I've been on a rather self-indulgent negative kick, which is why I haven't made any public entries in a while. I think my grievances with life right now are fairly legitimate, but as is the case with most Negative Nancies, lacking a certain sense of proportion. Suffice to say, I'm getting over it.
Been waiting to hear back from the Department of State and USINDO about what country/countries I'll be living in from June onwards. I'm not expecting word from the latter until mid-April, but hoping The Man has something for me in the next couple days or so since I've applied under a hiring exemption. (It's just an internship for the Fall, nothing permanent.) There's quote a bit hinging on which way this stuff goes, although the "worst case scenario" is more a matter of hitherto unconsidered alternatives than calamitous ruin. It's nice to have that kind of security, I have to say. *hugs Boren Scholarship* On the other hand, it seems the people I meet will never stop not understanding "I'm not sure yet" when they ask what I'm going to be doing two months from now. Even though that's completely true, I'm not particularly worried about it. I have a lot of faith that things will work out in the medium-to-long run.
This has been a really interesting year so far, in terms of growing up. I wish I'd taken better notes.
