I don’t particularly feel like sleeping at the moment, so I figured I’d write something. Hopefully this makes some sense. After writing this down I realized that I wanted to write all this out more for my benefit than for anybody else, so it might be lacking in some context.

This afternoon I went over to school to talk to my advisor for the first time since enrolling as a graphic design major. The big thing I wanted to know was how me being a part time student who’s working through the day would affect my ability to complete my new program since I can’t take most day courses.

Aparantly, the answer is that it’s going to affect things quite a bit. As in unless I can take some courses during the day, It will be totally impossible for me to even really start the core classes, let alone finish my degree. This worries me. I can be a little flexible with my hours at work, but that only works to a certain extent. Once you get right down to it, I’m working a 9 to 5 (well, 8:30 to 5) job and I’m expected to be at my desk during those hours. I was able to bend it a bit while I was working on my Computer Science degree because, I suspect, that directly relates to my job. This time the relationship is more fuzzy so I’m not sure if it’ll fly. I don’t think recently I’ve done much to hide the fact on here that I’m not really satisfied with my job right now, but it’s not a financially possible to do much of anything about it at this point in time.

So I dunno what’s going to happen. After years of just floating through life, I finally find something that I’m actually excited about and now I’m not sure if I’m in a position where I’m able to go after it. My options are extremely limited at the moment. Don’t get me wrong…if there’s a way that I can make this work somehow I’m going to go after it and try to get it done. I’m tired of just settling on what’s easy even though it’s not what I really want. But I’m afraid that’s what’s going to happen anyway.

I’ll figure something out. I hope.
