The Lonely Planet Bluelist 2006 (Lonely Planet's Blue List)

What's that secret dream job you've always believed you'd be good at, but never gone for? 
Submitted by wedgeh.

1. Teaching english overseas.- i feel i somehow need to improve on "english" skills first.. im terrible at grammar
2. High school councellor - listening and giving people ideas has always been big for me.. and hey i might
actually be good at using REAL empathy. not the fake work. "i could def understand how frustrating that is (that your a moron)"
3. Career councellor- I like finding careers that might interest people, that they had potentially never considered.
4. Mom- i would be terrified that i would lose my patience and freak out at my child when being responsbile for potentially the next 24 odd years for this "being" that i would influence more than anything in the world. Like what if i was like britney and dropped my kid on its head?? how could you forgive yourself ?? that and im sure that my future kid(s) teenage hood is going to be 10X worse than mine. how the HECK? could i cope?

If money were no object, which five luxury items would you rush right out and buy?

feel free to read the good or the bad depending on your mood... its kinda a huge rant post.... :)

BAD
well ive been away from being a poster.. and turned into a lurker!!
ive been off organizing the house and sorting through some thoughts and emotions...
so i have come back from my "hermit" time...
i didn't even talk to my parents.. tho im pissed off at my dad and not talking to them b.c of that..
so much so that my aunt phoned me today, im assuming to tell me to talk to my parents.

i did call my mom and she was pissed off at me, well more so worried.. the last time we talked i was
going through a rough spot of what should i put up with/ what the fuck am i doing/ where is this relationship (bf) heading for??

Work still hasn't given lover the same shedule as me which virtually had us on the verge of breakup because of bitterness of me wanting more attention/ time and him being frustrated at me all the time because i was always tired when he came home and just wanted to go to bed... wheras he was totally satisfied to play wii all night into the wee hours and maybe come to bed at like 4am... so i was choked and we had talked about it and nothing happened.. and not to mention that i was the person keeping every thing clean and done wheras he now was NOT going to school working LESS and doing nothing... but i chose the phone call to complain about it which made him not even wanting to talk to me ...... so yes ive been stressed out........ not to mention work stuff and stupid crap...!! grrrr

so Lover finally  made more space for my stuff at the apartment within the shelves he has and had full.... which annoyed me because i guess i felt like i was sacrificing things that were semi important to me ie/ where i was living before to move in with him.... and getting rid of my boxes and keeping stuff tidy wheras he expected me to somehow fill in the spaces in the house with my stuff which was contantly in the way or what have you... and all the while rejecting any storage ideas i was coming up with due to "uglyness" ie cheap shelving stuff from walmart.. grr it pissed me off. its like if you dont want it in boxes where the hell do you expect it to go???

but anyways i think we have that partially resolved.. and well a upcoming trip to ikea will help (hopefully)

yeah so on the good side...

GOOD
1. I signed up for the engish upgrading class i need to take eventually...
2. I thus because of #1 have a cheap buspass..
3. Commited to using my 'passport to education' that was about to expire.. yay 500$ of free tuition!
4. went to the gym once ! hey its a start!
5. started using a new to-do list system which seems to be working... and lover Mr. I HATE F*ING TO DO LISTS/ PLANS is addicted try it and see if it works for you. (PS. it integrats with google startpage!!!!!)........ remember the milk
6. I returned my library books on time, lame but this is big!! and due to #5
7. Ive decided im quitting my job just a matter of time. theres no reason to be so stressed out even over making extra money which i dont necessarily need. besides i would LOVE to be able to walk to work...
8. We, Lover and I have setup a budget where we pool our money (groan if you like) to pay everything, which if we stick to what we have budgeted and lover works a 5th day we will have our 4g ish of debt paid by 4 months or less. which is good and exciting to think about.
9. I got keys so i can finally not be pissed off about leaving the house when lover is about to be home.
10. once again that lover and i sat down and talked about money and our future lols... yes even the 5 year plan...
11 Summer is going to be awesome
12 Im exicted about the 2-3 rd vacation thats going to be 9 days long or so in OREGON!! so far on the todo list.. victorias secret, hot topic, beaching til i burn, going to the casino with grandma in law/ future mother in law/ future sister in law hahah. oh and sandboarding and lots of photo-op / beautiful beaches Droooolls.
13 Applying for tuition reimbursment for the course i took last semester.. 40$ but still its nice.
14 knowing that i can actually fully quit my job and not be f*ked.
