I don't really have much to say but I felt like updating

I often do that (staring at the cieling while typing) because it means that I don't read what I've just written as I'm typing- it's great for stream-of-consciousness style writing. I don't know if your entry was trying to do that, but it makes sense that journal entries would benefit from cieling-viewing.

It wasn't an attempt at stream of consciousness just me not being able to put some things into words while I'm looking at them, if that makes any sense. probably not.

I know how you feel, and I definitely sympathize. And if you decide to stay in Houston during your sabbatical, you could be my roommate (since I'll likely need one)... Either way, if you take that time off, I think it's very likely that you'll come back with a renewed appreciation for academia. (Especially considering the crappy jobs that are out there... Good Lord. When I took time off after undergrad, I knew I would eventually attend grad school... Working for a full year in retail convinced me that academia is a pretty darn fabulous place to be.)

Yeah, that's exactly what I'm thinking. I doubt I'll find a job that makes me so happy that I will just want to be a...whatever for the rest of my life. I think I'll find something crappy and then want to return to school.

I've been feeling the same way. I'm just completely restless and I want to travel. I'm fixing my consistenly weird mood by moving off campus next fall and studying abroad next spring, and hoping that when I come back senior year I'll appreciate school that much more... I guess they call it the sophomore slump for a reason! Plus, whenever I call my mom she reminds me that whenever she was at Hill in February everyone looked like zombies. It may just be that time of year.

Maybe moving off campus would help, but I don't think it will work for me. Other solutiosn are called for.

i'm restless. i'm graduating in may...haven't applied to grad school, seriously considering a year off to figure things out. nothing wrong with that...there's nothing THAT good in my future that i see myself NOT going back to school.
