I'm odd
I've been thinking, which is a dangerous enterprise. I've been thinking that I miss school. I miss going to campus, staying up till 3 am, ditching classes, studing at the library, complaining about homework, trying to fight my way through crowds on campus, the JFSB... I miss school. Work is great and I love being all gradumatated, but I miss the college life. Don't get me wrong -- I'm still in Provo living with students, but the difference is that I'm not one. I go to bed before midnight, get up at incredibly insane hours, spend my whole day with pubescent adolescents, and come home with no homework. The no homework thing was nice for awhile, but it's getting old. I wish I had more to do and more to work on. I'd go back, but I'm not sure I want to. I know, it seems like some sort of sick oxymoron, but I don't really want to go get a masters. Why? I don't like the masters programs available to me at BYU. I'd have to go to Utah State to get one I want (or even worse, go to the U). I want to stay in Provo, which isn't reasonable if I want a masters. I'd do one online, but honestly, I would never work on it. With no deadlines and in-class pressure, I'd flop for sure. So thus is my dilemma. Maybe I should look into working part-time and going to school part-time. But I don't know if I like that idea either. Boo. I thought being graduated would make life easier. It kind of has, but I'm bored. My mind is bored and that's not a very good feeling. I need to learn something. Any ideas of things I'd be interested in learning about and that I could do from my current station in life? I thought about picking up a hobby, but learning is my favorite hobby. I already occasionally bake and write, and I still read all the time. Hmm... I guess I could get into something random like underwater basket weaving, but how do you get into that? Ah well, I'm sure as the semester picks up, I'll be less bored. Or figure out a way to challenge myself more than I'm being challenged now. But what a random thing to be troubled by. I'm odd...
