I'm camping out in front of the Travel Channel.
The nice thing about being in my dad's house is--TV! I've been alternating between the Travel Channel and HGTV which concurrently makes me want to run away all over the world, and then when I change the channel, settle down and decorate an apartment. It's not good for my indecision.
I have the sneaking suspicion that my Egypt program is a scam. It really upsets me. I googled "TEFL International Scam" which actually popped up before I put it in there--you know how Google completes your search. The scam was just as shady as the organization. I couldn't figure it out, but the truth I can see plainly is that nobody's telling the whole truth about this organization. I don't know if I went, got a TEFL certificate, and all that, if people would consider me hirable, or consider me to have real skills.
I just don't know. Truthfully I think the only thing that would be a problem would be that I wouldn't get my money's worth. I don't think it's a total scam, but I don't know. There are at least three or four websites online that have the same program listed. I don't know why there are so many websites all with different names. I mean I figure I could just go there, check it out for myself in person, but who knows. I really just want to go there. Maybe I do just need to work for a year and then have enough money to live there on my own. Pay for some Arabic lessons.
I'm enjoying Staunton and I had a lot of fun in DC. Both have been fairly relaxing, with minimal engagements. I've eaten a lot, gone to the beach, taken a lot of naps, and had fun with my girls.
In other news. Ghana flights are considerably cheaper than they were a while ago. I guess Lufthansa is doing a sale or something, because they're all Lufthansa flights. Makes me think. Sigh. I need a job. Purpose.
I think some day I want to open a store or a company that buys cool stuff abroad and then sells it to store owners of weird specialty shops. That would be cool.
