perhaps it's just hormones, but i honestly don't think i'll be satisfied with my professional life until i get a post-graduate degree. my only problem is that i don't know what to get it in.
i did my undergrad degree in english, but that was a fluke. at the start of my third year, when they sent around the letter saying that i had to declare a major, i took one look at my transcript to date, saw that i had taken a number of english classes already, and declared myself an english major. not exactly passion.
i have a great interest in psychology and sociology but where is a masters in sociology going to get me?
i've been researching MBAs and it seems to be a good choice if i want to continue in the business aspect of law or take over the paralegal program, like i've always threatened. but it's a bit dry.
i thought about doing a masters in journalism, like the Howler, but i'm not interested in being a journalist full-time.
that leaves me with the one thing i actually am passionate about - law. and the next logical step is law school. and it's the one step i really don't want to take, but i'm not quite sure why.
more soul-searching is required to determine what my motivation is in obtaining a post-graduate degree. is it like my desire to have a dog? i talk about it and dream about it all the time but it's something i won't ever do because i don't want it enough to take on the responsibility? sounds like me.
i'm hooped.
