I’m a senior in college, and the good news is I will be graduating in May! The bad news is, for as long as I can remember, I had a goal set for myself that I would get a teacher’s certificate in college, and of course things got in the way and I failed to do that. By the way, my major is German and I want to be a language teacher. I’ve been searching various want ads for a teacher, but they all require a teacher’s certificate (thanks in part to the No Child Left Behind Act). I was hoping to get a provisional license and then get certified while teaching, but I don’t know if they offer that route anymore. So, I wonder how I should punish myself, because I’ll pay dearly for this. I’ll probably end up in the “unemployed and living with my parents” category, all because I didn’t meet my life-long goal that would have gotten me a teaching job. I thought about beating myself up (which I’ve tried a little) or stabbing myself in a NON-vital organ, but I really don’t want too much pain. Suicide, while tempting, is not really an option either, because my family loves me way too much. But I’m so MAD and REGRETFUL at myself about this! WAS SOLL ICH DENN TUN?? If anyone is in a similar boat, how have you dealt with it?
