Getting Ahead of Myself

Yesterday I spent a great deal of time thinking and talking about these (3) things. 

1. Becoming an International Teacher

a. how? what kind of degree do I need?

b. where? where would I live? Bolivia? Egypt? Laos? Germany?

c. when? how long would it take me to get a degree, and get recruited?

2. Adopting a Chinese Orphan

a. I need to start now saving up $20,000, + the long wait, and paperwork (lots of it)

b. and get a house and a good job, and perhaps a partner who wants to do it with me.

3. Going to Graduate School 

a. another round of applications, retake the GREs, letters of recommendation, transcripts, etc... 

b. where? 

c. when?

d. how financially? 

then, I felt overwhelmed and stopped googling information, and just shut my brain off, and said out loud, 

"I am not ready for any of those things." 

all I want to do right now is get over my cold, go eat dinner, pack my bags for Thailand, and get a good night's sleep. 

that's enough for now. 

let the big goals wait.
