i have been gone for a while. new york and whatnot. off saving the world one un simulation at a time. but i'm back. sort of. i still don't feel like my body has caught up.

one month until i walk across that stage and move on to new phases of my life. and what are these new phases you ask? well. if i knew, i'd tell you, but i'll give you the summary of potential plans:

school
i am taking a year off. officially. maybe. i am applying to the masters in public administration program at utc, but pretty much as back up. i think this will truly be a year off school. but come fall i will be up to my neck in grad school applications, to be sure. i have no idea where i will be applying. stay tuned for that info.

employment
i am busy trying to find jobs at the moment. chattanooga is offering pretty much nothing along the lines of stuff i want to do. today i applied for an administrative clerk position at the peace corps headquarters in dc. this is exciting, although the chances are slim to none, but it would be awesome. i'm looking for something in nonprofit administration. few and far between (and not often advertised via the web).

boyfriend
part of getting the job in dc would mean moving to dc. boyfriend and i have decided that it would be miserable to spend yet another year apart, and that a year together is crucial in determining the real status and potential of this relationship. we would like to live in chattanooga (he is taking a year between his ma and phd), but as mentioned earlier - no relevant jobs.

ok, so that's the update. i'll be in cleveland until the middle of may, then to virginia, then chile for all of june and part of july, then out to yakima, and then... who knows.

i wish these decisions were easier. and who knew that trying to accomodate a second person would be quite so stress stress stressful.
