panic.
I have been accepted to grad school. For something very different then design. They waved the GRE based on an interview and the praxis test scores from when I tried to be a teacher. I am proud of this.
Now how do I pay for this? Do I want to go back into debt? What if i still can’t get a job when I’m done? What if I do get a design job? What if Boom takes another job and we move away from campus? What if I suck at this too? *crushing self-doubt*

I think we owe the next generation hope. They deserve elders that will help them be less afraid, that will tell them they’ll get older, and still be dynamic human beings. They might, in fact, be happier.”
The post is partly about music criticism, but I really needed to read this today, after spending a good chunk of last night feeling like shit about entering after 30 into an artistic field where you’re expected to “make it” during your early twenties.
we are likely going live to be 120, we have lots of time to figure out who we are, what we like, and what we want to be for a while. I’d hate to be stuck with what I wanted at 23.
