What should I do with my life?! (Poll)
I'm feeling really frustrated and stressed lately.
Mostly trying to figure out what I'm going to do when my contract is up.
Basically my options boil down to these:
Try to Extend
Pros
Living in Germany for another year
Traveling
Free housing
Don't have to buy a car
Cons
No guarantee that I'll be extended - Might not know until right before I have to leave
Anthony would have to be extended too - or I wouldn't want to stay
Working in the service industry for another year - esp. awful during the holidays
No real chance to move up
Walking to/from work in the snow and dark (2 miles!)
Go Home
Pros
Would get to spend the holidays with my family
Could probably find a (crappy) job
Would get to eat real food again!
Could save up some money and go on a trip to Australia or something
Cons
I hate Indiana
Would need to buy a car just to get to work/do anything
Would have to figure out what to do as far as where to live/work
Anthony won't live in Indiana =P
Go to Somwhere Else! (Colorado/Oregon etc.)
Pros
Would get to be with Anthony
Would live somehere cool with lots to do
Would have some stability (not have to worry about not being extended, could quit a job and not lose my residence, could start a career, etc.)
The places we're looking at moving are fairly walkable/have decent public transportation
Would be a fresh start
Cons
Would be really far away from my family/anyone I know
Would probably want a car
Would have to find a job
Would probably be really poor for a while and wouldn't be able to travel
