This is going to be a long story, so please bear with me.
So I recently got accepted into a nursing program whic starts in June. I graduated with my first BS in December 2016 so I'm not a student at the moment. I can't wait to start the program and it is great to have some time off before I start the program but I also feel hollow and anxious thinking about what I'll do with these few gap months prior to June before I move down to a different city to begin the program.
I have a CNA license so I thought I could maybe work as a CNA until I start the program but the facility I wish to work at was not really interested in hiring me because I would only be working for a good solid 2 months after a long hiring process. I'm also going out of country for 2 weeks in February so I feel like right now is not the right time to be looking for a part time job.
I'm not really an outgoing person so I don't go out to hang out with friends (I don't have friends in town in the first place because they all went back to their hometowns and went to graduate school somewhere else). So since my graduation, working out and reading books have been all I do in a day. I feel like a loser not being socially active and engaged and this feeling is eating at me and causing me to dig a hole and feel bad about myself.
I know I need to be thankful for what I have and making into the program but having to wait another few months without doing anything meaningful is really torturous to me. I guess I'm just not sure what I should be doing right now and for the next few months. It just feels so awkward, meaningless, and guilty to be doing nothing after all those years of studying and just having something to do everyday. Are there any part time jobs that will hire me just for 2-3 months? Should I do some pre-study before I start the program? I just need something meaningful that I can commit myself into.
Any suggestion or advice would be much appreciated... Thanks in advance!!
