Where do I go from here?

So I am sick again... Boo-urns, but that has not shut off my happy switch, which is good! I don't know if my current illness has to do more with the prescription that I just finished (like I have no more digestive bacteria and my body is angry) or what but all I know is that it hurts a lot and anything I eat or drink is in and out of one orifice or another before I know it (eww yucky details I know!)

Stuff with le boyfriend is still complicated, but he is making a real effort so I am not going to write him off just yet!

Now with the mini-storm that has been my life lately one question keeps popping up "Where do I go from here?" I am leaving Paris in August (lil tear) this much is certain, but what am I going to do with my life? I know that I want to go back and get my Masters degree (I have a BA in Political Science) but that is a goal that I may not be able to reach without some serious experience. Now I am thinking right now that I would like to work with development (ie developing countries) and policy and I would love to get a job or an internship with an NGO or even the government next year, but I don't know how to go about doing that. I need a grown up job (for my sanity as well... I am too overqualified to be a nanny!) But where do I start? I have no idea...


Any suggestions?

I can't even find myself a new job so I am sorry, I've got nothing. But the foreign affairs thing sounds good. Would you look into that in Canada or stay in France?

Agree with Kass (I usually do). That's my problem too...there's just too much to be and do. Which choice is the right one?

DAMN YOU STARBUCKS So just when I thought that I was safe from edible temptation, Starbucks releases its Valentine's Day Cupcakes! I innocently walked into the Starbucks across the street from school and just as I walked in a guy asked me if I would like to try a sample. Before I realized what was going on I said "Sure!" I tried the sample, then I realized what it was I was eating... pure heaven in the form of chocolate. Then I realized what I should have seen all along! That guy who offered me a "sample" was actually a pusher! I have since clued in: I've been coming to Starbucks daily since I started school. These cheery people who happily serve me my grande non-fat no water Tazo chai every morning are actually just a bunch of disguised pushers who know that I have lost control of my addiction and am now searching for a new high! They've got me, in the form of chocolate and red velvet cupcakes..... Don't be fooled by their charming demeano...

OOPS! Tagged! :P

So Kass tagged me a while ago and I kinda forgot to do it! So here goes. I am not going to lie, I had to cheat a bit because the idea is to go into your pictures folder and choose the fourth pic from the fourth folder, but that pic had someone else in it and I didn't feel right putting someone else's pic on my blog without asking them, so I went into Facebook and took my fourth pic from my fourth album there. The next part of the tag says to explain the pic. Well this is the first pic I took of my engagement ring after I got it. It was so shiny. Sighhhhhhh. So that's my beauuutttiiiiiffffuuulll ring and I still love love love it! So for this challenge I tag Vegas Princess Delicieux Courtney Kim-d Looking forward to seeing all your pics! :)

Just so ya know

I have been feeling very low lately, so low in fact that I have had trouble doing anything. I can't even write about it. Part of it is because I feel so guilty for feeling this way, especially at this time of year when we are reminded of just how lucky we are. I have been reading all the blogs that I normally do but haven't been able to comment for one reason or another and I am sorry. I am fine and I will be back at it soon enough, but I just thought you all might want to know. Talk to y'all soon! :)
