    that's the problem, soda. i don't really know.

    i've always been one of those people that had too many opportunities, too many interests, too many skills.

    i could probably be good at a lot of things, but i don't have any particular drive or fire or passion to do one thing.

    i get really envious of people like architects, who knew what they wanted to be and made it happen.

    sometimes i think about going back to school. doing a textile design course or yoga teacher training or curatorial theory or finish that stupid linguistics phd (don't think i'll do that, though...).

    but going back to school seems kind of useless and impractical when i've spent half my life in schools and know that i can teach myself anything i want to learn...

    i dunno. i think i'm just having a bit of a mid-life crisis.

    i've been completely hamstrung for three years and now that i'm free it's like i've forgotten how to walk.

    :l
