oh navarino
so i wrote this once, and then somehow i lost that message. shit happens.
i'm again living in navarino - i finally vacated my little apartment in ellis hollow yesterday (saturday). i'll miss the place, but now i need to focus on my need to find a new place to live. i'm going to find a place in cortland - if any cortlandites are looking for a roommate, let me know. a friend of mine, giselle, may possibly move in a two bedroom place with me, but i have no idea yet.
beyond the new address, i'm also now employed - i'm going to begin working at the city clerk's office in cortland (where i have a nice office) and valu home center in cortland (where i will just be a general customer service rep/cashier/whatever is needed) on monday. i'm still looking for some other cortland employment (better paying would be nice), but this will be good for now.
i decided tonight that there are a few things i want to accomplish in order to broaden my perspectives on life. these are things i want to accomplish before the age of thirty, before really beginning a family and really beginning to focus on a career. i want to:
1) live in a nation or nations other than the united states for one year.
2) live in a major metropolitan area for six months to a year.
3) live in two regions of the united states, other than the northeast, for at least six months each
4) to visit asia, europe, africa, and south america.
5) to completely pay off all of my credit card debt.
how this will all happen in the next seven years i haven't yet figured out. working in cny for a couple of years, until i'm 25, should allow me to pay off a good deal of the debt, after that point i can move to a major city to make some money - if that city was london or seattle, that move would help me achieve two items at once. i've recently looked into teaching english in south korea for a year - if i ended up in seoul, sk in june (as might actually happen), it would allow me to earn some money and achieve both the first and second items on my list.
i don't know, there is a lot that i want to do. i often forget that things happen that change priorities. right now, however, these are some things i'd like to accomplish while i'm young, while i'm still continuing to actively formulate new ideas and thoughts about the world.
damn, 5:20 am. i need sleep.
sweet dreams folks.
