Left behind

As with any decision the decision about where to teach next year has it's own positives and negatives. Reasons to go, I get to go and spend time with Brooke, go and train for the Olympics in a harsh environment, get out on my own, make more money, travel, and there is that possibility of the girl. Reasons to stay, only the possibility of the girl, moving fifteen hundred miles for a year or so, only knowing one person, moving away from family, leaving the wrestling team, saving money to buy a house, miss hanging out with David. The missing of family is implied of course.

"Don't let the women on either side sway your decision."

That being said Alaska sounds pretty good. However I must make an adult decision. I cannot go up there without a job waiting for me. A job that is at least on level with the job that I have currently. I will not go up there unless I have an apartment that is affordable and within walking distance to the school that I am teaching at. I want to save as much money as possible. If all of those things happened then yeah I probably would go, at least for a year, just to see how it worked out.

I guess the question that I have to ask myself is, "Would I go if she was not there?" Yeah, given the same set of parameters, I probably would go.

I guess I will wait and see.
