Actually has an update

So, here's the deal. I've pretty much given up on the Canadian job market at this stage. It's been 12 months and the best I've gotten is three interviews for jobs I wasn't really qualified for anyways. As you can imagine, I am annoyed and tired and just plain ready to do something else with my life.

On that note, I'm applying for a PhD. Likely to more than one university, just to be safe, and all in England. I have a general topic already and will spend the next month or so developing it into a thesis topic. It's great and new and really topical. I have already contacted Leicester and received help with a reading list, so good show!

I am absolutely terrified. Mostly what terrifies me is getting into a program but not getting funding (which I think would be worse than just be rejected because I would have gotten my hopes up). I am also insanely excited about the potential of moving back to England and having friends again! [I am massively over the mood about the fact that one of the universities is Cambridge.]

But, basically, REALLY EXCITED!!!

[And very tired as I didn't get home until midnight and was awake by 6am]
