"do you understand wine?"
that question has been asked of me more times than i can count while living here, and my answer is always the same..."I understand that more than 2 glasses gets me drunk!" Ok just kidding I haven't said that. Not even once. But it's a shame I don't "understand" wine, because I'd be so much cooler if I did.
Today I'd like to talk about things I miss from the states.
-Chipotle. Man I'd kill for a big burrito
-English.
-Television (sad but true...)
-Kissing (not that I kissed much if any the last little while in the states, but...I can still miss it, can't I?)
-cumin
-chili powder that doesn't start a complete and total fire in your mouth
-water that isn't carbonated
-braggs liquid aminos
-being able to use all aspects of your personality. certain things just can't be conveyed to those who speak a minimal amount of english.
-my niece and nephew
That sums up what I feel now. Hmm on saturday I went to a ball. Most surreal experience of my life. Imagine greek wedding come to life. I can't even describe the strangeness of it all. Imagine 60 people in the bunny hop train running around a ballroom dressed in evening gowns...HELP? It's straight out of a movie. And then I ended up sick in bed for 2 days. Now I'm alive again. Things are emotionally very draining right now. My organization is still falling apart. The future of my teaching career is somewhat uncertain, but it appears that many many options will soon be available to me.
Manya got home from thailand today, and we will be going out with him tonight, so thats good news. Other than that...I'm very blah and want to be done with this drama! Tomorrow will be better, I know. It's just hard dealing with all the craziness that presents itself lately. And I feel like I'm being forced to choose sides (as far as my organization goes) and I'm not about that. I don't want to choose a side. I guess I just want to be wherever God intended me to be...hear that God? I hope he lets me know soon.
