Unexpected...

Hey y'all, I know I haven't been blogging much lately and I apologize for it. School is really starting to roll where I'm sensing I'll be busy soon...I do have new plans on my mind now, its been a little altered from what I was planning before I got here. I'm seriously considering the fact that I will not do my in-training/internship/co-op whatever u choose to call it in Switzerland. Once I get my CV (Curriculum Vitae) in place which is what they call resume here in Europe, I will start sending it to hotels in England and probably Scotland. Reason for this is quite simple, I don't want to get jipped by the school and make less money during the training period where I can make more finding a job on my own. Take Switzerland for example, if the school finds me a job I get paid about $2000 CHF, almost one to one Canadian, however, if I found one here on my own I will get paid $3000 - $4000 CHF, for u smart ones reading this u do the math. What if I don't get a job u may ask? well then I'll just fly my ass back to Toronto! So please do pray that I'll find a job! There's nothing wrong with Switzerland, just needing to learn French or German in 6 months that I will be able to communicate effectively seems a little hard~

Came across a friend's MSN Statement or comment or however u call it, it says 'what am I doing here in Swiss?' Funny that I actually answered my friend's question but it also got me thinking. Now, I'm thinking to myself the same question cuz I do feel kinda bummed out for the past few days over smthg. I'm not home sick, and I honestly don't think it will affect me....give it another couple weeks and we'll talk about this topic again. My reason for coming was very simple, get my degree and hopefully some experience and then start my career. As much as that will always been on my mind and I'm focused about it, something unexpected came up. Something that I totally unexpected happened. I can't really share with all u guys here on the internet since I like keeping my own little privacy, but yeah some of u guys may know wat it is already, if u dun pop me a MSN msg and we'll talk. Its god damn difficult trying to type this without leaking anything out to the public~ haha. Don't worry for the ones that care about me, skool n career is still my #1 focus and that will not change, but that thing that is f-ing with my mind is really f-ing with my mind that I get a feeling of failure. I always tell myself stealing Michael Jordan's quote is 'I don't think about failure, if I do that means I'm prepared to fail.' I'm a true believer of that, but with the way its f-ing up my mind I can't help but to think that I might actually not achieve something I set out to. I got high goals high ambitions, and I believe if there's a will there will be a way, but someone please show me the way! Nothing academic related so no worries people! I guess I should just leave it at that and not go on.
