I've been under a lot of stress lately (not necessarily bad, just stress) as I cull through information about graduate programs and decide what I'm going to study. I thought I had my degree all mapped out, but as has happened to me many times, someone asked the fateful question "are you sure?"; and the answer to that, for me, is always "no." So my parents have been helping me look through information about a somewhat different program that would have me doing more abstract writing and research rather than hands-on clinical work, and I'm hesitant to change, but interested in having more opportunities. I've visited one college so far and am digging through websites, and once again facing the question of who I am and what I'm doing in life. Neither of which I have answered yet. And yes, I am very aware that I am 25 years old. :-)
I have also, as has been evident on Sunshine and Shadow, been thinking a lot about marriage lately ... not for any particular reason, as there are certainly still no young men on my horizon; mostly just because so many people are getting married, and it makes me feel uncomfortable, like any good Anne Shirley or Jo March feels at this time of life. The discomfort has, interestingly, produced some interesting musings and I actually think I might be getting somewhere in my attitudes.
And when I don't have the mental power to philosophize, I just watch videos of my dear Josh Groban and hope I don't end up like the spinster on Alfred Hitchcock Presents who pursued her celebrity crush around the world and wound up in an appropriately horrifying situation ...
Well, I'd better go study a bit for my quizzes tomorrow before heading for bed - tomorrow is one of those days where I'm going to try to be superhuman and do three days' worth of work in one. :-) I'm so thankful that the Lord will sustain me!!
Lots of love,
Vicki
