Is it bad that I want to go to grad school as far away from Ohio as possible?
I randomly started searching Communications masters just a minute ago, to see what sort of focuses they have and if any attract me. And several did in California, but I found myself annoyed that I didn't find any big ones in Arizona, New Mexico, etc. I didn't even look at East Coast schools... which is probably selfish. But the idea of being around here is not appealing. In fact, the only geographic area that lures me away is the West, just because it's so different, because I could see myself being happy and healthy there for a new chapter in my life. I don't think I'd want ot stay out there forever, but grad school seems to be the perfect chance.
I wasn't intending on California, but it appears to be a Communications hub... bahh. It's really going to suck if it's where all the best are, because I don't think I can afford to live in California without a huge scholarship and my housing paid for by my school. Which won't happen, as I'm not a PhD.
None of this should concern me yet, as all my options are wide open, but it is bothersome to realize some part of me really wants to go far away and is unconvinced it can set bad things behind it if it doesn't. It's never good to think that way, but...
