Well, I think I've found a better outlet for my educational aspirations

I received my first exam back today in my graduate seminar, and it was a 97. After class, the instructor asked to speak to me and M., where he brought us to his office and asked us if we would be interested in writing a paper with him on emotional intelligence. Of course we were interested.

I'm starting to find that perhaps communication is the field I should have gone into in the first place. A lot of my political science questions are actually addressed through this discipline, and it is a lot more open ended than political science ever was, indicating that perhaps this is a place where someone who thinks a bit differently than everyone else might actually make an impact.

It's a lot of work though. I've been getting really bad headaches lately, which I've mentioned before. My sister thinks it might be my ole' TMJ syndrome thing showing up again, and it sort of makes sense. It's been ongoing for a few weeks now, and this evening during class it was really bad. It is really bad whenever I try to sleep for the night. I finally got a primary care physician, so as soon as I can find some time, I'm going to arrange some time to see her. I don't have a lot of free time these days, which is probably why the whole TMJ thing erupted in the first place.

Not much more going on. I don't have as much time to write as I would like. I did take some time over the weekend to play some World of Warcraft, but that's just because I needed to do something different. Living in California is great. Living in Stockton, the crime center of California, is not.

One day, I'll find a significant other. Being alone sucks.

Stumble It!
