1070

the number of words i have written so far for my anthropology paper.  1930 to go.

every day that i am in school i feel more conflicted.  on the one hand i love this environment of learning, and i love my campus.  on the other hand i cannot see any more clearly where this is all directing me.  will i go on to graduate school?  will i leave here and get a job?

i really can't see the latter happening.  at least, not happily.

what i can see for myself is the sort of occupation college just doesn't seem to really prepare one for.  in another time i think i would have been an artisan.  doing pottery or basket-weaving.  sometimes i sort of wish it were acceptable now to just become someone's apprentice, learn their craft and take it over when they retire.

i want to create things.
