Grad school blues

The more that I think about it, the more I’m convinced that grad school isn’t for me. I’m not sure if I want to come back next semester. And frankly, I don’t even want to finish this semester.

I want to do something I’m good at, but after taking a variety of classes, I realized the only thing I’m good at is web development and crocheting food. The people at school are really amazing and talented and I don’t belong there. I’m thinking of working full-time instead, and on weekends at Michael’s so I can still get my creative fix.

Sorry I’m such a Debbie Downer in this post, but I’ve just been feeling defeated these past few days and have no one to tell.

I also miss my friends in San Francisco. I don’t click very well with people here.

I also feel like I’ve said the previous sentence when I first moved to San Francisco, but replaced San Francisco with Los Angeles.

    I have grad school blues too. I failed my last Masters exam and so I’m staying in school longer. It’s not as bad as it seems, I’m sure; but right now, we’re sad. All we can do is wait it out. Wait it out! You’ve been talking about NYC for awhile. You’ll love it soon enough.

Hi, I'm Mindy. People who meet me and then happen to stumble upon my blog are usually surprised that I have things to say because I'm quiet. Yes, I actually have thoughts. I have feelings and emotions too, believe it or not. more ↓

People who know me will say that I’m loud, too nice for my own good, and show signs of someone with a mild case of autism.

I grew up with two older brothers and no friends, which means my childhood was spent bouncing between PC, NES, and Playstation games. I consider myself a casual gamer– I never leave home without my DS. My favorite video game character will always be Quina Quen from Final Fantasy 9.

Once upon a time, I studied abroad in Paris and loved it so, so much. I think about Paris on a bi-hourly basis. I now live in San Francisco, but hope to move to New York someday.

The name of my website comes from a Teen Girl Squad episode.

I love pugs, Kinder Eggs, traveling, and shy people.

I don’t like spiders, horseradish, driving, and being shy. less ↑
