peace
I'm home for a while on my break, have to be back by two. The house has a lovely reek of garlic from tonights dinner cooking away in the crockpot, I guess six cloves would do that.

I really shouldn't have waiting until last night to start on my therapy homework. She said it may take an hour or two but I don't think that calculated the time at me to become bitchy and overwhelmed with it. Self assesment stuff. oh well I've done about 80% of it. Not like we will get through all of it tonight. We never do.

So I talked to my advisor yesterday and she thinks I should stay until next September instead of graduating out in June. That would be the full 18 months of the program. I had to start examining what my rush was besides the fact that I can't take 2 classes and maintain financial aid. Somewhere in the back of my head is drilled that no one will hire me (believe my talent) as a designer until I had that piece of paper that said I was legit. Well for one I've never envisioned myself working at a design firm and two if I did I could be interning in those last quarters if I wasnt' taking such a large load of classes. I'm getting too wrapped up in the suddenly legitamacy by paper, especially considering a large amount of the graphic students either come into school already doing freelance or starting shortly thereafter. Ugh i hate when I realize that i've gotten caught in some kinda conventional thinking trap.

I guess I need to fix that.
