Twenty Something

You know? As a teenager, I knew exactly what I wanted I just had no idea how to get there. As a twenty something (so far) I feel like I have no idea where I'm going, no idea what I really want, but I'm always going somewhere, kind of like a speeding car with  no steering wheel. I have to tell you that it's frustrating, and stressful. I don't know if it's like this for everyone. 

It's coming very close to the time where I'm going to have to make the next big decision. If I can't stay in Spain, where will I go? What will I do? Will I need to learn another language? Will it be as wonderful as Barcelona has been? Will I try to get my stamp, or will I go down the urban planning road? With every decision there is some kind of sacrifice, like being close to the family, giving up something I have, but always of course the potential to gain a lot. Starting over just isn't really that easy. There are so many uncertainties and I wish I could just know the answers. 

That's my rant about being twenty something. 

Yesterday night was the free museum night as I told you, Nuno, Nima and I went to MACBA (museum of contemporary art) and MnAC (National Art museum of Catalunya). They are 2 of the biggest museums in the city and actually by midnight I had had it and was ready for bed - so we didn't hardly see any of MnAC but they have some really nice exhibits! Some beautiful paintings of spanish landscapes. There was also a temporary exhibit of art from the 1400's- incredible that something could last 600 years and look that great! 

Today there is a little afternoon tea type thing at Nimas to celebrate his girlfriend Elena moving in and getting a job after graduating, and also for Maricela's one year in Spain anniversary. Other than that I am going to do my chores for the week and work on my thesis. I wish I was going camping though! That's something that I really miss. 

Anyhow, Jackie comes in one week - better go make a list of stuff I want her to bring me ;)
