Come to Britain!
Okay!
Actually, I'm voting for UK/Ireland too, because I haven't been to NZ yet, and I vaguely feel I should get there before you.
Um, I went to NZ in August...
Don't belong. Dangerous, like you. Can't be controlled. Can't be trusted. Everyone could just go on without me and not have to worry. People could be what they wanted to be. Could be with the people they wanted. Live simple. No secrets.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Still haven't been to Australia yet, though, so you have that up on me.

See, now that's just wrong.

Well, I *will* go. Someday. Probably. I hope so?
No, seriously, I can get a visa to work there for four months after this whole thing, so yeah. Definitely going. Probably in the next year.

Yeah, SA--the BUNAC thing works for New Zealand *anytime*, as long as you're under 30 (that's what my friend who's there is doing--though she's actually going to extend her visa for a second year!!!). The UK thing is only right after you graduate, so...do that now, while you can. Plus, I HAVE someone to visit in New Zealand. I need more UK/Ireland folk. :P

Sweet. Yeah, I've pretty much made my decision. Since that's something that's so limited in terms of when I can do it, I am going to. My dad won't be happy about it, because he said "What's working in the service industry going to do for your career?" and I told him I didn't want to be a walking resume; and if future employers asked where I was during that time, all I had to say was that I was travelling, which is just as good.
Wow. I have a plan. A plan that will actually happen for after I graduate. OMG, the void is looking less bleak!

"What's working in the service industry going to do for your career?"
Who says you have to work in the service industry? You could get a job there that's just as good as whatever you get here. Or you could temp.

My vagueish plan is to actually put together my IT resume and spam jobs with it.

there are venomous snakes in Britain/Ireland? I thought there were just...black snakes or garter snakes or something.
