Thought

It's about time I finally write something in here.

Things have been crazy to say the least, but now that I have less on my plate I feel so...empty. Today...well, technically yesterday, I the last of the documents required for my PhD. applications. I have applied to four Canadian universities. I have done everything that I can do at this point, now all that's left is waiting, and I hate it. I want more than anything to get into one of those programs (two more than the others), and I honestly have no idea what I will do if I don't.

I remember when I was younger I wanted to read every book at the library. I wanted to know everything there was to know. Now, I am aware that that would be impossible. Actually, the fact that there is so much in this world that is unknown, I believe, is exciting and exhilarating. It motivates me to try to figure out, to understand, one tiny little bit of that great unknown.

...and this is why I need to continue on and do my PhD!
