While I am and always will be passionate about philosophy a lifestyle of reading and writing and reading and writing and reading and writing (and teaching) is not the optimal lifestyle for me.
I've decided that once my dissertation is done I'm going to go to medical school. Due to financial constraints... There is one medical school in particular that I've decided to go to and their graduate student entry criteria seems to mean that I'd be an attractive candidate (with a research history in psychiatry). If the graduate student entry criteria doesn't work out for me I have the option of doing a pre-med year where the most important entry criterion seems to be GPA which is totally fine by me.
So... Either way, I'm going to go there and study health sciences. If it doesn't work out for me I'll be a research scientist. Ha. Maybe this is just dissertation avoidance, but really... A life of reading and writing reading and writing really isn't for me. I would actually like... To help people. Or at least... To try.
