Well I’m sitting in my writing room, on a borrowed sofa which also finds itself temporarily in this room, two hours into my 28th birthday. When I first saw this room I had the immediate feeling that I would write my thesis in this room. I’m trying not to get too attached to that idea, considering the fact that the average humanities phd takes 4 years to complete, while only getting paid for 3.5. But at the moment, i am really grateful for my allowance which affords me a room of my own to protect me from insistent rain outside, and which nurtures my thinking and creativity.
But really all that is on my mind, after spending the evening catching up on a couple of very inspiring blogs (from a fellow independent thinker with a penchant for continental theory , a real academic and a friend), is that i want to start finding the form to communicate my thoughts in a more informal yet regular format. A blog is probably not the final form… unless i start scanning my drawing in… but it may be a start. I will take the time to respond to my readings another night…
