"We're all neurotic, right?"

I found a list of "Aspects in my life that I don't want to lose" that I wrote a year ago. It's coincidental too because I am writing an essay on my career objectives for grad. school and I think these writings are fairly interlaced. The list is as follows,
1. my passion for photography
2. Spanish
3. oddball research in cultures
4. family communication
5. the bigger picture
6. being in motion

It was easy to write this list. But I can't seem to just plop down career objectives. I am beginning to hate those two words side by side. Career objectives. Bleh, makes me want to vomit generic spew. I thought I'd be done with test anxiety and standardized tests and papers that are submitted to judge your skills. No, they never end! *shakes fist at the gods* RAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
