Right now I can say the longest consecutive activity in my life has been going to school.
This year marks the beginning of 16 years.
That's 76.1% of my life spent in school, more than (barely) two thirds of my life.
As I sit at my dining room table struggling to figure out why the geography of the Middle East was conducive to the spread of Islam I start thinking about how nice a change would be...
No, I don't want to work at PH for longer than I have to, so I'll keep chugging along with my essays and tests and labs, but a change would be nice.
I'm not exactly sure what that means.
Many of my friends are getting married, and some even have kids.
Both of those sound nice, but not realistic for where I stand.
I don't have my degree so a parent approved wedding isn't an option.
A child out of wedlock would be frowned upon by most of my family, and would make getting my degree harder from what I've heard.
There's nothing that can really change unless I decide I want to take a year off from school- which I wont, because I refuse to work for minimum wage longer than absolutely necessary.
I'm not saying I have a bad life, just a monotonous life for the time being.
Ready to be done with being the student; ready to be the teacher...
