So, since I'm unemployed and have no plans for either going to any school or finding any job as yet (although I assure you I've been looking), I somehow thought it would be a good idea to see if I couldn't figure out how much it would cost me and a travel companion to get to Memphis.  This was mostly inspired by Tiff's Experimental Travel book and

Plan my wedding.....

I don't know I can't say I really blame you for wanting to travel, I want to. I've never been on a trip myself. I have to admit that I do get envious sometimes of people who can just pick up and go on a trip. I work a lot, I save most of what I make but I can't affoard a trip. Mostly because I can't justify it for myself. Right now what I want more than anything else in the world is to get married to james but we can't afford it. So why don't you throw caution to the wind, if you can afford it, do it. That is my advice. I can't have fun but I encourage others to.

For a conference?

Not a clue. I spend some days looking at Master's programs, an equal number of days looking at photography schools, and once in awhile I feel I should get some sort of job instead of/before really pursuing either of those. And until I figure out which of these I shall choose, it seems I'm stuck in Bridgewater.

I could see you being a therapist. I am thinking more along taking the counselling course down at unb, being like a school councellor. Just because you are such a caring individual, and you woudl have summers off so you would be able to take summer trips.

Or I think maybe you just need to work for a year at a decent paying job, of really anything, while you research into different vocations and schools, the best thing I think you can do is to just talk to ppl. And by working for a yaer you can make your self independant and have lots of cash flow. I think you don't really know what your focus is right now, so I think that perhaps you woudl be better off in taking a year off to try to find out what your focus is.

Not everyone knows after graduation what they want to do with their lives. A year off also makes you to be seen by grad schools are more appealing, as to why I am not sure, perhaps because it seems like you are more serious.

You should try and look for some Memphis area livejournal communities and perhaps they will be able to point you in the direction of some very reasonably priced hostals and accomidation options. Well, it has worked good for me, looking for info for ottawa and quebec!
