Fixed my flight.

Man, that was a big ordeal. The first person I talked to with Expedia said it was fine, but the fifteen I talked to after were not okay with me making the change in flights. Every time they put me on hold it would hang up on me. Finally, tonight, my fourth night of calling, they seemed more open to helping. Actually, I only had to call twice. Both people said the change was fine, but one put me on hold and that never works out for me.

So, I am going to try and stick out my contract unless I get this Australian job. There are three teachers leaving at the end of February. Two of them are finished, and one is quitting. The two that are finished will get three paychecks in the month of February and a free flight to wherever they want to go in the world. The other teacher will only get his regular paycheck, and he will have to pay his way home. It seemed like a good idea to wait for that, especially since it will get warm soon. The heat will help everything. 

It is sad that I am already in a position to be keeping a terrible job simply because it's an income (I do enjoy the actual teaching part, I just cannot relate to the management and lack of respect for the contract). I thought I had a few years before this day came, but here it is. At least I will get to travel a bit more. I think I'll be in Japan in May and who knows where in August; probably Thailand or Malaysia. I am open to suggestions.
