yay, thank you lovelies
.
i'll admit that i need to come back and read this over the next few weeks - my first thesis is due soon and i think a lot of you are well acquainted with my deadline-related breakdowns. i need to remind myself that other things have improved, and this can too.

Can I still come and be a hermit in your back yard when things are hard?  |

aw, thanks wepow
. at this moment i'm unsure whether i want to pursue becoming a T, or maybe just stay in research for a while longer... i think i've reached this good place in my life right now, and so much of it has to do with the people who are around me (my supervisor, the other academics i talk to every day etc) and i'm very tempted to stay in this coccoon and have a break from the struggling. i don't know if that's being cowardly, or if it's just giving myself permission to have some respite and enjoy life. this has been something i've been wondering about a lot lately, and i feel a bit anxious about sharing my indecision with people who want me to go one way or the other (academics who assume i'll stay in research, austin-t/friends who assume i'll become a therapist etc). i know no one is doing it to pressure me - they're being kind and saying i should choose one path because they can see i'll be good at it. but choices make me nervous! especially the part where i feel i'd be disappointing people one way or the other. gosh, i dont know. waah.
