Another quiet afternoon

I actually enjoy quiet week day afternoons because I have time to get things done like, I don't know, send out resumes or check on the status of my USC application. About that one, it would seem that San Jose State University and I had an amicable parting of ways recently. This parting was due to the fact that my intellectual and professional interests changed. Instead of focusing on Western architecture, I wanted to focus more on Japanese. Specifically, modern Japanese. Also, I want a really useful degree. Given the fact that post-secondary education has been getting the short shrift lately I decided to look and see if there was a way I could get into architecture without having to go through a M.Arch program. As it turned out USC's Master's of Historical Preservation program was just the ticket. So I wait.

Another thing about a quiet afternoon is that I can get somethings done around the house without a child running around or grandmama whining and complaining. In the quiet afternoons I've been able to clean the house, fold and iron the laundry and prepare dinner. Mostly, I'm able to peruse the job listings for something to do. That is a bit of work since I'm not actually finding something that really grabs my attention. Most of the jobs I send resumes for are jobs that I can do until I figure out what to do about grad school. it's sort of like being in limbo, you're neither here nor there, just in between. Writing this blog gives me something to do other than mindlessly wander the malls or watch television.
