I just got married & that apparently takes up a ton of your time. I even had my best friend as my wedding planner & her sister as day of coordinator & I was still busy with wedding stuff. I know people plan weddings & hold down jobs at the same time but I'm super grateful I lost mine (hey, where'd my job go? Oh, to some other person. Never mind.) when I did. It seems odds are I'd have lost it eventually when my brain was fully consumed by wedding stuff. Ok, that's not fair & probably only partly true.
Anyhoozle, the wedding is done & the marriage has begun. We went to London on our honeymoon & it was FABULOUS! We also managed to get to Paris for an overnight & that was magical. My husband is amazing & supportive & thinks my brain is sexy. Well, that my mind is sexy not my actual grey matter, that would be disturbing & gross on numerous levels. He suggested I take this opportunity to go back to school & get my master's degree - even if it's not for a job just go back to school & learn more. It's something I've been bandying about for like ever, I just need to firm up what I want to go to school for. Going back to school is a major decision & knowing me, I need to be really interested in whatever I plan on studying. My first inclination is to get my master's in history - it's a subject in which I've always been interested & I even got my minor in history back when I got my BA in English. That's the other major interest for me, literature, or maybe film studies even but that drips of pretension. There are so many options but like I said I need to be into it 100% or I foresee a struggle & why sign up for a struggle. That said, anything worth doing is going to be ... not 'difficult' per se but not 'easy' either. If it was easy, everyone would do it.
Stupid James Franco getting 18 zillion degrees from prestigious universities & making it look effortless.
