August was Great, now on to September

I basically haven't written about my three months in the states at all! As soon as I returned home, so much happened.

After a whopping one week of living in Los Angeles, I got convinced my Ashley to drive up to San Francisco, and ended up staying. I knew I couldn't live with her for long, especially considering I tended to do all sorts of things that she found "rude". Yet, I am sure we all have friends that are a bit more anal than others.

So, I got to San Francisco around the last week of June, and I was super broke. After looking for jobs, I ended up deciding to work at Starbucks! The entire time in Madagascar I rarely got sick, but my crazy shifts at the lovely coffee shop got me delirious and pretty worn out fast. I had to get out, so I knew that the option was a new career and maybe a new location too...

Well that was pretty much most of July, July was spent working at Starbucks, living in a sublet that I got lucky to find where I faced the panhandle, (photos to come soon), and actually also doing a week of sightseeing in SF with Arnolt, a lovely Belgian guy I met in LA during my short LA life.

The times of July really made me prepared to say yes to the move for the end of August. August started off with a solar eclipse, and that led me to wake up and cease the first weekend, I bailed on my last week at starbucks, mainly because I was damn ill, and ended up going to a party with Bonnie where I met a nice guy named Rob. For a girl that rarely tends to date, this was probably an epic moment..

Rob and I dated for pretty much the entire month of August, and I learned a lot about that being open means also being open to the kind nature of American men too! I guess there can be love with American men for me after all (although the past would say otherwise@). Anyway, nothing is closed off in that story, as life is still an open book.

I ended up going to the conference (www.worldwaterweek.com) in Sweden, and came back to spend time bonding with friends.

The 3rd of September, all things packed, lots of hugs and a week of bonding and staying wtih Cris, led me to Singapore. I took a flight and now I am sitting writing you this from the hotel where I am staying called Standard Hotel.

The future? It's open, THe present is nice, and the past is definitely one that makes me smile..
So it is September, and I guess my life has changed a lot since Madagascar, but it seems to be getting better and closer to my future career (knock on wood).
