I am currently giddy with the sort of freedom that comes with being on summer break...or possibly a more substantial year-long break, as that is what I am currently planning -- taking a year off, and starting over next fall in a graduate program in library science. It's quite a change from the French literature thing that I've been doing for the past year (well, past five years, counting undergrad!), but after a lot of thinking and stressing, it seems like the right thing to do. This past year's been a learning experience, in which I discovered that being a college French professor is oh-so-not how I want to spend the rest of my life. Being a young adult librarian sounds like a better plan. I've got lots of time left to plan for forever.

What's more immediate is what I'm doing next year, and my current plan is to do this. I'm thinking of leaving in September, and between now and then...I'm going to move out of this apartment and this city, go back to my family, get a job, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera.

So, that's what's new. (:
I expect that I'll have more time and more inclination to update my journal now that it's summer and now that I have more to say than 'I hate school//I hate life//I hate humanity!' over and over and over again!
