Might be time to go work on the Alaskan pipeline. I do have a college degree but I have given up on putting it to use any time soon. Going to enjoy this summer and then relook at where I want to live and what I want to do with my life. Might live overseas for a while or something nuts.

My sister and brother both worked overseas. My sister is currently in Scottland coaching women's lacrosse. My brother got back from an extended stay in Japan teaching english to students. If you've got a decent grasp of the language and can do a little teaching, there are a number of countries you can get year long contract positions with to teach english as a second language. Most of the people you're teaching already have a good grasp of the language, you're just brought in to sharpen their skills, make them more comfortable in conversational settings, or give them a better grasp of the language for business reasons. These companies provided you with a pretty good paycheck and a certain amount to cover housing. My I had a friend who did two contracts in China. She said the pay was pretty good and the company she worked for covered 100% of her housing costs, so the money she made was hers to do with as she wanted. I know South Korea, China, and a few South American countries are always looking for that kinda work. I'd be on that shit in a heartbeat, but I dont' have a BA/BS. Sucks, cuz I kan speel goodz and english my brains out.
