Ants...or maybe sand...in my pants



edwin, korea's next top male model

busan's haeundae beach

I've got ants in my pants. Which means....

the time has come when I must make some decisions about next year. My mind is a mumble-dumble of ideas, dreams, rational thoughts, passions and expectations. Pray for me.

Current options:
1. Sign another contract to teach in Korea. Not with my current school...perhaps different city and different school. Advantages: stability, lots of contacts in Korea, know what to expect, would be able to save money for future adventures
2. Get my TEFL teaching certificate via 4 week course in some place sweet like Costa Rica. Advantage: ability to teach anywhere in the world
3. Return home and search for a job. Advantages: trying something new...perhaps journalism related, close to family/friends
4. Find a means in which to return to Africa. Advantage: my dream
5. Become a vagabond...(I don't think I'm far off from this)

Also, Kat's parents arrived last Friday. As much as I am excited for her and her precious time with her family I can't help but feel pangs of jealousy/homesickness.

I feel like I haven't communicated with anyone from home recently. Please tell me about your lives...

Oh, and I want someone to meet me for an adventure in August when I finish my contract. Who's up for it?
