Whenever I'm nervous or stressed, I always feel the need to write. I don't know why I've just always been that way. I need to write a book. Don't know what about, but I should. It dawned on me that I should have been doing stuff for grad school a long time ago. But I think I just actually decided to go next year very recently. I'm still researching schools, so far there are about 5 I want to apply to. Several I'm considering "safety" schools. But they should still be good programs. I'm not applying anywhere in Michigan because then I'll only have a limited lisence and will only be able to work in the mid-west. (Eww.) My top 2 schools thus far are Ball State in Indiana and the Teachers College of Columbia. Obviously Columbia will be a reach and I'd shit my pants if I actually got in. I've met the most awesome guy in the world. Who is encouraging me to apply to better schools and making me push myself.
And no we're not dating. I wouldn't be opposed to it in the future but right now I need to concentrate on grad school and my future. He also isn't ready for any type of relationship so we're just hanging out and having fun whenever we can both find the time. Which isn't often. I've never met someone that encourages me and pushes me like he does. Even if nothing comes of "us" he's definately been a great influence and I will always remember him and be thankful.
