"I wanna be a wine steward on a cruise ship." -Joo
Our latest next venture option is to travel and work on a cruise ship. Joo's brilliant idea. She had lunch with her friend Suzi who had a layover in LA on her way to NYC from Australia yesterday and has been seething with envy. Suzi also spent a month in Fiji before the Australia stint. She will be heading out to Tanzania to climb Mount Kilimanjaro then to London before settling down in South Korea to work.
"How does she pay for all her traveling expenses?"
"She says it's cheaper to travel than to live in NYC. So she's using her student loan to travel instead."
Suzi is studying at Columbia. She's done more traveling than most people will do in their entire life time according to Joo. Then she had the audacity to tell Joo that most of her friends are even more well traveled. So there are all these other people in Joo's mind who have traveled far more than she has now. More people living and doing what she just dreams of doing!!! Hahahahahaha!!!
"But Joo, she travels ALL BY HERSELF. Can you do that?"
"No cos I'm pathetic. She doesn't like it either but she doesn't want to wait around for other people anymore. But I can't travel by myself so you have to come with me!!!"
Hmmm... Should I? My other options so far are quite boring. There only seems to be lots of administrative assistant jobs around. Granted I get to stay in Southern California which means less transition and more time with my awesome friends here. I know that I have wanderlust just like Joo so maybe I should just do it and get it out of my system so I could finally settle down somewhere without feeling like I'm missing out.
