So why the hell am I still in Guelph?

Errr... no clue?

When I decided I needed to go back to school I picked here. There was no rhyme or reason to it. I could have gone to Tbay to be closer to Jay (as was demanded many times, but who the hell knows where he's going to be and what he'll be dong six months from now) I could have, gone to Brock to be close to my parents, (I even know some people at Brock!) I could have gone almost anywhere in the arts program of my choice (according to Admissions at Guelph, since my Flemming marks were excellent).

Is is because of the other students I know? I know 4? 5? U of G students. Maybe 2 of them I'm hoping on seeing on a regular basis. So probably not that. Guelph has an amazing campus that I'm pretty familiar with already. Of course after spending some time at Trent (putting the e in shitty and the grey in ugly) ANY other campus looks nice. So probably not that either.

And for that matter, why Philosophy? Can you graduate, dress up in robes and become a philosopher making 80 grand a year? Hmmm nope. Well what if you went for your masters? Err, probably not even then. So is this just some really expensive and long term way to improve your writing? Maybe, but I might not do a lot of writing while I'm at school.

Okay so you want to stay in Guelph and be close to your friends. Well yeah I don't want to ditch my friends (I'd miss the girls terribly), but I kinda know people all over. I plan on meeting new people anyways.

So why Guelph and why Philosophy? Well I like Guelph. And Philosophy. And I'm going to make it work out. Do I have to have reasons? Justifications? I suppose if I dug down deep enough I'd come up with some good, understandable stuff. But I won't. Not at the moment anyways. No one doubts that I'll do well in school and no one thinks it's a bad idea. Maybe we can just leave it at that?

After all, third time's the charm.

That's me.
