So I was thinking.. I missed the chance because I only found out about it yesterday and that was the last day and it was a bit too short notice for me(although I'm working on being more impulsive and spur of the moment kinda gal), but back to the point.. At this very moment I feel like the best thing I could do is to go work in a bar or restaurant in Gran Canaria. How amazing would that be?
Weather would be nice most of the year. I'd be able to learn Spanish, at least I should be. Have this laid back job and just enjoy what the island has to offer.

Background: Yesterday as I was having a terrible morning I decided to see what the world has to offer according to mol.fi and they were looking for restaurant and bar workers for 2 different places in Playa Del Ingles. It was just for a 1-3 months but how interesting does that sound?
So I'm thinking, and this is easy now when I know it's not happening now, that next time such opportunity comes I'll apply even though I have very limited restaurant experience.

The sum of many things this is, but one of them being my current job. Although I don't know about the future, all I know is that this is not what I want to be doing. Not really.

hmm

Just went on a cruise with myself this saturday. Seriously I was there alone and I had a good time. Who would have thought? The morning boat was the best idea, because in case there's someone you want to get away from you don't have to spend the entire next day trying to avoid them. You get off the boat so early. And since everyone else started drinking before 9 am, the whole day was there for consuming alcohol. I should definitely do that again, soon.
I think I have to make some serious changes in my life. Even Seija Muurinen's quotes each week seem to tell me so :) www.seijamuurinen.fi
I need a longer break from my current life.
And I wish I could see if what I feel is for real and not just in my head. Not saying more about that. It's a secret ;)
This year has treated me good so far. I hope it lasts.
The only way to get through a boring work week is when there's something to look forward to at the end of it. This week is still good, (could be better too!) but next week worries me. What can I do then?
The last thing I want to do is stay at home all weekend.
I've done that for 8 years. That's more than enough.

Fun FUN FUN!!

So I had the best weekend of my life. Or maybe the best 5 days.
Who would have thought that a snow storm in the New York area would be a good thing for me? But it was. Sheena got stuck in Newark and was unable to go to Dublin or Glasgow where she was going at first. Then she got a plane to Stockholm and came to stay with me for 5 days. This meant I had a chance to meet a relative from the States for the first time ever and also I had someone fun to hangout with to go out with. That's just what we did. First we celebrated new years and my friends place followed by karaoke. Stayed up until 5am. Not our choice actually but anyway. Then the next night was this awesome afro-caribbean party where I had tried to find someone to go with for almost 2 weeks and then suddenly I had 2. So the 3 of us went there, partied like never before. I loved it coz I got to dance for 4-5 hours and then of course it did great for my self esteem. I was surprisingly popular. The whole night was nothing but great music. It was so great. We stayed until the end and got home around 5 am. That was the second night in a row! At least now I know I've not gotten old. It wasn't even hard for me. I'm still young and I'm apparently reasonably hot too ;)
I really need to go out more. It does me good
