Etsy Store!

I finally opened my own Etsy store! It's up and running and ready for people. Just click on my banner and it will take you to my page. I sell rings, and will soon add more as soon as I make more products. Also, these are made to order, so if you do not see anything in your size, just let me know and I will make it. Next to be posted in the near future are earrings.

This is all handmade with love by me (:

Moving Out and Moving On With Life

So, I guess this is like a part 2 to my previous post, but this one is more about the fears I have about being successful. I literally don't think I have the courage to leave my childhood home. That's so lame because everyone needs to leave eventually. I have been making all these plans and plans of plans and different versions of plans about where to move, what to do and blah blah. 

The basis of my two main plans are move to Minnesota or stay here and move to the city. That in itself is a hard decision. To leave the place I've called home and have grown comfortable with for 20 years or up and move to a new state completely and see where that journey takes me? I love Minnesota, I really do, and I would love to move there... but something is holding me back. Maybe it's uncertainty, maybe it's guilt. Guilt that I haven't spent enough time with my parents, guilt that I'm leaving them... this is what I talked about in my previous post. Do not guilt your children!! Because then they turn into me and won't leave home.

I've just gotten used to the city since I commute to school there everyday and I know Chicago has a lot of opportunities for psychologists, more so than Minnesota. But again, this is the only place I've known. I want to leave but I want to stay. I want to see if there is something more out there for me. I really don't like Chicago but I know I'll miss it when I move away. It's a comfort thing, too. I feel comfortable here because I know everything and if I move, I will know nothing.

But then again... my parents moved to a whole new country without knowing the language so who am I to talk about comfort and uncertainty..

I don't know what will make me most successful. I don't even know what I want to do anymore. I know I want to earn my PhD, but confusion has invaded my brain. At this point, I just want to stay at home and do nothing forever. College does this to you, I guess.
