It's a Girl!!

I wish I could always live abroad!!

Living abroad wasn't so bad now that I look at it. I am ready to move on to my next adventure and next country. I told my mom that I wanted to go to Europe next, so maybe next year will find me in Europe. As for right now I am planning a trip to Hawaii in June with my little brother and sister. I am way excited since this will be my first trip to Hawaii ever (pathetic huh?! I am 26 years old and have been to Argentina and Japan, but never Hawaii. What is wrong with me?!). But for right now I am taking a little vacation off from work and everything else to let my poor bum knee recuperate (sp?)

What happened? you say? Well, about a little over a week ago I was playing indoor soccer and decided that as I was chasing the ball and trying to get around another player, I would step on the back of her foot, let myleft knee stay in place, but take the rest of my body with me. Needless to say my knee popped like 1o times to the inside and I went down hard. My sister and brother-in-law kept telling me to stop being a wimp and get up. Get up I did after popping my knee back into place. I am on crutches and have a knee brace, but do to the lack of health insurance, I have to wait until I am elligible, and then I can go see an orthopedic surgeon and maybe get an MRI. But that may not be for another week.

In the meantime, I have quit my job working for autistic kids (because they are weirdos and trying to micro manage and I got caught in the middle) and am looking into substitute teaching and grading papers for high schoolers after I get back from a week long trip to my sister's house to see my new niece (the first one) and help out with her boys.

So life as you see is never dull. Just trying to figure out where to go next with life. Maybe it will be be Survivor and the million dollars. Who knows?
