1 Year 8 Months

Funny I wrote exactly one month ago on here with an update as to how things are going in my life.

Things are pretty much the same - I'm starting my third semester on Monday, and have been managing a caseload of about 10 clients at the agency I'm working at. It's been a really neat experience, and provides some light into getting a "real job" when school is over.

I've been thinking a lot more about traveling and how it might look in a year. I know that so much can happen that it's hard to plan. I'll be done school, that's one thing that's a pretty much "for sure", but where will Jeff be? I'll finish in April, but graduation is in June... do I leave before graduation? After? Skip it? I don't think I could skip it, not after 2 years of graduate studies, I want to be with my friends!

There are a lot of things to think about... it's tiring because I want to plan and be excited for it. I guess time will tell.

The frustrating part is that I've been dreaming of Ghana - dreaming in parts in Dangme, and living daily life. I don't know why it has been so strong lately but something is pulling me back there. My heart aches for it. There's got to be a way to go about it so that everyone is happy. There just has to be.

Unless I go on my own... but, I don't really want to do that.

It's aggravating because I want to get on a plane and go!
