I received a phone call at work today, which I probably shouldn't have answered, but I did. I'm glad I did, because it was a phone call from an admissions counselor from Evangel University. Last night, I began looking at different Clinical Master's programs that are taught at Christian colleges and landed at Evangel's website.
They have an option at a Clinical or Counseling Psychology Master's degree, which would take 2-3 years to complete part time. I can definitely handle that workload. Not to mention, guy from Evangel whose name I cannot remember, told me I have great credentials to get in now. When I told him I have two years until I graduate, he acted shocked. I only need two more Psychology classes to get into the program, along with taking my GRE. That's very exciting. That is a prime example of how hard work pays off.
Anyway, I know I keep going back and forth with my career choice; whether I want to pursue Marketing or Psychology. I enjoy Psychology more and I feel I am better at it, but the options I searched in the past had entailed at least five years of school, full time. This option is much more reasonable and I can still pursue what I love, helping others.
In addition to this revelation, I have been in a great mood lately. I have been talking to an amazing guy who God placed in my life. Little things like late night talks and daily "good mornings" can turn an average day into something memorable. Whether we end up as friends or something more, I know God will always be in the center of it all.
He actually encouraged me to pursue the Clinical track I spoke of earlier. Sometimes it just takes an outside opinion to see something you had overlooked. That's pretty neat. :)
