#mylifeisgoingtogetcomplicated

Ah yes, the winds of change certainly do continue to sweep through my life.

A few short weeks ago I wasn't sure I would continue to call this place home and as close as yesterday I still wasn't exactly sure what I was doing this year. Turns out I'm going to be going back to university. Picked my courses this morning and now everything is concrete. This leaves me with one question.

Why?

Last year I discovered university wasn't for me. So why am I going back? Well a plethora of reasons really.
1) I can't afford to take a year off and then go back,
2) program I wanted to get into in another province was full,
3) program at craft college was full.
And those three things are what have led to this happenstance.

Is this a waste of time and money? Not really.

As much as I feel like I just want to be done with school and get started with life, I'm comfortable waiting this year. I think it's because I finally have direction as to what I want to do. Taking this year, doing 4 courses a semester (keeping it light), is a good idea. I'm glad I didn't have to move back home because there are a lot of good opportunities for experience in my future field here. Experience is something that I do need more of in theatre production. So I don't think of it so much as waiting as investing in my future.

Hmmmm, maybe that'll convince my parents.

Oh yes, today I am thankful for late night walks and flirting. Just for the simple reason that it's a fun way to get to know someone and it's refreshing (especially in a warm wind). Also, could lead to more hashtags similar to the one in the title. Will I be thankful for that? Who knows.

Finally, got Twitter today. Why? Just for kicks.
