Reviving...

1. Leisure, work and lessons

I'm here and I'm alive! If I tell you that I haven't been writing lately because of lack of time then you'll start laughing in my face since (as you might know) it's been exactly 2 weeks since I'm officially... unemployed. Yeah, I know sounds like it sucks but to be honest with you, I'm quite happy now. Not because of the lack of work of course, but because of all the free time I have on my hands and the millions of things I'm able to do finally! I read books, I cook, I go for walks and clean my appartment (it's spick and span now!), I learn to type quickly : ) I know it won't last for long and after some time idling, I'll end up fed up with everything and maybe a bit desperate but for now it's ok. On the other hand, the fact that I'm cherishing my free time, doesn't mean that I'm not looking for work. Just the opposite, I'm everything but inactive now : ) First of all, I'm trying to concentrate more on teaching, I keep advertising my lessons in local newspapers and on the Net as well as in all the touristm-oriented facilities like hotels, b&b's and agritourism structures. Plus, the public schools have been publishing vacancies for so called "temporary external professors & experts" (of many various subjects) who can teach some additional courses sponsored by the European Union. The courses are free of charge, both for the students and the internal professors and staff. Despite the fact that the criteria are very strict and demanding, I have decided that I'll have a go. I have nothing to lose after all! : )

2. Not the odd one out

Second of all, I'm all lost in the Twilight series... Yes, I know... pathetic &pitiful. I'm not trying to be hip or anything, it just happened. I started to read the first part about 2 weeks ago (after having seen the film last summer) and there you go, I got hooked! I'm about to start the third book now. It's not my fault, guys! Plus, to be completely honest, it's not only the books... Yeah, I was fond of the films a lot too! Don't get me wrong, I know it's no high literature or a classic movie, but it makes you read/watch on. And in my opinion the book and the film together complete each other perfectly.

3. A dog

Third, this Saturday, I'm going to drop in on two local Labrador Retriever and Golden Retriever breeders! I'm so thrilled and excited about it! It's been again two weeks since my bf and I on and off have been having a discussion involving the purchase of a dog... I've craved for it for years! And seriously, there's always a reason not to do sth... Now, I have possibility to dedicate much time to her/him, of course when I get a job, it'll be much more difficult but everything is just a matter of organisation and discipline. If we move out to another bigger appartment, we'll be hesitating since there'll be new furniture everywhere (he/she might pee, bite, destroy, etc). What about holidays? What about it?! People who have dogs do not stay at home 365 days a year, they DO travel and go for shorter/longer holidays. Waht do they do? They ask family and friends to help them. I feel so positive. I still don't know IF we are going to get one but just in case I need to ask you. Female or male? Can you help me with this? Of course in case I really were to buy it : )

Last but not least, I apologize for having neglected your blogs a little bit.. Therefore now I'm off to make it up to you! : )
