"What are my questions now?"
I have been here before- Calm. Last time I was here was 2 years ago when I withdrew from UPenn. My good friend and fellow explorer ; Arti said to me- Enjoy the peace while it lasts.True that.
Where my mind isn't running- I am not curious now.And I wonder how to go forward from here. After a phase of frantic searching, planning , working , writing and learning- I have an admit from the Information Management program at ischool , UIUC. It is not a B school , it is not a Computer science School. It's my Information Sciences school!
Goals get over, searches end.And in the end, a search is always about finding the right questions and the words that emancipate you, just by becoming aware and able to communicate. Here is a list of question that led me to the ischool. (insert link). Which brings me to - "What are my questions now?" "What am I supposed to be asking?" I am blank about the next steps . And from time to time when I arrived at a milestone, I see that when lost or stagnant, we must continue from where we left; for reasons that we started. Even if it doesn't seem to make sense anymore or motivate us the same.It doesn't make sense anymore or motivate us because the circumstances that created the need have changed, in response to the actions we took- and if we cease to continue performing those actions, we will be back to square one.
When the excitement wears out, commitment remains.
Now that I am starting Information management Masters, a continuation would be from what brought me here , what about it makes me curious and what I am needed to learn going forward. What it is in my head that I cannot explain yet, and how do I choose courses accordingly?
Here is the backstory(Insert link).

For now, a question I am certain of is whether I will get a VISA, given the new administration and the fact that I withdrew before.
-Be Kind , Keep Ploughing , Stay Informed.
