Soul Suckers.......Land of Cheese......My academic future

Ok, so that's a bit overdramatic, but when have you known me to be otherwise? Whether my words are poetic and kind or bitter and distasteful. My job is sucking my soul dry.

I have had lots to update but much like my moods, my thoughts have been fleeting. I did get a very nice visit to Madison this past weekend. I will always have a place in my heart for good ole' Wisco. I got to hang out on a farm with K and help (sort of) put a hay shed together. I got to build a raging bonfire. And I met some really cool people. We didn't really DO much, but it was the not doing anything that I really enjoyed. I can't wait to see it when the city is in full bloom! Oh the glories. Then I took a short jaunt up to my Aunt Kathy's house and got to meet two of my cousins that I hadn't seen since they were babies. I definitely have to make this a more frequent habit. For several reasons. Anyway...here's some pics of good ole Wisco.






I bought two more books recently, someone please stage an intervention. Is there a 12 step program for book addicts? I'm serious.

I'm feeling anxious, scared, excited, happy, bewildered and befuddled by my future. I started to get in contact with my professors from DePaul to write me recommendation letters for graduate school. I'm terrified with delight. So yea, I am having trouble focusing on a topic, trying to merge all or several of them into one. Here's my train of thought:

ESL (English as Second Language), culture and media studies, linguistics, Latin American Studies, liberation studies, and education) And the concepts or thoughts or ideas I want to produce out of my studies are paradigm shifts, causality, and liberation. he he. I don't ask for much do I?
