Last night I spent the evening with my brothers, sister-in-law, and some friends. On the way home my brother asks, "what happens if you get your visa tomorrow?" I responded that I would book a flight for Wednesday. He then tells me that I'm going to get my visa tomorrow. I doubted it only because the consulate said it would take a week to process and then it would take 2 days to get back to me. Alas, at eleven o'clock this morning FedEx pulled up and left my passport at my door. I went online and looked for flights available on Wednesday to Takamatsu, Japan. By the end of the day I had paid $922.50 for a flight and $48 for a Salt Lake Express shuttle to the SLC airport! Woot! I'm more at peace and more excited than I've been to date. Tomorrow: laundry, packing, and a stop by the bank.
I'm also getting excited for my post-Japan adventures. I know I am jumping the gun but I am excited about living in Barcelona to do the CELTA. Oh, Spanish how I love thee....let me count the ways...in my heart. It will be such a great experience and adventure to live in Spain for a year or two teaching English and traveling around Europe. What a dream! I'm sure after just a few months I will never want to come back. And if God does not have a specific desire for me to find an American boy somewhere in the U.S. then I may just stay in Europe indefinitely.
