So being in Spain has sort of been a very fun waiting period for me until I begin my life in ¨the real world¨. What I mean by that is having just graduated, for most people this is the part where I am supposed to find a real job, my own place, and maybe get some new bills (cars and such) but instead I am taking a sort of time out from my normal life to be here in Spain for the next...six months and of course what am I doing with my free time here? Thinking of what I am going to do when I get home. First of all I will have to find a job. Something I may not necessarily love but that pays well enough for me to be able to pay the bills (including my wonderful college loans (thanks Salliemae)) and maybe having a little fun on the side. Secondly, my own place, as of late I have been considering (maybe to the dismay of some of my closest friends) moving to Portland because I feel like it would be like WA and obvoiously much closer to home but not across the street...in other words I would be able to easily go home if I needed to, but it wouldn´t be an every weekend thing. I would like to invest in some real estate. I think simple and sweet, maybe a little fixer-upper with a small backyard where I could have a garden but not the kind that will take hours on end to care for, more like wild whatever goes but still somewhat controlled and also a deck that will of course be covered with lights, the big ones that are the same size as normal household bulbs. Also just for clarification when I say a ¨fixer upper¨really what I mean to say is that everything works (plumbing and such) just that the decor (lighting fixtures, wall paper, and maybe some flooring) could use some help. Thirdly and a bit more of a long term goal, I´d like to have a Toyota 4Runner, but an older one so I would also like to be more confident driving a stick shift. I think I will get a dog, but will obviously want it to be....well-behaved so I´ll need to have money and time to take it to a good school. Maybe a rottweiler or a great dane. Pick up a new instrument like the banjo or take a photography class. Then ¨al final¨ I want to have saved enough money to finally open a café lol, what was it to be called again? Sweet Brown Sugar, with Carissa and sit back and enjoy life!
The End
