End of August

So it's the end of August, and school starts in just a week.

Friday I return home to the States.

Sunday I'll move in the new North Quad!

Woohoo!

FAIL

Okay, so overall, I failed at completing goals this week.

But I need to take this in stride, right?  Every week, every goal I can't complete perfectly, on time and yeah...

I don't know, the things I didn't complete weren't the most important.  And others I just don't know- since I didn't keep track of how much a spent.

I did however, complete many important tasks that were not on the list.  Which is probably better anyhow.

Oh, and a new goal: ride on a Segway.  A year, or two?
Can you rent one?

--Only spend 30Euros on food for the entire week.
     --No extraneous spending.
--Complete 20 online applications for a new job in the fall by the end of this week.

Monday:

Where I've been....

With a bit of time on my hands, I have been reminiscing lately....  and I came across an email to an old boyfriend that I wrote almost four years ago now.  Yeah, I know, why do I still have this email?

But it got me thinking of where I've been, how I've changed, and where I'm going.

Originally, I was going post the actual letter.  But the nitty gritty details are not what is truly important.  What is: the fact that I still don't know exactly what I want to do with my life.

But is that really important?  Do I have to have everything figured out?

Yes, I keep getting the question: what are you going to do with your degree?  Gees.... I don't know.

That's what I was hoping to figure out on this trip to Germany.

Well, getting fired from my internship didn't help.

So my biggest goal for this coming school year is to figure out my next step in life.  Emphasize on next step- not my whole life.

I have some ideas of what I'm going to next....  and I think it's going to be great.
