I'm feeling kind of sick and realizing that I still haven't figured out whether my parent's health insurance still covers me. It's a scary thought, to be unsure about that. I'm also realizing that I've been out of school for two months and still don't have a job lined up. I wonder if that's normal or whether there are multitudes of new graduates in the same position. I wonder if that means that I'm just not a desirable candidate or whether its just due to the less-than-stellar economic situation. Being stuck in limbo leaves this horrible feeling of uncertainty with a slight tinge of failure. Overall I'm just confused.

Either way, I'm trying to enjoy the "time off" that I have while job searching and relax a bit; stop to better figure out what I want to do with my life. The first few days of lazing around were wonderful, but its getting rather repetitive; need to come up with more productive things to do with my time. I've been reading books, classics, that I've always wanted to read (in order to further my pop cultural edification). Finished 1984 (Orwell) finally, plan on moving on to Animal Farm. I've started looking through graduate school programs and job possibilities overseas, mainly in the UK. Just in case I feel the need to jump ship and get away from US politics. It's really too bad I don't have dual citizenship anywhere. I'm starting to make my way through IY so that Quinn can stop being so pent up about the end of the series. If anyone has any good books to suggest I'd like to know.
