I'm Back!

I can't say exactly how long this post will be because I have a restless puppy lying next to me... but here I go.

So I moved back in to my parents' house. That was really hard for me--not because of my parents but because of my pride. After I went away to college and wanted to try and make it on my own and I did. I lived with friends and delt with things that matter and whatever else. And here I am now, 21 years old and back at my parents' house.

My parents seem happy to have me back... well, most of the time. It has been good to be able to spend time with them, esspecially since I will be leaving them soon. Which brings me to my next topic...

The exciting thing about me moving back in is the reason I had to. I have made it official... I am moving to Spain. I am taking off school this next year and working full time as a teacher's assistant and possibly have a second job as a bartender. I'll save up all my money so that I can move to Madrid in August of '07. I'll probably get a job as a TEFL (teaching english as a foreign language) teacher and I'll go back to school at St. Louis University.

And my dog is going crazy now so I need to get going. More to come later. Keep checking -- now that I got internet hooked up, I'll be posting more regularly!

congratulations girlie!! Spain will be an amzazing adventure for you :)

moving back in with the parents is hard... I don't have a choice right now because this whole industry I'm in doesn't pay crap at first...

Hope all else is well - it's been forever!

wow, awesome!!! I'm glad things are moving along for ya!

I swear, we are leading parallel lives.

I'm outta control im so excited...Barcelona in 63 days :) :) :).

Anyway, good luck in your life back @ home, there's no shame, especially when you're planning on moving out of the country. (at least, that's what I say, to defend myself)

Yes, we do need to hang out. Luego te haré una llamada. Im terribly addicted to the World Cup, but friends are more important.
