My cries did not go unheard

So I realized what my problem is. I have hit the 4 month mark, and passed it and now life has gotten boring, into a routine and what's more I am lonely. So I have started telling people I work with that I am lonely and that its making me slightly crazy. I had 2 invitations today for this weekend and I plan to space them out one this weekend and one the next. I guess it comes down to the fact that if you need something, you better be ready to ask for it.

I also had nothing to look forward to as far as seeing my love was concerned, so I emailed my travel agent and I booked another ticket for spring break, April 2nd for a week. If I cannot get him here, at least I know I can go there. So now there is a countdown again, 2 months away but its a faint light at the end of a rather loooooong tunnel at least.

And who said I couldnt socialize with my students? As a matter of fact they are some of my favorite people in VT, and Phillip used to invite us over to his house all the time and we didnt think it strange. We were in high school then. So that is what I will do. I will have a few of the girls over for dinner and scrabble after the 2nd term starts.

Darina, the Romanian girl is in the same predicament as I, and we commiserated over lunch about just how hard it is getting being here alone with no significant other to distract or fill up the empty hours with. At least I have company. Misery loves company after all. Guess she is invited to dinner.

Next week I shall face a few demons, fulfill a few New Years resolutions and cook a few awesome meals. We dont teach next week, we only tutor in the mornings. YAAAAAYYYY!!!
