Well, like, I read some of them, and I was just like, ick, I don't want to remember these conversations, you know what I mean? As good as they probably were for our development, for the most part our conversations are so much better now.
I think that's what I should have done, figure out what I really want first and foremost. I mean, I think I could do the State Department, it would probably be fine, but I want to have a family. I always have. I would not do well in Caryn's (my boss in Surabaya) life, that I knew when I was living in her house, and I received several warnings that it would be very hard in the Foreign Service. I enjoyed my internship. But I worry that I would not be happy in the long-term, and that too much of me is doing it because it wouldn't disappoint so many people.
That and, sometimes I think the only "thing" I know I want to do forever is write.
