It's been too long. I've been busy but I have to blog about certain things for my friends to know.
To most of you that have spoken to me lately and heard me complain tirelessly about how I don't know what I want, or how I have decided and then changed my mind - I sort of know what I want now.
For now.
I am going to do conservation biology with the university that Tomoko is in (we're gonna be roomies!). I know that I said the most awesome thing to do was to take my research masters followed by a phd, but I changed my mind and decided to go with something that is less, say, ambitious. Not because I am scared or anything (to those that heard about me begging professors to take me in - yes, one of them did say yes), but because I like what I do now, but I don't think I have the passion for it nor am I doing good at it. It is frustrating to feel stupid by the end of every semester because I do try really hard. So I am going to change from medical science to conservational biology. It's different, it has a little bit of research and it will give me some experience. If I like research then I will continue to do what I thought was awesome and continue with the whole phd shindig.
It's a risk because there are less jobs but I'm doing what feels right.
So by next semester, I am going to be in Brisbane. At last, I'm doing what the rest of my friends are doing -
moving out.
Don't laugh. It is a big step for me and I feel nervous about it. At the same time, I feel like I'm so sick of studying but it will be a whole different experience doing it without my parents around so it's cool.
Can you tell that this blog is going to go up a level once I'm in Brisbane?
