Emerald Persuasion

By now everyone knows about my 'lifestyle goal'. That dream I have of living on a beach on an island somewhere in the tropics. Basically I could do [almost] anything on said island and I'd be happy. But now that school is almost over, I feel the need to choose what my next step will be in order to get closer to my goal. What am I going to do?!?!?!?! GAH. I'm kind of freaking out.
