Ah, I wish you were over here.. we'd go out all the time for coffee!
Did you manage to get away from your room-mates? Your brother must have got a job by now.
I'm not doing much right now, ironing clothes and watching the German Grand Prix.
Good news about Marat & David playing doubles. I think they could be very good together.

Ah, I wish you were over here.. we'd go out all the time for coffee! That sounds fun (minus the coffee, lol) I have friends, just not here no and no. They both left friday night so I didn't have to get away, lol. I don't think my brother has even looked for a job yet The guys they are playing are pretty good in doubles though so... well hopefully they can beat them, although i'd pefer Marat winning singles titles, not doubles

Yes Marat's singles titles are more important to himright now. Lets keep our fingers crossed for him to do well this week.
Have you thought any more about moving? Where are your friends living?

Have you thought any more about moving? Where are your friends living? mmm keepingthinking about it, but I'm not doing much about it My friends are all over the place. Of course I have a few in my hometown, but living there isn't really an option since there aren't any jobs. I one in Minnepolis, MN; New York City (no way i'll ever live there); Paris; my friend Sonya finally graduated so she moved back to Taipei, Taiwan. Have a few friends that I have no clue where they are You always lose track of people after you graduate

Yes, you have to think about employment and not just being around home. It will change when you find a good job, but it's just the waiting & searching that gets you down doesn't it Do you speak French? Could you go to Paris to work for a year?

I should be working on it, but since Cat moved to Paris (she was in Quebec, i was going to go she her this summer, but she moved before i could go see her) I haven't practiced it much. It isn't easy to find jobs in Paris so I doubt that is an viable idea

Jobs in your field or just in general? You know how people take a year-off, they travel, get jobs like bar-work, or temporary office jobs etc. Just enough to keep you while your staying in the city? It's something I could never do as I have to prepare things, and have to know where I'm going, where I'm staying etc !

i hope your feeling is right, cause damnit, it has been long enough!!! it has been a year and half since that boy won a title and I'm getting tired of waiting! lol Unfortunately Kiefer has been playing well lately so I'm pessimistic about his chances
