I've had somewhat of a revelation in the past few days as far as where I want to be after I finish *this* degree in April. I think I want to go back to school in the fall of 2007; earlier than I had thought, but I think I need a change of scenery more than anything, and if I'm in a program that I quite enjoy somewhere else, I can stand being a student for a few more years. Because, dammit, I really like being a student. Why be in a rush?
So I'm going to have to a) find a program somewhere (I'm thinking UVic, UBC, SFU, Waterloo, UT, Ryerson, York, Carlton, UO, McGill, Dal as they all can offer something I'm looking for); and b) decide whether massive amounts of debt are worth it (although a co-op program would lessen things quite nicely :)); and c) finish this year well and happy but ready to move on.
All this is tentative, and could change in a day or a week or a month. But I'm feeling quite good about this. I think.
Now, back to PowerPoint presentations! Fun.
Oh, and where'd the sun go? It was quite a nice sunny morning, as Sunday mornings ought to be, but now it's grey yet again. Seasonal affective disorder really seems to be an issue for me.
Brushing others' teeth: a turnon for anyone besides the woman on the radio (albeit scripted)?
