Graduation is exactly one year away for me. That is a scary thought... I'll be somewhat a grown up. WHAT AM I GOING TO DO??? I'm a very plan oriented person, and I have no plan... many options, but no plan. It's definitely an issue that causes a lot of anxiety. I have a couple of options... grad school, actually using my teaching certificate in this country, or crossing the pond and teaching in another country. So far options and 1 and 3 are the most attractive, yet least feasible. That's just how I roll, I guess. I've been intensely researching moving abroad and it seems doable. But there are so many important things holding me back: #1 is my true phobia of being alone (I HATE being alone), leaving my family (I'm the "helicopter child"), my dog and my boyfriend (long distance realtionship= doodoo)... as soon as I typed it I realized my dog was before my boyfriend... that's really funny.
I guess we will just have to wait and see what happens... On any given day if you were to ask me which option I'd choose the answer will change. I have no clue what direction I will be headed in one year. My (early) New Year's resolution... to accept what ever the future holds and to accept it gracefully and peacefully. I guess I need to praying the serentiy prayer a little more often.
