Challenges to be faced, head on
So life continues to present roadblocks on my path to enlightenment (or a higher degree).
Of the two professors I was going to study under, one is going to be leaving the university, thus thwarting my plans to study with her. I've tried contacting other professors, but apparently my chosen field is not lucrative enough to deserve attention.
Though, through all this frustration, it is good to know I have friends like Carissa who are also going through this same process and are just as confounded with it.
Aside from the academic challenges I face, I also face emotional strife. Still trying to make decisions about a certain someone. Sometimes getting advice from too many people is not a good thing. I like talking about it with these people I trust, but I think the choice is eventually going to be mine and I fully expect some heartbreak at the end...though I'd really rather avoid it.
Also, not getting a role in one of my favorite musicals makes me feel slightly worthless or maybe unappreciated. I can't decide which.
Am I griping too much? Probably.
Cabaret is going well. I enjoy the cast and the show itself.
My job is also going well. I like the people I work with and am enjoying doing different things each day.
I am happy here in Davis. This town really agrees with me and life here is sweet.
I've gone out more in the past couple of weeks than I ever did in college (thanks in part to Carissa) and even though I sometimes regret it the next morning when I have to go to work, I do enjoy my life.
