No worries, I have just lost my mind
Seriously, I think I dropped it somewhere between baking cookies and watching Dancing with the Stars – so don’t move I should probably look for it.
I am sitting here waiting to teach my final tutorial of the day and I thought “hey, I haven’t blogged in a while, I should talk about how I am losing my memory”. So I of course when I see my last post (yes I did forget!), I decided to switch to losing my mind which is probably related to my memory loss. I would like to drag out one of my common excuses for going completely nutty, like I have been staying up all night working on my methodology chapter due tomorrow (nope), or heavy teaching load (nope) or even just thinking really deep thoughts (nope – see Dancing with the Stars above).
So why am I losing my mind? And why don’t I even care anymore? I have slowly gotten used to it. Just like the choas of student life which used to freak me out when I started, seems ordinary. Chapter due tomorrow, tutorial starting in 10 minutes, scholarship ending in June – no worries. I actually only have one worry now, how big, awful, and ugly does something have to be to shake me out of my postgraduate indifference? Hopefully, I will never have to find out – but if I do at least I won’t remember it for long. Now let’s start talking about memory loss…
Well, and it’s especially interesting given your earlier post about what a worrier you are. See how adaptable we can be? And which way would you rather live anyway? You seem quite content. Call it a blessing.
You are right!
