Opportunities Bring New Paranoias.

So...today i received an email to schedule a phone interview for a teaching fellowship position i applied for in india. i submitted the application in november...i followed up last week -- and lo and behold -- i have a phone interview! exciting, right? one would think... instead, the mere concept of it is producing anxiety and confusion. i was starting toa really get used to the idea of australia...the poshness of the ashram (compared to life in rural india)...getting my yoga training underway...the allure of solo travel...

now--india is suddenly back on the table in my mind...and im confused, dammit!! i know it would be a heck of an adventure...it would also be a challenge...i could head down to kerala and study ayurveda too...that would be amazing.

what is wrong with me?!?! australia will always be there. i can study yoga in india--HELLO!?!? alright...im ready for it. bring on the phone interview. it could be such a great experience. and im convincing my friend brandice to apply too...she is planning on going to nepal otherwise, and wants me to come. another wayward philosophy major, like myself.

that quotation "life is a banquet and most poor suckers are starving to death" came to my mind just now. i forget who said it--maybe garbo? it seems appropriate.
