Procrastinating on a Saturday Night!

I wish I didn't waste so much time on the internet... I feel a little ridiculous that I can't tear myself away. I know that if I had a good book, or a movie, or something active to do to look forward to I wouldn't even give it a second thought, but for some reason if I have to get homework done I can't stop exploring every corner of the internet until I've wasted at least thirty minutes to an hour. I wonder if I will ever find a subject or topic related to school that inspires me enough to want to do it right away instead of procrastinate. I really enjoy writing, but not for school... maybe I should have been a "creative writing" major. However that's probably the one major that leads to even less jobs than anthropology after college. ha. I wonder where I fit in society's machinery; I clean or cook to relax and as lame as it sounds, both of those things are cathartic and kind of treats for me to look forward to. So maybe that's a sign that I'm pre-destined to be a housewife. Oh baby, things are looking up now! haha.

But seriously, I wish I had more of an idea or plan other than "I am interested in law." ...because I don't know to what extent or what area, or anything beyond that one fact. I have realized after taking a few classes about criminal law and prisons that I am very fascinated by that area of things. I don't, however, want to spend a career as a public defender or in any job which can be as depressing and demoralizing as that one. On the other hand, if I could somehow prepare and harden myself emotionally I might be able to handle something like that. I'm not sure though, I tend to care too much, in general. I guess we will have to see where everything falls into place after I graduate. Which, I should mention, is in about two and a half months. Cheers to that at least!!
