For those I haven't talked to or e-mailed in a while, I'm about to graduate from college. On the 17th, to be exact. I'm not sure what I'm going to do after that. In the long run, I'd like to be a translator. But the Spanish-English language pair is much too competitive, so I need to learn Japanese. (Yeah, yeah, I know it does not immediately follow that I need to translate from Japanese to English, as though the only languages in the world are English, Spanish, and Japanese. But they need native English speakers. And I would like it.) That could take a little while. So in the meantime... well, maybe I'll be a maid for my mom for a month, and then work for my brother as his "programing flunky." It would pay well. On the other hand, it's not a "real" job. Which would make it more pleasant, in some respects. It'd be much more flexible, thus making it easier to learn Japanese. We'll see. I should probably at least apply to some real jobs, and then decide.
