how exciting.

so, because of a freak accident in the graduate admissions office of emerson college, i got a postcard announcing their fall and spring graduate open houses, and am now reconsidering the grad school thing. ugh. i thought i had already made this decision. ugh. so, now i'm back to asking myself, "to go or not to go?" ugh. do i reconsider moving to the city in may? do i reconsider a career in television production (however short-lived it may be) in favor of a career in children's theatre education? ugh. and, like any good instant messenger junkie, i put one of the most important decisions of my life in the hands of those that read my profile (and, potentially, this too). ha. obviously, it won't come down to that, but it is better than flipping a coin, in my mind. ugh.

so, i couldn't help but wonder... (hi, my name is ashley and i am addicted to sex and the city) why is it that something such as a postcard can make me reconsider a decision that i was previous set on? how does anyone's life manage to turn on a dime? let's stick with what i know... my life: there's the now-little once-big things like my parents divorcing and having to change schools umpteenth times before i was ten. or giving up the saxophone in favor of cheerleading. or choosing to come to su. or rushing phi sig. granted, all of those things seem like the right-fit for me in hindsight, but some decisions (when a choice was given to me, of course) were easier to make than others.

but i'm old enough to know that the decisions only get harder the older i get. ugh. but my life has somehow changed, and vastly improved, because of all of those events. and i'm relatively certain that it will happen when this decision is made as well.

ugh.

current tally as of 12:48am:
to go to grad school or not to go to grad school?
yes, education = good: 0
no, move to new york instead: 2
or, option 3, courtesy of kim-- grad school IN ny: 1

grad school, decisions
