So I've spent the past week in Kingston, visiting Katharine, Sarah and their friends. Laurie was here last weekend too. Its been a nice little getaway from both home and from school - something I've needed. Getting away from the places and contexts that you are immersed can help you find perspective. Even though I constantly feel the itch for some new experience, whether it be a new class, school, trip or what have you, I now feel that in the long run everything will be fine regardless. Life has this funny way of working out, if you let it. I'm seriously considering the life of an academic now - Laurie and Katharine were talking to me about being a prof. Kat seems to think that I'll get a PhD one day. Thats a long way away, and definitely not has hands-on a life that I want right now. We'll see though, learning is such an important part of my life - but again, its all so far away. later skater

For the past few months I've been considering altering my degree a little bit, and now I'm considering altering it a lot. I've been looking at the International Development programme at Keele and I really like what I see. At the same time, I really don't want to leave my programme here at Glendon either - it has much more of a theoretical and analytical grounding than the Devs programme. I'm just getting bogged down in the whole process of actually minoring/double-majoring in Devs. Hopefully I can get it sorted out by Reading Week.
