I'm in Seattle now, for an undetermined amount of time, probably a year. Leaving Vigo was the best decision I could have made, I'm beginning to doubt I'll ever go back. It's strange how I left one cold, overcast city for another (or rather, how I get pulled to them.) But weather aside, this city feels like a good fit for me ( Read more... )

Ugh I have been so lazy today! I cannot believe I've been awake for 7 hours and all I've really managed to do is reserve a plane ticket for Christmas which I don't even think will go through since I accidentally put the wrong billing address. Fuuck ( Read more... )

20 minutes til 30 Rock starts (reruns, of course :|), so I'll make a quick update. I started working 2 weeks ago. I really like my classes and the school and everything, things are great except for the pay. I hope I have enough money to go to the US for Christmas...
