Check This Out

If you are anything like me, you probably love writing as much as you love reading. If so, then you should check out A State of Writing. So far, the posts have been rather erratic and the latest post was on September 19, but it has potential. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that its creator will start updating it more often. It's so hard to find interesting, up-to-date blogs.

I know I have pointed you here before, but this seems to be one of the few blogs I have found that is both interesting and updated on a pretty regular basis, though only about once a week. Life in a Local Band appeals to me because it deals with an artsy subject, though from a more technical, business-like approach. My only complaint is that there is no info regarding upcoming shows on the blog, but you can also check out the band's website VistaLance. They are in the process of opening a new site that looks more professional. You can check out what they have done so far, but it won't be completely up until November.

If you are thinking about applying to grad school, AZ Schoolgirl's Psyche is pretty entertaining. I especially like her post "Discouraged..." Emmy Joy is applying to law school and this blog is all about the admissions process from a personal persepctive. I just read this blog for the first time this morning and I love it even though I'm not going straight into grad school for several reasons:

1) I'm not positive what I want to do yet. I'm leaning towards library science because I love books and I work in a library that I absolutely love. However, I have this fear of spending the rest of my life in a career that I get sick of right away so I want to be a little more sure before I drop a s#%tload of money on grad school.

2) I would love to go out of state for grad school. AZ doesn;t have any good schools for library science and I want to go to one of the best. I told my mom last night that I need to grow up more before I can move out of state (She just laughed. I've always been told that I am mature for my age, but I'm not quite sure I am ready to give up being physically close to my family).

3) I figure if I play my cards right, I will get a job with a company that pays for my schooling 100%. My mom works for a company that pays for her classes and textbooks, which comes out to about $1000 per class. Crazy, eh?
