I want to get lost in a city. I want to sit in a cafe and have it start to rain, like in some movie. I want to read a book outside, maybe watch strangers walk by. Sirens aren't a big deal to me, as I live in the middle of a town. Part of me hopes that I like Europe so much that I won't come back. Lettia, you know I'll always love you. This is me being selfish and.. rebellious, I suppose. The medical system over there.. even the high gas prices and cute little cars.. I could go for it. I'd even be prepared to accept a crappy dead-end job. Maybe that's all that I'm destined for. Hell, it wouldn't be all that bad, at least I'd be putting one of my majors to use. Maybe work in a cafe, serve sandwiches and coffee.. get to know the regulars.. I love German, the language, the culture. Who knows, maybe I'll get over there and hate it. This isn't a pipe dream. It would be a shame if my education never got put to use. But at the same time, it's weird for me to have hope. I do believe that my stay in Europe will be a lifechanging experience, maybe it will make me more laid-back. I don't know, if anyone's actually reading this rambling, kudos to you.
