on the brink of insanity. brain break.

so only 30 more days until the long awaited eurotrip and it's been all talk and no action...the amalgamation of many many many excel spreadsheets, currency converters, 2 guide books, hours of listening to jack johnson to relieve some stress, half a pack of smokes, and a couple of beers later; here's what the formerly-a-three-month-extravaganza to a now (tight) thirty-day-tour boils down to:

must see (and ONLY IF there is time):
london
amsterdam
copenhagen
berlin
prague
paris
rome
venice
cinqe terre
lisbon
madrid
barcelona

if there is time:
this list goes on forever... =(

anyways, my office is in shambles with guide books, maps, highlighters, notes, and papers strewn all over the place. you'd think i was studying for finals and not planning a backpacking trip. so, my normally anal self is twice as stressed due to the mess factor.

you're probably wondering a)whoa a new post i thought you were dead and b) why'd you shorten your trip?

a) frustration usually equals journaling, hence the rant. and in the past few months i haven't really wanted to leave a "paper trail." it summertime =) i'll tell you all about it. but you'll have to get a few beers in me first haha

b) my stratgic planning hasn't been, well...very strategic. but anysley and i have thrown in another crazy idea into the plan. we've decided that we're going to move out of the house shortly after we get back from europe (as if we don't spend enough time together as it is hehe). so by foregoing a few months gallavanting in europe, we have more time to work and save and finally say buh bye to the 'rents.

i'm a dreamer, spontaneous, have a meh whatever attitude, fly by the seat of my pants type deal. i work with what i'm dealt with, which doesn't leave very much room for disappointment. frustration, yes =) because i have to cut out a bunch of cities that i have spent countless hours researching and dreaming about. but dissapointment no, because it's still going to be the experience of a lifetime to backpack europe with my best friend! and it also leaves room opportunities for more crazy adventures to come =)

randomness

"its all about timing sometimes it just takes the right cirumstances to present themselves in order to stimulate certain thoughts and desire that you may have had..."

in regards to the previous post about khai. let's expain this. he's my absolute favorite and he just bugs me about the whole blogger thing so i decided to write one about him. as much as i hate him for shafting me that day. i still lu-lu-lu-love khai very mucho cuz i know he lu-lu-lu-loves me too! even with all of my whiney mindless beer induced venting about relationships/boys/love/sex/hoochin'/playin jokes (khai knows i play the innocent card very well...muahahahhaha a lil too well) lol everything he doesn't want to hear, but listens cuz he cares (or wants to use the dirt against me one day). blah blah blah wah wah wah lol for some reason when khai and i go drinking, tequilla and beer make a good combination =) meh, khai, my favorite!

karma. it's a bitch when what goes around comes around. meh. whatever attitude haha.

ok so does anyone need a roommate sometime between january to march? somewhere relatively nice...or wait how bout even decent? and relatively inexpensive? this starving student needs a roomie haha i love to clean! and i'm small so i don't need a lot of space =) ok ok enough thinking to far into the future and i haven't even left for europe yet. damn priorities.

to james: i love... steak. being lazy. working out. drinking beer. going to the gym. chillin out. banana pancakes. salsa dancing. rock climbing. playing football. being a manly girly girl. ;) i would kill for rugby steaks and 2 dolla beer with you!

pabs: i'm sorry about what i said TWO years ago. and no i don't know anyone else that would call me long distance from chile! miss you 4 times!
