If you plan out what you want to do in small steps, and actually walk through those steps, I think you will find what you are looking for. Remember that French proverb I told you the other day, "Appetite comes with eating". So go out there and eat! All of this goes along with what the late Bukowski said, "Don't try. Do." Good luck. And a little insanity never hurt anyone. August brings 31, 24-hour periods of possibility.

I haven't had any dreams/nightmares about classes and I hope I never do. My thing is that my schooling was my job, so that sort of makes me unemployed now. I think I will take some time during the rest of this year and volunteer at various places in town. What I truly desire is to head to graduate school, but for what I haven't quite figured out yet and that's the first step. Maybe information science, maybe educational technology, maybe a blend of the two. August will be comprised of seeking out agencies and organizations I want to "work" with, so it may not be all that bad. Eek! I haven’t had any dreams/nightmares about classes and I hope I never do.

Still had the 9 to 5 job. Same title, same responsibilities. People wanted me to be so excited about finishing but I couldn't get over feeling very bored with the whole thing. It didn't take very long for me to get used to not having to focus on class schedules though. That surprised me. However, I did have a dream just last week that I had neglected to take a math class and that I hadn't graduated after all. That was a little frightening. Hope August isn't too bad for you.

You kinda don't know what to do with yourself now that school is over. I feel like I'm freefalling and don't know which way is up. I'm just hoping I figure it out before I go *splat* It’s weird, hu?

I must say though that last night was a very drooled filled sleep. Yet, I still feel tired. I say we push back the clock to the beginning of May, Relive the summer again, and have some more Sunrise coffee filled Sundays. :( Sleep patterns and August are both the dreading factors of my existence at the moment!
