  • One of my friends is an au pair in Amsterdam.  Another is teaching English and getting her certification in Prague.  Two just flew out to Korea for a year.  One returned from Chile. And two are doing Fullbrights in Africa and India.

    And I am working in the Admission Office at school still.

    I sat and read the au pair's blog for the first hour of work, drinking in every single syllable and internally oohing at every photo. My heart ached for Europe.  I desperately want to find my way back there and not for a measly vacation, though that certainly would satiate me temporarily. I need months, I need a temporary permanence and good thing going there. 

    I've realized my life is boring.

    Richard asks me just about every other week, "Whats new and exciting?"  This week it was nothing squared. Le sigh. I. just. want. more.

    I have never been as happy as I have been abroad. Isn't that depressing? I'm waiting for something -- someone -- to make me happy like that again and its been two very long years. Almost three now.

    How do I get to do these things?

  • I want to live like this:

    Don't you worry there my honey
    We might not have any money
    But we've got our love to pay the bills

    Maybe I think you're cute and funny
    Maybe I wanna do want bunnies do with you if you know what I mean

    Oh lets get rich and buy our parents homes in the south of France
    Lets get rich and give everybody nice sweaters and teach them how to dance
    Lets get rich and build a house on a mountain making everybody look like ants
    From way up there, you and I, you and I

    Well you might be a bit confused
    And you might be a little bit bruised
    But baby how we spoon like no one else
    So I will help you read those books
    If you will soothe my worried looks
    And we will put the lonesome on the shelf

    Lets get rich and buy our parents homes in the south of France
    Lets get rich and give everybody nice sweaters and teach them how to dance
    Lets get rich and build a house on a mountain making everybody look like ants
    From way up there, you and I, you and I

    Lets get rich and buy our parents homes in the south of France
    Lets get rich and give everybody nice sweaters and teach them how to dance
    Lets get rich and build a house on a mountain making everybody look like ants
    From way up there, you and I, you and I

  • Quarter life crisis.

       & Im not even 25 yet.

    Nothing about work (life) excites me. I feel trapped, often.  I get inspired, and its fleeting. I need change, some variety.  Something to knock my socks off and rattle the mundane.

    I'm barely looking forward to my trip at the end of the month because I guarantee I will have a blast, fall in love and miss it every day there after. Life with those girls is not real life...we always leave each other to do our cross country things. We meet once or twice a year, and pretend for a few days, we are still living together next to the Prague Castle.

    Maybe its because I went to Europe that I am not satisfied with the here and now. Or maybe its because I hate everything about my work (including now, my tuition reimbursement). 

    I'm trying to spark things up by shopping and being more fashion forward, by putting out my feelers a little for other interested parties, meeting new and exciting people, and finding more to love and live for. And its hard.

  • I just bought a pretty little pink laptop.  I wanted people to take my seriously in b-school, but I guess I'll be the brunette Elle Woods of my class.  I only got it in pink because it was the only color they had, btw.

    I got my aura read this weekend.  Money well spent. I'm very much a believer in these things and needed to hear about my chakras...a few were off balanced and while I anticipated some it was interested to hear about the others and where I was doing well.  I'm not surprised to hear my heart chakra was large and needed to be closed a little, I recently learned that about myself. My aura is Orange, with bits of red and yellow and white in the heart.
