... Life is funny
So, wanna know the most exciting thing about yesterday? I got a new pair of jeans!!! I�ve been wearing the same clothes for so long, and there�s so little variety, that anything new is exciting. Especially pants, since all I have are 1 pair of pants, 1 pair of capris, and 2 skirts. But it�s colder here than we expected, so a new pair of pants was in order. Besides, I appreciate them more now, having not had them for a month and a half. I didn�t bring jeans with me, so this is the first time I�ve worn them in that long!
We�re in Sweden now... yesterday was spent on the train, mostly. Plus a few hours stopped over in G�teborg, where we went shopping, and I got my jeans.
I'm not going to say much about it, but I've been pursuing a really great opportunity for this next year, starting in September. It would be an amazing opportunity, and something that would fulfill a dream I�ve had for at least the past two years. Things are moving along really well in terms of that whole idea, and it looks like it actually might happen, which wasn�t really something that I thought was a possibility when I started looking into it.
The thing is, I found out about another opportunity today, and it would be an amazing thing, too, but I can�t do both. This would fulfill a different dream, but it'll have to be one or the other.
I�m already semi-committed to the first one--committed at least to seeing how it turns out. At this point, I think that what I can do is just pray that the door will close for the wrong opportunity, and the door will open for the right one, and if they both open, I�ll make the right decision.
When it rains, it pours, though. We shall see. I think I can safely say, though, that life will change a lot when I get home. Of course, that's nothing I didn't already know!
