Wow, this is weird. New look to blogger. Guess you'd have to see it from my point of view. So I finally got my lazy ass outside to do the weedpulling that landlord had asked me to do a week ago. I went out about 10pm, when it was still just barely light enough to see what I was doing. I found one weed, yanked it out, then walked around the yard looking for more. There were a small thicket of tree saplings growing around the big tree in the yard. Wondered if maybe those were actually the "weeds" landlord was talking about. I grabbed one, walked inside and asked him if that was what he was talking about.
Anyways, I got out of weedpulling pretty quick. But now I have to mow the lawn tomorrow. Oh well, that's a whole lot better than weedpulling.
Saw Terminator 3 the other night. It was pretty cool. If you liked the first two, you should like this one. Um.. wish I had a bit more to say about that, but whatever.
So I'm still sort of researching my latest career choice that I eluded to in the last post. I told many of you already, but just so you know: I'm considering teaching esl, most likely in China, possibly in Beijing. I think it'd be a really neat experience, I could save a lot of money, and I'd finally have a "real" job. The amount of money esl teachers make (from what I've heard is rather decieving; I did some math after a friend of mine told me what she makes. It doesn't seem to be a whole lot more than what I make at my job right now. However, living costs in china, especially for esl teachers are really low, so I'd be able to save lots. I'd had this opportunity suggested to me before, but had rejected it at the time because of attachments I had in Canada, and because the idea of totally uprooting myself and leaving my home just scared the crap out of me. But I've lost interest in almost everything else. Part of my problem is that I may have a fear of success, part of it may be a much deeper issue that I don't have any interest in going into here. Not that it's too personal, I'm just lazy. One major obstacle between me and this job, besides the money I need for the course and the plane ticket is not knowing what to do with all my stuff. I don't want to sell it again, I've done that more than once before. I'll figure something out, though.
So, wish me luck. Hopefully I'll have a real job sometime soon. Can't think of anything else to say.
