Well, basically, cause I need a certain income. Plus that we need more time spent together and we also need to get married. There's a bunch of stuff that needs to be in place.
Colombia, what can I say, it's a land of extremes. On the one hand it's a country going through a phase of rapid development and modernization, but on the other there's quite a lot of poverty, corruption etc. The cities I visited (particularly Cartagena and Barranquilla) are becoming very good tourist spots. Cartagena de Indias has been like that for years now, but it's an ongoing thing. For instance, some of the malls there put the malls in my own country to shame, and I can say the same about the cinemas. There are many nice restaurants, bars, nightclubs and beaches (the best beaches, however, is located on the islands just off the coast).
Colombians are the most service-minded people ever I've come across. Here, for instance, I feel vendors generally give you as little as possible whenever you buy something. Expensive, with little in return. It's the opposite there. One time I ordered a milkshake, started drinking it inside the place, and when the woman behind the counter got a glimpse of me and noticed that I had finished my milkshake, she came running after me with the thingy she made it with, and poured more in my cup, cause there was more. Another example is the buses. In my country, if you're 2 seconds late for the bus, and even though you're physically there outside of the bus, the busdriver will just shake his head (aka give you the finger) and drive away, cause you were 2 seconds late. Over there, you don't even have to stand on a bus stop. Buses chase you
Maybe these two examples are lame, but it's just two things I remember very well. There were many other times when the service-mindedness of the culture there struck me as sublime.
It was an adventure. Great climate, palm trees, hammocks, beaches, weird animals, getting wasted / partying, great food and wonderful people.
The scariest part: Traffic! Those people do not know how to drive. Never got so scared in my life.
Currently missing the most: Juan Valdez coffee
Oh, and my girl of course.

Btw, Serie-A is pretty big over there! Not as big as La Liga, but I saw close to a 100 people wearing jerseys of Serie-A teams (compared to about 5-10 wearing EPL jerseys), and I was there for an entire month, in 3 different cities. In total I saw 4 Juve fans, about 10 Inter, a couple of Napoli- and Roma fans, and the rest were Milan fans (must have been like 60-70 people I saw with that awful red and black jersey).
Nothing compares to Real Madrid, though. Barcelona, too, but Real Madrid is seriously a national pastime over there. I'm not kidding when I say that 1 in 5 people wear the famous all white strip, you see it on absolutely every street.
Very little Falcao fapping going on over there. It was all James, James, James, wherever you turned, whether in sports stores, electronic stores, ordinary grocery stores, buses, you name it.
Got to see all Juve games on TV. Serie-A is high priority on the latinamerican versions of ESPN and FOX, which is on normal cable television.

That must be frustrating. I was in a similar situation. Not to discourage you but we had to wait for 2 years for our case to be finalised. It will work out at the end.

Oh, man, I feel you. Trust me, I've been there!! Many times
I swear all the Metro drivers in Stockholm are sadists. Must be a job requirement.

So what have you been up to lately, since finishing your degree?

. I'm really looking forward to the internship, it's 32 hours per week, so I have three day weekends. Still getting scholarship and I have a small fund of money that I saved up so I don't have to work a second job. It's going to be the first time in my life that I'm not really a student - I look forward to finishing work at 17 and then just having the rest of the day off to do whatever, without feeling pressure from University deadlines and stuff like that, it's really been grinding me down the past semester.

. Danish bus drivers have a habbit of waiting with their doors open until you're two paces from the door, shutting it and driving away while they stare blankly into your eyes. In high school I had the habbit of accelerating past the bus and just jumping out a few meters in front of it. Usually got their attention, but as I grew a bit older I realized that it mightn't be safe.
I'm almost done with my masters degree, working on joining the club soon. Found an internship at the place I work for next semester and I've just generally been tightening up from the very lax first year I had after moving out - it's been a bit stressfull but probably good for me in the long run. Still in a batshit crazy relationship with all the negative and positive sides that follow from that .

. Awesome. Sure you didn't kill some of the old ones?

When I used to study history back in the day, it was difficult to come across good career opportunities. At least in my country. The fact that you've now gotten yourself that internship, I find impressive.
Ah yes, leaving work at 4 or 5pm, that's heaven
Hopefully I will get there, too, but I'm peppering my angus now for being whipped around alot and working crazy hours. At least for the next 2-3 years, that is bound to happen on a regular basis ;(
Congrats & welcome to the real world. At least you had a lot of fun while at uni.

I didn't kill any of them, but all of them except for one opened the doors so I could come in. Prompting a proud entrance.
Ah yes, internship, that's what it was! I was so busy and stressed out when you were posting about it, that I now remembered incorrectly. Amnesty International, was it?

I just took a job there in telemarketing when I moved, to pay the bills. But the organisation is tight and the people are fucking great, so I figured it zone in on that. I haven't really done anything during History to warrant a place there, but I know my general stuff about International Law and I talk bout human rights when I get drunk, which is all the qualification you need seemingly
