Wanderlust

Should I join the peace corps when I get home? I considered this as a possibility before I came to Korea.

Should I move to LA and pursue my dreams?

Should I get my TESOL certificate and move to Greece?

Should I stay put and work as a teacher for a couple years at my beloved McClintock High?

Should I do none of the above and live in my parents house for the rest of my youth?

Should I fix up my car and live in that for the next 10 years as I wander across the U.S. experiencing the life I've been given?

I have been given a newfound sense of self and purpose. I don't know why it came now, all of a sudden. I came to a realization on friday after the horrid OPEN CLASS here in Korea. I realized that I don't hate this country. In fact, I am enjoying myself here. I can only imagine all the stories I will have by the time I go to leave home. Every day here is a new adventure.

Today I am going to get my first haircut in Korea. That should be interesting, for sure.

I have come to the conclusion that life is way too short.

I find it frustrating that I don't know what I'm going to do next. The past year made me realize that while I want certain things, those things aren't always for me. I hated how things turned out, but sometimes you can't stop things from turning out a certain way.

I haven't thought about the one who broke my heart as often in the last few days as I usually have. Rachel would be proud of me, she always yelled at me for giving him so much of myself when he didn't deserve me in the first place. I don't know why I dedicate so much of myself to certain people or things.

I am loyal... thats for sure.

But I think its a great sign that I haven't thought about him as much. I could really use a break from him and the thoughts of him that bring me such heartache.


WOOO

Today is a good day even though I'm tired.
