Figuring out the next phase
Dear Readers,
I've been back not quite a month yet, but almost. Many people have asked me how it feels to be back but the answer really is, It feels like I never left the States to begin with. I have been taking advantages of hot running water and am certainly relaxing, but a stress weighs on my mind and it's how I'm going to find work. I'm trying not to stress about this so I won't go into great details and build it all up in my head again.
But in short I'm not exactly sure what I want to do. I know that I would like to return to Germany to live, and a friend of mine has even invited me to stay with her and her boyfriend in Berlin while I find a place to stay and work. But part of me feels I need more time in the States before I make a move like that. I feel that I need to understand a little better what I am looking for and that I shouldn't make a decision like that under pressure, which I have been under regarding this topic.
I know that I'll want to be moving away even for the short term though. I'm interested in looking at the coasts, DC or California, I'm not picky. I just would like to have a job prospect or two in a place beforehand; I don't think moving and then looking is something I want to do.
Other than that, there isn't much to write about. I've been continuing on my French and doing household work for my parents since I'm at home and am able to give them a helping hand. A few times I've driven out to the lake and beyond, but sadly I am not able to take pictures like I usually do.
One thing I'm pleased to see is that I have no need for TV. I was tired of it before, but now I'm even more tired of it. I may not have a lot of money, but I'm glad to see that I'll be already saving some buy not worrying about getting cable or satellite.
I'll try to write more in my next post. Now that I have internet more often I'll try to get back into regular posting. I'm sorry this is short if you were wanting a longer post, but it's late and I didn't want to put a bunch of unhappy filler in about how stressed I've been looking for work.
Till next time,
Tristan
