Confession

I don't want to do massage therapy anymore. I'm too exhausted and I don't enjoy it like I enjoy music. :(
The end.

So what are you doing? Is there anything in music anywhere in the state that you can find with music? Anywhere in the country?

So, I'm working at a Subway in Taylorsville (but looking for a new job since my hours got cut to about 20/week...NOT cool)during the day and going to classes every night Monday-Thursday and then I have my clinic rotation Saturdays (noon-6:30). I am technically still employed with the dance studio I played for up in Ogden and am trying to get some hours back at the Salt Lake studio but I'm not counting on much (if I find a better job though I probably won't be able to do the dance studio unless the hours line up perfectly). I applied for a job at a piano studio in Holladay but it advertised the wrong hours and I can't do those hours (they would be perfect minus the fact that I would be off at 7 and class starts at 7). My hours at Subway just recently got cut so I'm just now starting to search again. As for a permanent career in music, unless I can depend on teaching piano and clarinet lessons for my main source of income I'm not likely going to use music as a profession. It's a hobby and keeps me sane, but I burn out if I do it hours a day, every day, every week, every month and so on. I guess I'm kind of blabbing at this point. My degree in music won't get me terribly far as a musician since it's not a master's or doctorate, and it's still very difficult to find jobs period. There is a chance I'm just beyond burned out with school (haven't had a single break since January and won't until Christmas/graduation...graduation is the weekend before Christmas)and maybe I'll actually enjoy doing massage again once I'm out working and getting paid, but who knows. Right now I just don't want to see another naked body on a table and have to rub lotion on them. I don't want a permanent job here in Utah as I still want to move out of state when I'm done, but how am I going to find a job that will let me work more than 20 hours a week (which money-wise is just not working out) for only 5 months? .... I hope I'm making sense...I bet my thoughts are as clear as mud right now. Long story short-I don't know what the heck I'm going to do with myself for the next 5 months. I can't stay at my current job, I need insurance and I want out of Utah. Yeah...like that's going to happen. :-/
