The Confusion Stage

So now that camp is over, I have to admit I am feeling like things are a bit surreal.

Camp was definitely its own enclosed world. It felt long and short at the same time. Although we definitely got on each others nerves at times, we had some great times as well.

Now i'm on to that scary part where I need a job and other grown up people stuff like a place to live etc.

Thankgoodness i met a nice host mom in Nurnberg (not even MY host mom actually, but she always lets people stay over so we spent a lot of weekend nights camping out there) who told me i should stay until i find a place/job which is a LIFE SAVER--since Oktoberfest has filled up all the hostels in Munich--not sure where i would go.

Currently I'm looking for a job in some sort of international/bilingual school, a job teaching english, a restaurant/bartending job, or if I really can't find anything else, an oper job.

I've had some interviews but nothing has really been that promising yet. Ideally i'd like to live in Munich, but since I'm staying 2 hours away from it, I'm having the timeing problem of needing to get a job and a place almost simultaneously. Today i'm going to Nurnberg with Bruna, they are having some fest or something, but she is also going to be my moral support while I try to apply to some bars/restaurants in Nurnberg. I'd prefer Munich because it is a more interesting city (although Nurnberg is cool too) and just because i haven't spent as much time there--its more new and exciting. But its easier in Nurnberg because i have a place to stay until i found a new place--thus alleviating the timing issue. Plus i'll have a friend to hang out with.

To be honest, at this point it would just be nice to get some source of income, since my euro savings from camp are starting to dwindle due to beer and dirndle purchases.

I'll definitely keep you all updated on my unemployment status
