Personal Trainer Part Deux

I'm thinking of becoming a personal trainer again. This time I will take the ACE Fitness Exam next March 2010 and then take the USA Triathlon Coach Level 1 Certification next April 2010. Then if I still can't find an accounting job when my unemployment runs out in February, I will go to Equinox and apply again to become a personal trainer.

On my swimming progress, I can now swim for three or four breaths. Definite progress. I think I can compete in a sprint triathlon next March. I just have to find out which one to register for.

My Internet at home works! It just got hooked up this afternoon.

I just bought a laser printer duplex to print out the CFA notes so that I can sell them. I just need to get the CFA materials. I emailed about them. I think if I sold 20 books/flashcards, I would make enough in a month. This is just to tide me over until I make the big bucks as a personal trainer.

When I am a personal trainer, you're going to miss my updates.

I may be photo mobile blogging. I will still have my iPhone.

Yep, I just have to make sure I do well on the interview and I will have a whole new chapter in my life.

I am trying to talk myself off the ledge.


My job is not that bad. I should just make the most of it. Do I really want to train people all day long at the gym? What if I hated it there as well?

Maybe I can get a job at NBC.

I have a Stretch session. I know, I know, I wasn't supposed to, but I have to meet my personal trainer to get tips for my interview next Monday.

I wrote a letter of resignation.


I am really hoping the interview tomorrow with TenZan III and the interview with Equinox on Monday go well and I can really do this. It makes the next few days bearable. Knowing there is a light at the end of the tunnel.

Yes, the senior manager is out tomorrow! YAYAY!

I am hoping for the best, that I can quit and become a personal trainer and bartender. If it goes well, I will be making more than what I currently make. I would not even give notice. I would resign effective immediately.

TenZan III

Yay, I got a response to one of the bartending positions and it's at 52nd/53rd on 2nd Avenue, that's about 2 blocks from where I will move to!

If I can get a job as a bartender and work as a personal trainer, I would quit my day job.

Exciting times.

Major turmoil.


Now a bigger situation is that my company has a new chief. So the likelihood of the division we're supporting gets sold is very high. So that means my job position is very shaky. I am not sure if I should move out and hope for the best. If I sell the apartment, my parents can subsidize my living situation and I can get the rest from unemployment.

I will still most likely move. I can always bartend and become a personal trainer.
