So, I don't have a proper job and I'm not taking any real classes. What in the world am I doing with all this time other than watching my requisite 5 hours a week of television? It's a weird state to be in. I have much to do but no one telling me when or how to do it. I've made up some goals to help me structure my time, and so far I think it's helping.
Here's a list of the things I have to do and some goals I've made for this semester:
- Study for the GRE
- Apply to PhD programs, which entails filling out applications, talking to professors about letters of recomendation, writing personal statements, chosing and editing writing samples, and for London I actually have to write a dissertation proposal, which I still have a lot of research to do.
- Try to get published. I have to edit papers I think might be publishing worthy and send them off.
- Edit my thesis.
- Work and find another job
- Watch a movie every day
- Write in my blog every day
- Read at least one scholarly article every day
- Be creative, not just crafty.
- Spend time building relationships with family and friends.
sounds like a fun semester! i am glad you ar watching all these tv shows! i finally have a tv now! and i'm super excited about that. is only local channels, but is still pretty cool. like you I also like America's Next Top Model. I haven't seen it in a while but I usually watch the marathons when they have them on MTV. anyway, two shows that I would like to recommend to you: Glee and Bored to Death. Glee is on Fox I believe, but I just watch in on hulu. is a silly show and the I did not love it the first time I watched it, but is an acquiring taste and I really like it now. the second show I am into is Bored to Death. is an HBO show with Jason Schartzman and is super funny. I just watch it online. btw, have you been keeping up with Mad Men's season three? Because I've had and is sooo good. Did you already watch the episode in Rome?
