This wasn't on my to-do list...

...but here I am anyway. It's been well over two months since I last posted in this thing. Not that such an absence is unprecedented, but it's certainly the first time that's happened in the past couple of years

sounds pretty busy to me, but in the best of ways.

I wish I had more time to dedicate to school. maybe I would've had my undergrad degree by now. :(

Well, I also don't think I accurately conveyed how I'm feeling about stuff (kind of hard to do when you haven't written about your life in a while). There's a whole lot of everything going on.

But, you know what? I think you're right. Mostly it is the good kind of busy, although there are times (frequent times) when I feel I'm about to have an actual nervous breakdown. Generally, the feeling passes, though.

Rambling thoughts - typical of my recent thought processes. Sorry!

Hmm. Good fodder for my confused thoughts about going back for a master's degree. I really would like to do my doctorate in Linguistics, but no one's going to pay for that. El governmento here, however, might consent to putting me through a CS degree. I'm just not sure I'm ready to apply myself again... huh. Best of luck getting through everything. I admire your dedication!

You'd get full funding if you did it here. That's how I'm making it through. :)

Not bad! Is that a general Canadian thing or a more-specific-location thing?

[ferebend]

Hmmm... I think funding is on the whole better in Canada, but I can't say for sure whether full funding is all that common. McGill's Linguistics department, however, guarantees full funding for all students.
