So I'm back here again, staring at all the pretty girls.
It's great stress relief while I'm working on my Master's essay- start to get frustrated and annoyed and I just want the damn thing to be over so I can have my fucking piece of paper that says I am a Master of Psychology- so I click over and look at gorgeous women.
Right now I'm making some tea and trying to motivate myself to start the literature review section of my paper. The plan was to have ten pages done and APA formatted to the best of my ability before I leave to go up north for 4th of July weekend..... but it does not really look like that's going to happen. The outline is finally done, and all the research is done, but I just can't make myself wade through the pages and pages of psych journal articles-- even with my ten million colorful highlighters. I always try to get fun office supplies when I am working on a long project. I think it's really the fact that I've been in college non-stop for six years. No summer off, ever. And now, with the economy the way it is and my fiance's refusal to move away from Michigan, I have to go back for another degree. ANOTHER MASTER'S DEGREE. One which will take me two years of non-stop work and unpaid internships. Then, I get to spend a year trying to get licensed, which also does not pay me anything.
It's pretty much a nightmare.
On a happier note, I am getting married in less than four months, and since Ritz laid my fiance off, he's getting unemloyment and we get to spend all our time together. Sometimes it's me at the dining room table with all of my research papers and laptop while he plays video games, sometimes it's a nighttime bike ride on campus, or a movie. It's just great to be with him.
Right now I am thinking of just letting this lit review thing go and taking a roadtrip to Ikea to get a new entertainment center/crapton of bookshelves since we are renewing our lease on the apartment.
I think it's time for me to check the Ikea website for our needs, and go on a little fieldtrip of awesomeness.
I love Ikea.
