At a crossroads. What's next??

January and February and all the excitement those months brought were probably my happiest times of the adventure so far. Mum's visit, Philippines, Malaysia, Singapore and Indonesia! Wow! But after all those things that I had been looking forward to for so long were done and dusted, I came back to earth with a very big bump!

The month of March has been pretty horrific. Not only are all those exciting times over, I am now faced with the fast approaching dilemma of, 'what next?' The more I think about it, the more I don't know the answer. And the more I don't know the answer, the more I freak out! It's one big cycle of uncertainty and confusion. It's a big mess.

In the meantime, with the beginning of the new semester, it became very clear, very quickly, that it was the beginning of the end of my time at this school. I've had lots of great times at this school and have generally enjoyed the job until now but it's time to move on from this. The job in general is extremely repetitive and at times very boring and it loses its draw quite quickly. I also no longer want to be part of a school where my opinions are not valued and where I do not feel part of the school. August will be the right time to leave and begin whatever comes after.

So at least I have that clear in my mind. But from August onwards is a big black hole. Do I want to stay in Korea but get another job? Do I want to go home after a bit of travelling? Or do I want to go and set up camp somewhere else? Those are my options but which one do you chose when none of them are screaming out to you??

HELP!!! Any advice would be greatly appreciated...
