Child/adolescent psychotherapist.

I'd love to be in a high school or somewhere in the inner city of this country or another teaching young minds that they're much more than "kids with issues" who are trapped in a world that'll never work for them. I'd like to teach them to love and believe in themselves.

Admittedly, I sound like a dreamer but if it weren't for a few teachers who pulled me out of a 16 year funk by teaching me to utilize my natural talents and interests to build self-esteem - I'd have no idea where I'd be right now. Probably still skating in front of my old high school...

Right now I've got a pretty cool job working for an armored car company (bye bye Barnes & Noble) in the vault processing high valued "pieces" and processing them for shipment to various destinations. It's really laid back in comparison to my old job and it lacks a lot of the bullshit that comes along with working in a high energy (meaning short staffed) retail environment. And it pays twice as much.
