Goobad News

Well, I suppose I have some goobad news. It's called goobad news because it's good on the one hand, but bad on the other (I suppose it's self-explanatory). So, here goes. I'm going home for Christmas (good)! I'm not going back to school after Christmas (could be bad)! So yeah. I'm not coming back. Dad, and maybe mom, are coming to pick me up on December 12. I'm finishing off my exams here and then going home. 

I'm planning on getting a job with the school board right now. Mom is supposed to be sending me the paperwork right away. They always need clerical, so I'm going to try for that. I also might try tutoring math at the college and high school; I'm also planning on finishing off my piano. 

It's kind of crazy. I'm rather scared right now. A part of me is so relieved that I'm going home and can relax, but the other part of me thinks I've gone off my rocker. I mean, who doesn't have a university education today? You wouldn't believe how many guys I've met here who have outright said to me they would never marry a girl who didn't have a degree and career. It starts to kind of get to you after a while. 

So it's back to the parents house! At least I'll have access to a properly stocked kitchen. Mine here just doesn't quite cut it. Woo hoo for bigger food budget! I can eat more than bagels and pasta now! Till I move into my own place. Then I have to feed myself again. :P My mom is trying to convince me to take over making supper in exchange for free room and board. She's not big on cooking.
