Salaams!
I haven't been on here for a little while, but i've been very busy trying to sort myself out.
Now, after lots of job-hunting, iv been offered 3 jobs all at once!!
...
2 in turkey, starting middle of next month, 1 is in Ankara (the capital) but it's only for 6 weeks, the other is in Konya which is the hometown of Rumi & is all spiritual apparently, & is for over 2 months so I would prefer that I think.

But then I just got offered a job in THAILAND for the whole summer, but it starts on May 28th so I'd have like just over a week 2 sort EVRYTHING out, inc visas & moving house back 2 my mum's to look after my stuff for the summer... Plus the contract is until the very end of September, so I owould have to come strait back 2 Uni without any time yo organise where I'm loving next year or anything, b& I won't b able to have any holiday this year.... But I get to live in a jungle....

Advicess?
Shukran!

Been in Turkey for a week now. It's really good.
Even though I'm in Ankara, the summer school is taking loads of trips, including Konya so I get best of both!

Most of the Turkish government's kids are in my school, cos its quite religious (for ultra-secular Turkey, anyway), so I feel like I'm shaping the future or something. Not really. Mainly trying to get them to stay in their seats.

Also... paintballing this week I can get my revenge on the naughtiest ones!
