i need advice
February 15, 2004 - 7:47 pm

for $295 i can take a class and become certifited to teach english as a second language.

i could easily make that money back in the first month of teaching.

i've said many times, for various reasons, that i want to leave this country - that things are pretty fucked up here.

i've always sort of daydreamed about the good parts of being a bum - the doing what you want.. not having the amount of responsibility.. not having bills and being constrained by money. sure, there's lots of downsides to being a bum, which is why i havn't done it..

but this.. going to china and teaching english and making a living wage intrigues me.

i don't know, i'm babbling. perhaps it's all just wishful thinking on my part. perhaps it's the dawning of something i'd really enjoy doing.

this comes at an intersting time.. i'm unsure of my choice to get my mba - i'm not really enthalled by any class, except for the one overseas business development class.. and that might just be because of the teacher - a guy who has lived in singapore, brazil, hong kong and japan.

i need.. advice. i need a clear perspective.
