care about people. I was thinking about being a prenatal nurse or a pediatrics nurse. I really am so confused about what I want to do for the REST OF MY LIFE... thats a hard decision. I may like something now, but how am I supposed to decide on something to like forever. Any suggestions??? Right now I am very discouraged, because even if I did decide to go to school, I would not be able to afford it and to live. I tried the working full time and going to school and I lost my scholarships. I am terrified to do the same thing over again. My doctor says that the reason I am having so many stomach problems is an increase in stress. His exact question was "Do you notice it gets worse when you are stressed?" The real question is "When am I not stressed?" I wish I could just relax and get my life on track. AHHH
Your all's advise/input would be great!

You know you don't have to decide what you want to do with the whole rest of your life right now. You just have to decide what you want to do for say, the next 5 years. Its rare that people stay with one career. Just enjoy the journey, don't worry so much. You can find financing to pay for college. It is out there.
First off, don't stress. I know it's easy to say and hard to do but stressing doesn't do any good. Just do the best you can at work and when you can't keep up, KINDLY point out that there are other people on their cell phones who could help more or that you are now down to 7 people from 16. I mean, seriously, they can't expect you to get everything done.
And mom is right, you don't have to decide what you want to do for the rest of your life. Just for the next 5 years. I am about to graduate in December and I am already thinking that I don't want to be in Business. Very rarely do you have to work in what your degree is in. You just really need the degree. There is financing, even if it is loans.
Just decide what you enjoy doing right now, and do that. 5 or 10 years down the road, it might change. And then you change with it. You have to do whatever it is that makes you happy.
