I am currently in my last year of a BA in Humanities, made up of various English lit, Lang, Linguistics and creative writing modules. I want to do a masters next year but am struggling to even decide what to do. I am the sort of person that gets completely immersed in a subject rather quickly and then burns out after 6-8 months. I am pretty sure I am done with Language BUT psycholinguistics really appeals to me ( as does handwriting analysis!). I am very good at creative writing but struggle a little with inspiration and developing my ideas. I love the idea of an MA in anthropology but not sure if I could deal with it without a having studied it at degree level?
I am a qualified teaching assistant and want to do my ITT in a few years when the funding has improved and my kids are older. In the mean time, how the heck am I supposed to choose what I want to do? Taught MA? research? I do love research and then could go onto a PHD.....but would the PHD have to be in a similar area to my MA or degree? I really do struggle to stick with the same area long term.....its taken me 10 years to get my degree as I keep losing interest. Help. Please, I feel I am going around in circles.
