NCAD Dilemma

Trying to make decision regarding going back to NCAD to study History of Design & Visual Culture. I'd started the course before - extremely interesting but I'm so conscious of the stress and pressure of assignments and then thesis. I've sought advice from loads of people but now just have to decide on my own for myself! Maybe starting this blog will fill the void. Give me a target for book reading/research that would interest me without putting me under pressure. After all the job prospects don't seem great. The museum tend towards people with Archaeology degrees. My primary degree is in Architecture.
