  • So I've been looking up college info again...  I want to go into counseling, right?  Well... I juuuust don't know if I would stay in Bloomington for my phd.  I'd rather get that later in life anyway, I think... a lot of schooling.  Maybe after my Masters I'd start a family.. then get my phd later in life after my kids are older.  Anyway, looked up some colleges that specialize in psychology... California seems to be full of what I need.  There's one in Wisconsin.. but only for clinical psychology.  One in Illinois... but not for marriage/family counseling.  And here's California's list of colleges that just seems to be perfect for me:


    Argosy University -


    Counseling Psychology, Clinical Psychology, Marriage and Family Therapy, Organizational Leadership, Forensic Psychology


    Dominican University of California -


    Counseling Psychology, Marriage & Family Therapy


    Mount St. Mary's College -


    Counseling Psychology, Marriage & Family Therapy, Human Services & Personnel Counseling


    Saybrook Graduate School and Research Center of San Francisco -


    Psychology, Marriage & Family Therapy


    University of Phoenix -


    Marriage, Family & Child Counseling, Family & Child Therapy


    University of San Franciso - School of Education -

    Counseling Psychology - Marriage & Family Therapy

    And did Indiana pop up in the search results?  mm no.  lol, oh well.  Pretty sure I'd be a happier camper to finally get out of Indiana.  California... hm.  Not that bad I guess.  I'm just frightened of earthquakes.  Tried to find something in New Mexico, Arizona, or Texas (three places I believe I'd like to live someday).  Didn't find anything too promising...  Only one thing that bothers me.  Some of those colleges in CA are Catholic schools.  I'm not... Catholic.  I guess that doesn't matter.  But that'll be so damned expensive.  -_-  Ooooh weeeeeell.  They most likely wouldn't be considered "party schools" ahem.  Many years from now anyway.  Who knows what I'll be doing.  Bloomington seems to have everything I need...  But you know... I've lived in Ft. Wayne... in the same house my entire life.  Then I'm just going to move a little south and live in Indiana even longer.  Never been on a vacation besides Cedarpoint and Arizona.  (and of course I fell in love with Arizona... makes sense)  0_0 If I end up staying... it's very likely I'll end up getting settled... not really wanting to move... possibly find a husband who wants to live in Indiana.. end up staying here and finally getting a phD... have my nightmare come true.  The midwestern, suburban family life for my future.  Hmmmmm.... Shelbi needs more excitement than that.  Although Shelbi will also be broke... I think Shelbi needs to just focus on high school for now.    Maybe I'll just be an actress and marry Tom Cruise.  Problems solved!

  • hmm Tom Cruise...sounds like a good plan. haha, you take him, as long as I get Ewan McGregor...that'll be perfect. lol...

  • Hmm... and where do you plan to get the money to live in California, and go to a California school?  lol, that will be just a slight hole in your plan there, I think... but it's a good start!  I'm not sure if I want to spend all that time in Indiana either, but I can at least tell you that Bloomington is like no other place in Indiana, trust me.  It seems like a completely different state.  Everything, the people, the activities, the buildings, the food, the political views... everything is completely different.  You'll see.  Plus once you get there out of your mom's grasp, you can run off on little road trip vacations whenever you want!!
