You know what? I hardly ever update this anymore, and that is sad because I can remember a time when it was nearly daily that I would be on here.
So, some things have come to pass....
First off, I've drank so much coffee today I'm positively nauseated.
Second of all, I've made some decisions:
I ended up going to grad school, and I am not really feeling it so much. For one, it's not a straight TESL Masters, but rather an M.A in English with an emphasis in TESL.
NOT exactly what I had been looking for.
I feel like I've ended up going to grad school in order to quell my family's anxieties. Now my parents are cautiously supportive about the overseas thing, but my aunt has been calling telling me I could move in with her at Little Rock and go to UALR for my masters.
It's like they are just using school as a way for me to be here. I don't want to do it anymore. I think this is my plan right now:
I am going to try and finish the grad degree by the end of this Summer. Then...I am going off to Asia. I've given up looking for guys, I've given up on Arkansas for the time being. I'm not going ot be held back by other people's fears and anxieties. I'm going for it. I was originally going to just go to Asia after this semester, but I might as well finish. It's only a few months really. But no, the rest of my family is TERRIFIED Of me going. Still, I have to live my own life.
