And now some real life...

I am sorry that this blog has gone to "All pictures, all the time!", if I even post at all. But it has been a tough year and I am currently faced with a period of uncertainty that is unnerving me quite a bit. Technically, everything is going well. I am finishing up my B. A. with Honors (you see, that is the secret I have kept: I may have "graduated", but I am not completely done yet. Huh? How does that work? Wouldn't you like to know...), things with family, friends, boyfriend are marvelous and the long-awaited beginning of summer has been splendid. Oh yeah, and then there is the World Cup in Soccer. Those of you in the US may not care much, but boy are you missing out. I am having a grand old time with it. Nothing like heading down to the "Beach Bar" by the Danube and watching a game with a bunch of friends in the hot summer evening.
Anyway, life right now is actually absolutely lovely. But that's the problem. Like I said, I am finishing up my Bachelor's (in psychology, by the way) and now I would like to do a Master's. However, I cannot do that here in Vienna for reasons I do not feel like going into and this means that I will have to leave this city that I have made my home within the next year. And worse, I do not know where to go. I could do the Austrian version of the Master's, the Magister, in another Austrian city, or I could leave Austria altogether. I am currently looking into my options, a task that makes me not just a little bit queasy every time I sit down to it.
So, you see, that is why I have either not posted at all or preferred to just stick with pictures. They are just so much more simple.
