at a crossroads...

I have been contemplating my next move once my parents head home in the middle of August (since I am moving out of my place this weekend). I have come to a decision - some will like it, some won't - but most important, I am happy with the choice and think it is the responsible, 25 year old thing to do.

If I don't hear about a full time posting for September 2011 by July 22nd (last day of term), then I will return to Canada sometime in the fall (after a bit of travelling in Europe). This decision comes after deciding that I'm not happy doing supply work, nor barely being able to make a living on it. The uncertainty is stressful and I am unfulfilled waking up every morning and not knowing if I'm going to get a call.

So, my near future is still undecided, but I look forward to whatever possibility arises from it.

If I do go home to Canada in the fall, I would quickly be planning my return to England, as I have some Olympic tickets to use in 2012 :).

A few more days of work - hopefully - and then off to Ireland for 5 days. REALLY excited for it. I am taking the train from London to Holyhead (in Wales) and then the ferry across to Dublin! Should be a neat experience!

After sharing these thoughts earlier with a good friend of mine from home, she said it sounds like I'm looking for stability. Its strange - when you have stability, you don't want it, but when you don't have it, you yearn for it! Perhaps that's just me though...

Focusing on each day and trying to live it up here in the UK!

A wise, wise woman recently told me that "you can't fight destiny" - looking forward to figuring out my life!

Much love! Xo
