Someone remind me what the sun looks like, again? Or what free time feels like?

Have a B.S. in ChemE, want to do more than work, studying Italian language and Rugby sport.

I'm not sure wtf is next for me, going to try and move somewhere.. like Australia or Italy, after I've saved enough money by this summer and planned this soon to be chaotic life out. But I've realized I don't want to look back and say... what if I'd done that. I know what'll happen to me if I don't make that move, I want to settle the 'what if's' in my mind and live it out.

If I'm a kitty, I'll just save money until December of this year, then quit and apply to get an M.B.A, but after that, no idea. Money will probably run out, unless they lower the cost of MBA school..

MissSilvy asked for a reminder of what the sun looks like and what free time feels like and I have done some research.
1.The sun looks like a big yellow wobbly whats-it in the sky.
2.Free time feels like those things which are next to the things which have always been there.
