I Wondered How My Underwear Ended Up In My Soup

The title for this entry came from a quote from the essay I read for my creative non fiction class today, I thought it was wonderful.

I was thinking today, well, recently.. maybe longer, about what it means that I'm a media studies major. What is media studies? More importantly why am I making that the choice for my career?

This got me to thinking (it's only noon and I've done a lot of thinking already) that I really need to do what I talked over with Matt in Georgia this weekend.

For one year after I graduate, I'm just going to find a place to sit. I am going to find a place that each day I can research, read, look at, discover, and learn about all the things that I want to.

I am going to go somewhere that people get to know me, and wait for me to come in each day. They will know how I take my coffee, and it will be ready when I get there.

I want to learn. That's pretty much all I want to do with my life. I want to spend time putting as much stuff in my brain as will fit, and then fill it more.

I want to take time to eat pomegranates, and discover which type of tea is my favorite. I want to get better at speaking French. I want to travel for a little while.

I am truly sure that I will not be ready to work after I graduate next year. I have much more to discover, before I know what I want to do with my life.

I am going to have to win the lottery. I would like to win between $10-20 thousand dollars, and then I can "make it work."

I love Tim Gunn.

Oh, the soda machine also gave me two orange juices instead of one this morning. It made my day.
