A theme I found as I read yesterday. Yet again I was without internet for a good two hours so I read cause nothing was on T.V. and I didn’t feel like putting in a movie. Again I thought I would just read a chapter or two. I stopped at chapter four the day before so in theory I should be at chapter six, um yeah no. The Golden Compass, which is the first book in His Dark Materials, is split into three parts (it’s the only book that is split into parts). I just go to part three, which starts with chapter 18. But that wasn’t done in the two hours, I think I stopped at chapter 12 then. And continued this morning when I work up. This is weird for me, most books I read I could get through in two hours, I’m that fast at reading. But those books are usually paperback books. But this book is a softbound book…but it’s a big as normal hardbound books. But its like four times as thick. And it could be that I’m having to take the time and pick out all the many themes that are happening in this book. As much as I love romance books, you usually don’t find many on-curring things happening in them. Needless to say, and I’ve said it before, but I’ll say it again, I’m enjoying this book.
Well the email came back form my dad, and there’s nothing in there about me jobless. I added a paragraph about the struggles I’m having with my personal statement, and he gave me some tips on that. I would dare to say that me going back to school is more important to him. And I don’t know how to feel about that. Like should I just stop trying to find a job or what? I mean should I hope that I get enough financial aid that I could afford to go to school and maybe even find living arrangements? If I get into my old ala mater then a friend as already said she would help with transportation until I found a car.
I just don’t know. I just don’t know.
Another friend brought up a college near her, it looks like they have the program I would like to go into but the page reads as if the program is actually at my old school and there was a Co-op type of thing, but that’s no longer the case. I remember later that Jen had said something about it so I need to talk to her about it.
I wish they had graduate school housing on my old school. But then I would be subject to having a roommate and that I just can’t do again. It’s to much stress.
There was something else I wanted to write about but I’ve seemed to have forgotten what it was. I guess I’ll go back to reading.
