Wow, you've all been incredibly helpful and inspiring.
I do understand that there are undesireable facets to many jobs, but I seek a job where my duty can not be affected by these. I don't want to screw a person over because it's in my job description. I'd rather leave that to the suits and I will provide an honest product/service to my customer.
I like to tinker, and anything with moving parts is always fascinating. I've never given train maintanence thought before and that actually sounds exciting. Such a large machine with so much momentum, I can only imagine the brake assembly.
I have heard of permaculture an it is very interesting. I plan on signing up for helpexchange and wwoof and some of the listings I've seen mention this so there is an oppurtunity right there!
Last night when I posted I was going through what I've decided to call my hell loops. I get stuck on an idea or thought and instead of thinking of ways to better it I get stuck on ruminating over the negatives. These can take forever for me to get out of but a good night's sleep can be quite effective.
For now I've decided to go ahead and give this semester one more shot. I've switched majors (computer science, programming is very interesting to me) and if I can't find my niche I will move on to learning a trade. Welding, mechanics, it doesn't really matter. I'll know I've found my place when the time is right, for now I wait.
You are all so wonderful for being understanding and giving such great advice.
