Decisions decisions...

Hello ladies,

My visa is pretty much up over here, I am applying for an extension but don't like my odds.

So, I pose a question to you all, where do I go next?

Be creative...

Japan. Could you work there? Plan to last a year and see how you go. You can't tell me it would be any worse than Sydney.

Japan is tough, I don't have a degree and thus would have to work as an English teacher illegally. Not knowing anyone there to help get setup could make it pretty much impossible. I'd almost kill to work in IT there, but I don't think Japan is sufferring a shortage of geeks...

South America could be nuts, I don't knwo what sort of demand there is but it's a beautiful part of the world.

I'd like to do more of Europe though while I am here. And homesickness is always a problem, but I think if I come home now I'll be kicking myself in a few years when I start to think of all the shit I wanted to do elsewhere.

Well I am worried. I voiced my concerns today with my boss as he is South American, and agreed with my panicking outburst that South American birds are red fucking hot and that in all likelihood you will find yourself married within 6 months of landing at the airport.

He also agrees that they are SO hot that you will probably be tripping over things on the way out of the airport and walking into walls, and there is a real possibility that you might get cleaned up by a truck rubber-necking at South American molage.

He nodded wisely, frowning, while I hopped from one foot to the other wringing my hands anxiously. Then he had a thought:
"Is your brother able to manage women, does he have that skill?"

"No" I replied, "If anything he's actually worse than me with girls."

"In that case, your brother is fucked. You are right, those girls will have his balls within a few months and you will get invited to his wedding. Wave goodbye to his little nuts because your brother's freedom will die when his plane lands in South America."

I laughed until I realised that our sister will take you tango dancing where you will tap into a motherload of local hotness unattainable by mortal men who don't have sister's obsessed with Latin dance.

And so I bid you a fond farewell as I start saving for the airfare to come to the wedding. You didn't think she'd let you have it back home did you? Dude.
