Last time I talked about how imperative it had been for me to stabilize myself at work and the steps I took so as to accomplish it. This time however, I will be talking about the possibility of getting back to college. Not to mention that I will tackle the pros and cons one by one.
Right after I dropped out of college, I pulled myself up by my bootstraps by joining an Anglican church and getting a stable job as an English teacher. Be that as it may, I still had that bitter feeling of having somehow failed to make good of the promise I had once made myself to finish up my degree. First of all, I would say that earning a degree in education would mean making more money for sure due to having a higher status. Needless to say that I would belong to a more prestigious organization than the one I already do with way more benefits and opportunities.
On the plus side, I do not really need to have a degree to perform the job I do. With a few international exams and a couple of methodology certifications under my belt, I have more than enough skills to work proficiently without any inconvenience. If I wanted to have a higher income, all I need to do is to pass a few more international exams. That way I would not need to spread myself to thin by juggling different activities. Hence, there should not be the need to vacillate on the matter.
In review, am I having a hard time deciding whether I should get back to college or not. All I know is that I am not getting any younger and that I have rebuffed more than a few suggestions that I should go back. Not that I want to shirk from my responsibilities, nor am I closing my eyes to the problem. Still and all, it seems hard to make up my mind regarding this matter. Sooner than later, I know I will make the write decision. Before I go though, I just have to make sure that I smooth out this writing.
