So I guess I do need to come up with some sort of Life Plan
that I can then tweak and force to fit the mold for that damn Personal
Statement/Essay. I do not know why I am
fighting this so hard -- going to Grad School is going to liberate me from
working at Starbucks! And my god, I want
that so bad.
I guess one of the reasons I hate this Personal
Statement/Essay is that I am not looking for a career to fulfill me -- to
complete me. I am looking for a
reasonably enjoyable career that will allow me to pursue my passions and hobbies. I want a home of my very own. I want to travel and photograph all sorts of
wildlife.
David made a good point -- I should tell them a good
story. And I can write a good,
passionate story (essay) about wanting to get my degree to work with antique
historical documents. Which I would love
to do -- but will be getting my degree in something a bit more practical. But they do not need to know that Alright, I feel better now that I have some
sort of a game plan. Now....to just
WRITE the damn thing.
