So I think most of you know, but I plan on going to grad school this fall to get a masters in folklore. That's right folklore! Yes, you can get a degree in this, and yes an actual job after you graduate! I still want to go into the non-profit arts field doing some type of community work. And folklore is a very broad, diverse, interdisciplinary field, you can do almost anything with your research. I want to study how the role of women in portrayed through the arts- mainly performance arts- and want to focus on Appalachian women in the south, and I'm also interested in Indonesian women (yay for the Ramayana!).
I hope that clears up everyones questions =)
My top choices are University of Oregon and University of North Carolina- Chapel Hill. Got an email from U of O saying I'm in last week, so waiting to hear if UNC comes through too so I can decide, but at least I know I won't be sitting around like a bum on my parents couch come the fall. Yes!!
In other news, I got my haircut this week, check it out.
