Apt-to-do tests

can be more of a problem than a help.  If you score pretty consistently across the board, with no real stand-out areas, the interpreter/counselor tells you "Oh, you can do anything you want!"

But what if you don't know what you want to be when you grow up?

And that's the big cement barrier that I ran into with my own problems. I'm good at math. I'm good at writing. I'm good at science. I'm good with drafting. I'm...not great at speaking. I could do anything I want! ...So what do I want to do?

Eight years later, I find out that I like accounting. Good thing I didn't rack up any student loans while I was floundering.

Yeah, took me awhile too -- but longer than that 8 years!

Beats me...

I'm STILL trying to figure it out. Apparently, I'm running away to join a rock and roll band, live with the 27 year old bassist/singer, and take band photographs. Which pretty much covers "Apt to do anything" when you're a gramma...

Does that count as "running away to join the circus"? I think it'd be a close match :D

I have this fabulous idea! You should start making really, really wonderful-smelling soaps, and...

... oh, wait. :D :D :D

Working on stocking up the website -- maybe I'll ask someone to mention it in Evil_Enablers when I have at least 3 types up!

"If I knew what I wanted to do, I wouldn't be HERE, I'd be off doing it!"

[zianuray.livejournal.com]

Precisely!

But, now that I know, they're telling me I shouldn't. And I'm sure you can figure out what effect THAT has! How you been, Hon? Hadn't heard from you in a long while!

But... but they said you could do whatever you wanted to! Thank you Career Advisors. "What can I say? I advise that you have a career."

Good, cold, dug out the wool skirts and mittens and sadly put away the summer dresses. This winter thing is hard to get the hang of - seasonal clothing, what?! Never had to do an actual wardrobe switch before. I hope you're waking up every morning this summer and going "Ah, my feet are warm! Hooray!" because it DESERVES a "Hooray!" if anything on this earth does.

On the up side, affords ample opportunity to put cold extremities on significant other's unsuspecting stomach, without holding them in the freezer first.
