A Lesson: taken from the book of punk mutherfuckers: Anarchy in the UK! *BLAM!*
Dear all:
I have returned to Hamiltown, and I will be around for three weeks, until the 2nd of June. I seek adventure and excitement. I will probably be down with your suggestions.
School: I managed to complain more than ever before about the shittiness of university academic life. Every project was like pulling teeth. Despite my ostensible apathy, I managed to do really really well. I'm pretty awesome like that. Its okay, you don't have to tell me.
I feel like retiring my live journal account. I enjoy reading the stuff other people write, but my updates are never about keeping a journal, but instead are hyperaware literary slag.
I have so many ideas for what I want to do after i graduate next year. I hope that I have the credits I need - I think I do. After convincing one of my favourite professors to be my guide, and writing a thesis in [most likely] a segment of social history or maybe even gender theory, [I need to do some prelimenary {sp?} reading over the summer], applying for and getting my honours, and finishing my classes next april:
I want to do any of the following things with my life:
-Because my parents are selling the house and moving to BC, I want to drive their car across the country and take my time, seeing whatever I have time for. That would be sweet, huh?
-Save enough money to move to Germany for anywhere from 6 months to a year. I learned German this year, and if I were to go there and work for a while, i would have to become fluent, and that would also be effin sweet.
-Travel to Australia and take advantage of my soon to be renewed citizenship (passport), and work there for a while... could be a fun experience.
-apply for one of those esl teaching overseas programs, go to vietnam, or japan, teach english... apparently its a wonderful, if isolating experience.
-start a ska band and play for fun. playing for the wisties were the most fun ive ever had.
-Do some voluteer development work somewhere... anywhere that needs help.
-Continue with schooling, and try for a masters or a teaching degree. Anything would help, I think. I certainly don't want to be tied to a city instantaneously - who knows where I'll go.
Im pretty excited about finishing school. Its been... never. I've never not been in school for an entire year. Maybe I should really consider NOT applying to another degree right away. Damn, but if I don't continue, will I ever go back? Life piles up, even when you're in school.
Next - A recent photograph:
because I'm self-obsessed. You are too. You can't deny it.
My dad made the suggestion while we were in Ottawa visiting my brother that I start a private journal, in which I write for about ten or 15 minutes a day every day form now on. Imagine fifty years from now, if I haven't croacked by then, with a family who would have a record from my youth up until the present day.
