Is that a light at the end of my tunnel?

I feel like a Senior in high school. I know that in a few weeks, this painful routine of work will be over with and I will have a full summer to myself followed by a completely new lifestyle.

I'm in the process of getting certified to teach English abroad. My plan is to quit my job in late June/early July. Details are vague after that, but I will most likely spend a week or two in NYC then a few days in Boston. Sometime in the latter half of July I will load all of my stuff into a rental car and drive it to Houston. I hope to spend at least three weeks in Texas and perhaps make it all the way through August. I'll do some road tripping to Dallas, Austin, College Station etc. to see some friends and have some fun. I might even go to L.A. so see Daniel if money permits.

During all of this I'll be searching for a good gig in Hong Kong and hopefully Andrew and I can end up at the same place. Ideal starting date is September 1.

Until then, I'm marking days off my calendar at work. The sun is shining outside, summer is around the corner and I've got a lot to look forward to.
