"Sometimes decades pass and nothing happens; and then sometimes weeks pass and decades happen."
-Lenin
I'm in love with adventure. I've spent most of my life chasing recklessly after it, and it's led me all over the world. In the last nine months; however, adventure been conspicuously absent from my life and I'm almost grateful. Since I got back to the States my days have become somewhat monotonous and for the most part I've been glad for the respite. Adventure itself is a wonderful thing, but it can be synonymous with turmoil. It's good to have a rest from the whirlwind that the last two years have been.
I'm still enjoying my job more than I imagined I would, but in the last few weeks I've felt the familiar stir of restlessness reawakening. I need to have a goal, a purpose, something to bend my life towards. So, I have started taking steps towards getting myself in grad school in the next few years. I signed up for the GRE this week, and am researching schools and programs related to English. While on OU's website trying to learn about their Master's program, I clicked on the link to Frequently Asked Questions. Check out the answer.
