Fadil just got his blog started and I realized that I still have an account with Blogger. It was unsettling to read my two earlier posts and think about how much has changed in a year. I feel like pretty much the same person, but a lot of things around me have changed. Right now, I am at my desk in Bloomington, having graduated from college, without a job and wondering what I am going to do with myself. Not that free time has been a bad thing. The most prevalent questions right now are:
-What career path do I pursue in grad school. Do I do complete a public policy degree? Would this type of work be rewarding?
-How do I preserve my independence in the future, e.g. avoid the ennui of working in middle management?
-Where do I take my personal life?
I think I've gone from too little freedom in school to too much freedom. I don't know what do to with it and I wish that I could strike out in some new direction. Grad school is a return to drudgery in a way, even though I like school much better than I used to.
