9.34pm on a regular Tuesday night and I'm watching Joe vs. the Volcano. Love the Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks combination. They're so cute together!
Anyways that wasn't the point of my post.
Since multitasking is pretty much what I do on a regular basis, of course I was surfing the web, reading blogs and whatnot. When I came to Maryanne's Living in Egypt website I was instantly transported to another place and time.
What would I give to make a life in a more exciting place? In a more exciting civillization? Perhaps this just isn't time yet, you know? There is life after settling down in one place. Who knows? I could totally have a stable job, get some experience and eventually end up living some place else.
This is a time for me to gain experience, get good at what I love doing. Then perhaps I will be able to travel more for work, possibly do trainning sessions abroad, go for conferences? That kinda thing? It feels like by settling down I'm giving up my dreams but does it have to be that way?
What's for sure though is that a change of perspective needs to take place and it'll have to be something I can live with. When you give up a dream, something else needs to take its place. I no longer see grad school as a possibility or as something I really want. Life experience is what I want, so done with school. There's only so much you can learn about human nature from books.
