The Fossil Forum: Sedimentary: Waiting To Be Metamorphic - The Fossil Forum

So, this is my first attempt at a blog. I thought that I would just share my thoughts and let you all know what has been going on in my life. I basically have been building upon a foundation over the last 8 years. This has consisted of bettering myself through education: class after class until finally two degrees later and nowhere to go but straight into a brick wall. I find myself stuck. The only way to advance is through state certification and that is coming up in a few days on the 11th of December. If I fail the test then I have to wait another three months to take it again. The last few months have been spent studying, and studying, so much so that I can almost feel my brain starting to push against my skull. All I can do is study and wait. I don’t even feel I have time to go out and search for fossils, which I am very sad over. I have not gone out in a while to hunt and miss it greatly. I am afraid that as I move forward I won’t have as much time as I used to hunt. I desperately hope that is not the case.

However, it’s easy being where I am now because it is comfortable. If I do pass things are going to change greatly. It will be a dynamic shift between learning to do and doing. I have always been one on the move, but now things are starting to settle. I don’t know if that’s what I want. I hope that I can always be vibrant, unique, and inspirational individual throughout my life. I’d rather be metamorphic than sedimentary any day : )
