What to do?

I have been home from Austria for about two months now and have no better idea of what to do with my life than when i first got home. I have, of course, vague ideas but nothing at all solid. As soon as I get online more regularly, my job search can really get underway. Emailing and chatting with people in gmail tends to take up a huge chunk of time every time I'm on the internet and then I have no time to job hunt. That is my excuse for now.

Since I've been home I have actually been doing something, just not really looking hard for a job. My cousin Sophie from Austria came to stay with us for a month and we decided to take an ambitious one-week road trip, hitting Pennsylvania, Delaware, Philly and NYC and even camping for a night on the way back. We had a blast on the trip. I got to know Sophie a lot better. The link to my photo album of the trip is on the left if you want to see pictures. I also started taking piano lessons, which are really a continuation of what started in Austria. They have been fun.

I also spent last week visiting my grandparents in Western Kentucky and staying with Priscilla and Kurt in St. Charles, Missouri (right next to St. Louis). It was great to see them.

I am now officially tired of driving long distances and am happy to be staying in one place for a while. ... Except that we are going to my grandparents' for Labor Day weekend, but I probably won't be driving. :)

When I find a job, I'll let you know.
