poops, giggles and huh?

It would be so easy. All I’d have to do would be to apply for a few postions or post my resume on ESL Cafe. Within a few days or a week, I’d have job offers and emails asking me for interviews. Just like that, I could hop on a plane and move back to China. I could go to almost any city I chose and have enough money to live and a little left over to save. I might choose to stay in a city I’d lived in before so that I would be in a familiar place with people I know. I might choose to teach in a high school, middle schoo, or primary school. I might decide to go to a brand new city; a city that I’d never visited before. This way, I could start a new adventure.

I could be there in a month and be dining on my favorite chinese foods and hearing the familiar sounds of the song like Chinese dialects. I could do all this. I could move back there so easily. Yet, I keep myself from posting my resume or sending it to any schools. I don’t do any of this because I am in the middle of investing for my future. I’m investing by trying to set temporary roots in new Jersey/New York. I don’t do this because if I do, I’ll be taking the easy way out and I’ll probably always be an ESL Teacher. I don’t do this because although I loved teaching, I kept wondering if I could make it in another profession. I don’t do this because…I shouldn’t, I can’t…live in the past.
I’m here now. But maybe someday again…
