i suppose their argument is that it could be included in the other post about the sentencing, but it was a pretty different topic and there were conversations happening in both posts.

dissertation research, finding full time work, and figuring out what comes next at least if i am serious about winding this shit up in the next year and a half its a bit scary - mainly because i find that i am not sure *how* to move forward so ... its already june..... i should have been drafting my research proposal and working with my advisor to move this forward i should be job-hunting (its been almost 8/10 years since i was gainfully employed in america- how does this work, again?) its my first summer since moving back that i am not going *home* its my first time really facing up to the possibility that i might not be moving *back* even though i still look up jobs back home i kind of feel stuck in baltimore... i really dont get this place at all im not sure if its moreso that i was away for so long that this feels like i have needed a re-orientation for the past two years....
i guess i could start by writing out a plan.

I'm in the same situation, but I'm sure I've been in school far longer than you
One of my main issues is that I feel almost nothing for my research topic. It's being done purely out of convenience. I'm getting depressed typing this.

extremely passionate about my research idea (although this school has done nothing but dissuade me ( its the execution of it that is... shit neither I nor my advisor really have an idea how to go about it so.... i do plan to start writing though it needs to happen
*we do need a support group*

19. "I'm actually moving forward." In response to Reply # 0
I tend to feel worn down by the everyday grind, and I forget that while I'm trudging through... I'm actually moving forward.
But lately I've been able to see myself gaining ground.
It's a lonely trek. I thought my best friend was going to travel with me, but no. And nobody can really celebrate with me because they can't see anything but what I still haven't done.
But I'm doing it.
I can visualize the day my little dog and I drive out of here on a one-way trip.

My munchkin is getting moved up to Transitional Kindergarten almost a whole year early!!! She's 4, and her birthday is in March, but June 20th is the day she's getting moved to the TK class. I am so happy!!!! She's a little ahead of her classmates. Only because mommy takes the time to work with her. We are working on adding and subtracting today, and we are working on handwriting. She knows how to write her name, Upper and lower case, but the problem is staying between the lines. Its all about repetition, so we are working on that. And, of course we are working on reading. Sight words and phonics to help her sound out the words. I love being able to be home with her and work on these things...but I can't wait to find the RIGHT job and get back to work.
Still working through Python. Still working with SQL and Excel. I'm thinking that I may even dedicate 10 months to do www.learnersguild.org, starting this fall.
ADD is a bitch. I'm up and down with it. I really need to get back to blogging about it. But right now I'm just trying to get on a schedule. Right now I'm a little all over the place and having too many squirrel moments for my taste.
