Lacking an off switch

After reading this weeks assignment, it was hard for me to choose which person's story was most like my own.  There was some similarity in most of them.  I think the one that was most similar was Jessica's story, "Lacking an off switch."

The reason this story is most relevant to my own life is that, like Jessica, I had always known what I wanted to do and I have been doing it for many years.  When I graduated high school, I went straight into beauty school.  I knew I wanted to be a hairdresser.  It had always been a hobby and an intrest of mine, so it seemed only natural.  For a long time I loved my job.

However, as time has passed, I have become disenchanted with it.  I am still very passionate about it, but the practicality in that line of work has burned out for me.  It is time for a change.  It took me a very long time to figure out what that change would be, but I think nursing will be a good fit for me.
