Work is good. New York City is excellent. I'm making money, slowly but surly. Life is fine for now. I'm getting ready for an exciting and adventurous few months. I don't think I have too much to say. I can't update my journal too often these days 'cause I am always working, but I will write something interesting when I actually have some news ( Read more... )

Basically everything is the same as it was last week. It is extremely cold, however, and it was not so last week to the same degree. I am not very into the lethal temperatures we're facing, but I'm trying to stay out of the cold as much as I can. But darn, now I can't wear my new open-back shoes I just bought!!

January is flying by, yikes. I'm getting closer and closer to my trip to South Africa, which is a good thing. Work is going pretty well. I like it a lot actually. I have a lot of flexibility and it's not too much stress. The money is decent, so I'm happy. What I really like is being back in the City. I get to see all my friends all the time ( Read more... )

I'm getting old...

Yeah, this Winter thus far has been pretty all over the place- warm, cold, rain, snow, sun, etc. I am still wearing sandals some days, and yet on other days I'm wearing down jackets and freezing my buns off. I guess we've managed to dig our own grave with global warming and stuff, and now we have to lie in it. I begin working in 2 days and I'm ( Read more... )

Nothing really new or exciting to write about. New Year's was fun. I got to hang out with some good friends, so that was nice. Now it's just back to reality- planning this year, working, and everything else. Overall I think this is going to be a good year. I am optimistic. I hope everyone else had a great New Year's Eve. I will write more ( Read more... )

So, what are yours? Do you make resolutions every new year and end up breaking them? And then tell yourself when the next new year comes along that this one is real, this one is different? Lol. I don't know about resolutions for the new year, I think they're hard to keep. It's better to constantly try to better yourself throughout the year. ( Read more... )

Hoy no quiero escribir en inglés. A veces pienso en otro idioma, como español o francés, por eso escribo en español esta noche. Me gusta escribir en este diario electrónico mucho. Pienso que es un buen ejercicio para el cerebro, porque me hace pensar en varias cosas y siempre es bueno practicar mi escritura, aunque sea informal. Qué hize hoy? ( Read more... )

My friend's parents live in Johannesburg, and i have been invited by this dear friend to accompany her there this February, and I have accepted, bought my ticket and the whole nine. I'm really excited. Wow. South Africa was one of my before-grad.-school travel goals. I am going to work for the month and a half before I go, and then of course ( Read more... )

So, I've decided that maybe I'll travel now and work later, lol. That sounds pretty good to me ; ) I just don't know if I want to accept a job and then have to quit so soon after, so when it doubt, leave the country! I'm not saying for sure one way or the other- I might very well take a full-time position somewhere, but I also might not. I ( Read more... )
