Should I Stay or Should Go?

So after almost 3 years of taking classes parttime I’m now on the final descent towards my Masters. I’ve got to finish up classes this semester and more importantly write my thesis this summer then if all the stars line up I’ll have my Masters. This was very important to me because I felt that it filled some gaps in my education.

So whats next? My current plan is to continue my education by pursuing a PhD. I’m struggling with this decision but have already made plans to attend fulltime next fall. I figured the worst that could happen is I get there and hate it, then drop out, unable to find a job, get kicked out of my house … wait why am I doing this again?

As you can tell its still an on going struggle in my head. It boils down to what is best for my future versus what is best for my short term goals. I’m not sure I’m making the right decision, but I do know this will be the only time in my life such an opportunity will be available so I damn well better do it while I can.
