Stream of Unconsciousness: 5 months since graduation, but the learning never stops.
http://megsjourneys.blogspot.com/2008/10/5-months-since-graduation-but-learning.html
Thursday, October 16, 2008. 5 months since graduation, but the learning never stops. As a general recap of my college career:. Begin URI as a journalism major. Become afraid of the rigidity of the curriculum and gen eds being too specific, switch to English major. Realize I'm totally noncommittal. Realize there's not much I can do with an English major, add Elementary Education. Realize I only really like the little little kids, switch to Early Childhood Education. Add minor in International Development.

Stream of Unconsciousness: March 2008
http://megsjourneys.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html
Monday, March 31, 2008. For the love of all things good, somebody turn off my brain. Last time I wrote, I was concerned about how selective my critical thinking was. Now I can't turn it off. I am questioning everything. Over and over and through and through, I am tearing apart every element of my life, past present and future. It's potentially getting to unhealthy levels. Sunday, March 9, 2008. A little venting, if you will allow it. O Future, why must you be so annoyingly upon me? Why is my critical thi...

Stream of Unconsciousness: April 2010
http://megsjourneys.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 25, 2010. Control. or lack thereof. So last night we had a lovely girls night, and for a short while Maggie, Marcy, and I found ourselves laying about the living room talking about the concept of control. What we realized was that everything is all wrong. Why are we so exhausted by 40 hour work weeks on (at least fairly) regular schedules when we had all the energy in the world taking 15-18 credits a semester and working (at least) part time and writing 5 papers a week? Monday, April 5, 2010.

Monday, April 5, 2010. 5 months since graduation, but the learning never stops. Continued, 23 months after graduation. Original Post: http:/ megsjourneys.blogspot.com/2008/10/5-months-since-graduation-but-learning.html. And since subbing at sweet Early Learning Center:. Become frustrated with lack of grown opportunities and being underutilized and, in general, get bored. Halfheartedly search for other jobs in Early Childhood Ed. Accidentally find one that seems awesome and pays *relatively* well.

Stream of Unconsciousness: November 2007
http://megsjourneys.blogspot.com/2007_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, November 28, 2007. Why I need to volunteer abroad. Even though it is at least a half a year away, I know that the more I'm aware of wanting to learn before I volunteer abroad, the better chance I have of learning it. I needed to set something at least resembling goals. so here they are. I can raise all the money that I want, I can tell all the people that I want, I can do all the research that I want, but what do I really know? To live it.”. Finally. and this is one of my own selfish and p...

Erica in Malawi: April 2008
http://ericagoesmalawi.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 13, 2008. We have recently received our placements for the summer. I will be working in a rural area just outside of Blantyre, Malawi on the Malawi Freshwater Project. My project involves working directly with a local field officer on monthly project planning, implementation, and reporting. I expect that there will be a knowledge and skills exchange through which we will learn from one another. Luckily, they build boreholes and my Geology class. I'm sure to study extra hard for that exam now.

Saturday, September 20, 2008. Observation. Family. Connections. Dancing. Leaving. Thanks. Written: August 4, 2008. A Canadian Retreat Followed by a Malawian Wedding. Written: July 12, 2008. We left Senga Bay on the Tuesday (Canada Day! We had lunch at a table set up in the centre of the market area. Rice, beans, and vegetables for only 100 kwacha; probably the best 100 kwacha I have spent. At about 5pm the ceremony finished and everyone began to clear out. The only people left were the close family w...
