Boo to today....

Well ok, today i did everything I needed to do...... got up at 5:30 am, got checked out and got to the train station nice and early.... oh but what happens, the one train that has ever run late that I have caught, just happens to be so late that i miss my connecting train in Bucheresti. And the fun part is that to the place I am going, only two trains leave a day, one at 11:30am and one at 8:04pm.... My train rolled in at 11:45 almost an hour late. And really no one here gives a rats ass if you miss your connecting train or not. So here I am suck in the stratigic ass hole of the world and is really hot here..... oh well I only have 4 more hours to kill... So maybe I will go find some food and lay around in the super creapy train station. Can't wait to get to bulgaria....

Sighisoara the birthplace of Vlad III ie dracula

Ok so this little sleepy town nestled in to the foothills is a pretty neat little place that truely makes you believe that you are back in the 1800's. There are farmers out plowing their fields with a mule with a hoe tied to it. People swathing fields with sythes, and horse drawn carts taking hay and other goods back home or in to town.

So I go to check in to my hostel at 9am after a very interesting train ride, and who is here but Mickey the Aussie that I met in Budapest and had dinner with!! Yes! I know someone! I took a nap and she went out so I had the afternoon to myself. So what did I do.... I went wondering through the old city and found the cemetery, of course I would. But there were alot of other very neat places around there other than that. Though the house in which Vlad III was born was very anticlimatic, it was just a plaque on the wall that had a brief history on him, but the house was not kept up so it kind of just looked like the crappy houses around it. Oh well.

So during my wonderings through old town, I ran in to Mickey and we started walking the town and just kept going in to the countryside. We climbed a big ass hill and from there we could see the whole city and a couple goats and sheep on the hill we were sitting on. We chilled there for a while watching the lighting storm that was happening away from us. Then realizing that well it is starting to get dark and the dark clouds are now starting to suround us, it would be a good idea to head back in to town and get some food. Right as we got back it started to pour and we just dodged in to the first place we saw. It was a nice place and the tables looked all fancy and the server was in slacks, tie and vest.... shit, we just ended up in the most expensive place in town. But it is pouring outside so we thought, fuck it, we will just eat here. We looked at the menu and found some interesting sounding food from the Hungarian Specialties section (I could not tell you what the name of it was). But what it ended up being what cabbage rolles filled with meat (like pigs in a blanket), and some cornmeal. It was yummy and so was the beer I had there (Romania has very good beer also :) ). After food and a beer I wasn't that excited to see the ticket, and it came to us at 36 ROM. And 3 ROM=1 USD, so our bill for the both of us to have a nice dinner and a beer was 12 dollars, or 6 dollars a person. I love Romania!!

That night I hung out with an American couple that was there and the owner who was working the night shift. I played it classy and got a 2 liter bottle of beer (oh yes they have those here) for about 4 Ron or a dollar thirty three. Yes!! Finished that, and bs with them all for a bit, then it was bed time.

The next day I used as pretty much a kill day where I did very little but lay about and go to the open market and get some apples and socks (sweet jesus i am messing my socks and shoes up here lol). Then Mickey and I went on another little hike up another large hill over looking the city. But at the top there was a restraunt, so we went around the hill and made our way up over the back where there really wasn't much for trails and no roads. Got nipped by some stinging needles, sadly they have those here also. At the top I had a beer at looked over the city. It was very nice up there!!

Then again that evening we went back to the Hostel, and there was a Scottish couple, two French Canadians, the Americans, and the the owner with his girlfriend (who works during the day). We all ate some delivered food, and did a little driking, after a while an Aussie girl was down stairs with us, with two other guys. A long story short, a couple games of sombraro pool (pictures soon), and a couple bottles of cheap wine and "sparking white wine" it was 5:30am and the sun was coming up. Wow, way to go me.

The Train ride to Brasov was one that I spent either sleeping or listening to the weird guy in front who was like 55 talk to his girlfriend who seemed to be about 20. Wow, they play by some really different rules here lol, and if I had to see them make out one more time, I was going to be in jail in Romania, because for the love of god.......

Now I am in Brasov living it up and I am finally caught up with my blogging.... damn. Ok well time to go do something productive so I have something to write about other than I spent my time in Brastov blogging ha ha ha. Well stay classy, cheers!!

Budapest part II

Ok last night I was quite tired by the time i was done and figured I needed to write something in my blog, but didn't have enough energy to finish lol. But anyways, after the day of caving, the original plan was to leave, but I decided to stay another day because I had so much fun. The next day at breakfast, I was getting everything ready and preparing myself to head over to the House of Terror and I met another ex-pat who was working out of Germany. So she tagged along with me with the intentions that she was going to the House of Terror with me, and then she was heading on her own for a walk.

The House of Terror is a building in Budapest that when the Nazis and Soviets occupied the area they used this house to hold and exicute 'political' prisoners. What is kind of a mind trip is that this place was in full function of crazy interigations, torture, and killings until the fall of communisim in 1989. That is in my life time!! It was all brought to my attention on how crazy it was, was when I was talking to Anikol (the gal at the hostel the first night), that she remebers when she was young, a black car would pull up to the house, and then who ever they took out generally was never seen again. Anikol is only two years older than I. But it was quite a troubling place, even for someone like me who loves that sort of thing, I found myself being creeped out, or maybe it is when you go to a musuem in the states about something like that, it is all recreations and even at that point most find it distrubing. I actually walked through actual cells, places they tortured people, and even the exicution room where all the stuff actually went down. Yikes.

None the less after the extremely uplifting two hours, we decieded to get some coffee and continue to chat a bit. Kristine was very nice, and we continued to chat and get dinner. We debated and chated about everything from the Nazi and Soviet influence in Eastern European culture, to the different mindsets between men and women and how she gets mad at her boyfriend for the same reasons I think every one of my ex's have been mad at me in the past (ha it isn't just me it is all men ;) ). She was even nice enough to walk me to the trainstation at 10:30 pm. When it was time for a farewell, I said, "Damn, this is my least favorite part about meeting poeple on this trip, is saying good-bye..... I really suck at them" her reply was a German phrase, but in translation it means "Everything has an end but the Wurst (ie a Sausage) has two". It made me chuckle and off I went....

So I am on the train and pass out yay!! It is a good way to start a 10 hour train journey at night, until I reach the Romanian boarder. They asked for my ticket and passport on several occasions, and then three people came in and started to ask me if I have a cough, running a fever, or in general don't feel good. Then after answering no to everything, they made me sign a peice of paper stating that I was not infected by the swine flu and have not been in contact with anyone who has had the swine flu. Wow!! Romania really doesn't want the swine flu to get here. And angry boarder guards suck when you were asleep and are suddenly awoken and yelled at, all at about 3:30am. I heart Romania!!

Budapest

Wow, what a city that is. I am soooo going back. So yeah, lets even try to start to begin with what I did there. When I got to my hostel I don't think I have ever met more friendly people in my entire life. My entry came completely with a shot of Palinka (which I am in love with now), and alot of great recommendations on things to do. So the first night I got there, I chose not to go out, but to stay in and just relax, and I got to know Anikol the gal who was working the night shift at the hostel. We played darts with a guy Mark from Canada, and another guy from Tawian until about 3 am. It was a good amount of fun.

Then the next day was time for a great three hour walking tour of the city. Our guide adam was a pretty neat guy, though hard to understand at times. We got to see alot of the city and get some great stories about the city. Here is a good little tid bit, did you know that the Teliphone as the machine was invented by Thomas Edison, but the people who helped connect two phones together were Hungarian tecnitions that Edison had brought to New York to help him. And the common greeting 'Hello' means can you hear me in Hungarian, so when they would pick up the phones to see if they worked they would say hello back and forth to see if they could hear eachother and it is something that just caught on that you say hello when you answer the phone :).

After the tour I met these two very nice gals one was from Australia (Micky) and the other from San Diego (Brit), and we went wondering around chatting through out Budapest. Then dinner and a couple drinks. They were amazing people and I was very glad to have met them!! I have found I have met some of the greatest people on this trip, and unlike back home where I will meet say 10 people and about 7 of them will be worthless and about 3 would be cool, out here 9 people are cool and only one will be annoying or useless.

Then the next day I ventured out to the natural thermal baths which are world famous. It was really nice to go and very relaxing, but I have a feeling it would have been better on a cooler day. They have pools (half of an olympic size pool) that the water is 36 C (about 97 F) so it was hot outside and hot in the pools, but man did it make my back and legs feel better after all the walking I have done :). I also got to go in a sauna that was 100C (212 F), and i am sure that is what hell feels like. I lasted about 7 mins in there before I had to leave because I thought I was going to die. But outside there, there is a pool you go in to that is 15 C (60 F), to cool off afterwards. I met a girl there who was laughing at me as a cursed because it felt soooooo cold. I now forget her name (I am a bad person I know), but she was an ex-pat (ie used to live in the states now lives overseas perminatly) and works in Switzerland and has for the past 10 years. So that was a fun chat, but sadly I had enough of it and needed to go back to the hostel.

Then on monday, it was time to do a little caving!! Wow it was sooo intense and extreme lol, well for me anyways. Mark the Canadian came with me, and it was a blast except I was almost too big width wise to go in there. And I found out why at one point when I was stuck for about 15 seconds. Most frighting 15 seconds of my life. But over all I made it out alive and it was a crazy fun experince that I am happy I got :).

Ok there is more to the stories, but it is 1 am here, I need to get some rest and I will add pictures later..... geez just so much to do that it is hard to keep it all down, but I am doing my best :). Hope everything is well back home and I wish you all well!! Cheers!

Buda buda rockin' everywhere

Wow, this city is amazing!!! There is just sooo much to do here! I am going to write a full think on it maybe tomorrow, but I am now a little upset and tired, so I think I am going to lay down. I just got an email from my hostel booking site that said that my booking had an error (I think I entered my CC info in wrong), so I can't head to Romania tomorrow..... boo to that, oh well I guess that means I can get to the House of Terror!! Holla, see you all tomorrow!!

Bratislava was quite the place....

ue
One should never go... ha ha ha. Ok maybe a day trip there would be nice to see the old town, and all the little things there. But you could sit and just look around and see the heavy communist influence all through out the city. Very creepy. It didn't help that it was very cool and rainy out the entire time, but being a person from the good ol' northwest a little rain and the cold didn't stop me from adventuring through out the city.

The one quote that kept playing in my head was from EuroTrip, when the group arrives in Bratislava and the guy comes out and says 'good thing you come in summer time, because in winter it can get kind of depressing.'

In the information packet I got said that walking through old town was like being stuck in a fairy tale. I didn't find that to be very true, I found it very easy to think that I was in the mid-evil times and the city had been under seige not too long ago. (and yes the picture to the bottom right... people lived in there). Another really funny thing that I noticed was that it was more expensive for things in Bratislava than they were in Prague, which didn't make too much sense to me.

So after a little while of wondering around, I had enough and retired to the hostel for the evening. There I met some cool people down in the bar of the hostel, Texas (some guy from texas), and Thomas from Canada. Thomas and I pretty much came to the conclusion that this town sucked, and it was time to leave as soon as possible, so him and I met up in the morning after breakfast, and caught the first train to Budapest.

Once in Budapest, we got lunch, shook hands and parted ways. That is kind of how it has been while I have been gone, you meet people and then say good-bye and the chances of ever seeing any of these people again is slim to none. It is just an interesting feeling of making instant friends, and then parting ways just as fast. Kind of sucks if you ask me, but oh well. It is nice because it is really easy to meet others, because if they are in a group of two or less, really we all have the same thing in common. We are by ourselves or with just one other person, we have no clue what is going on, and we all want other people to talk to, so you create friendships almost instantly.

So far after one day in Budapest I have been having a blast, I think I am going to go to one of the baths today for a little bit, then going to the museam of Terror!! Full update on those coming up later ;). Till then, everyone stay classy and keep rockin in the free world!

Bratislava skyline (the nicest one!)

Wein (Vienna)...... holla!!

Quick catch up of adventures thus far. Wein or Vienna as we call it was pretty cool (as long as you don't end up in the red light district on accident like I did...

So while I was there I met a great couple from England named Oly and Charly. They were very nice and were very insightful about the things to walk around and see, as well as places to eat. So in my wanderings in Wein, I came across archetecture that was just beyond anything that we have at home. Really I had sensory overload, there were so many different fasades (sp?) and statues where none of them where the same, all hand created and different (the picture to the left was in front of the Natural History Museum). Outside of the old town, the city had the feel of Prague, and when you got outside that toward my hostel it became a bussling city with designer stores and american fast food you could ever imagin.

One of the coolest monuments I got to see on my adventures though Wein was the statue of Mozart who got his start in this city. It was a very beautifully done statue with a great flower display in front of it (see right).

That evening I got back in and Charly, Oly, and I all went out for all you can eat sushi!! It was sooo good, there was a converer belt that ran right next to the table and you just sat and watched for whatever you wanted to come, then grab it, eat it, and repeat. I have yet to eat quite like that since I have been here. Actually on a side note I thought since I came here that I would be living on my budget and not eating alot, but holy god, I eaten like a king while being over here and while staying under budget! It rocks!

Then the next morning it was time to say good-bye to my new friends and head to Bratislava, the capital of Slovakia. And did you know that Wein, and Bratislava are the two closest country capitals in the world (about 40 Km apart, or for everyone back home about 25 miles). Nothing very interesting happenened on the train trip, but Bratislava was quite the place........

and a quick hello to my favorite person

And little willy don't think I have forgot you ;)...... things are great here and there are even some things that you would have a blast with!! Hope baseball is well with you ;)

A quick shot from Bratislava

Ok so I don't have a ton of time, since I have been using the computer quite a bit trying to get my trip all planned for tomorrow in booking my train tickets and hostel (since this area wasn't covered by the pass I had to pay my own train tickets and book them in advance).

Anyways, I spent two days in Vienna.... the trip there rather sucked, because I missed the train and had to wait 3 hours for the next one, so instead of getting to Vienna from Prague at 8 (which is late anyways) I got in at 11pm. To add fun on top of it all I got lost and ended up in the red light district. Let me tell you how great that feeling is..... hookers yelling at you in German and all you want to do is lay down lol.

But the city was beautiful and I will have another post most likely tomorrow with a run down of Vienna and Bratislava in it complete with a couple pictures. But it is time for me to get running so people don't get angry at me. Till then!

And now it is time to leave Prague

Well I think last night was a good way of saying good bye to this amazing city....

So the other day I was wondering around the park and stumbled upon this beer garden that had the Canada vs. Russia hockey game on. So I thought that I would grab a beer and watch some hockey. After realizing that the entire place was going for Russia and I was one of 20 people who were pumped for canada I realized I just needed to find someone to talk to. So I just started chatting it up with a group of people and met a guy Jon who helps host this pub crawl. The guy was cool as hell, anyways, so I went to the pub crawl last night to find that everyone there was from Canada, Seattle, or Denver. So it was kind of fun to kick it with people from back home even though I was so far away from my city (note the people in the picture are from seattle!). But you know after a little too much fun, all of a sudden it is two guys from Victoria, BC and myself at a club and everyone has peaced out. Ahhhh!! So we have no clue where we are, but for whatever reason we are adimate about walking and that we can get back to the museum where I would know how to get home from there. There is no worst feeling when you have been walking for about 30 mins and realize you are looking at the wrong side of the castle which is a couple miles away... but after about an hour and a half of pure fun walking in the rain, I made it home safe and sound!

So now it is time to take myself to the trainstation and hit Vienna. It should be great fun!! I will hit you all when I get there. Oh and by the way this picture is of me lost in Prague... can you feel the fear ;). Cheers!!

Did you say chicken pizza or Czechen pizza.......

I love spending time with people who's first language isn't english and getting to explain slang, and correct ways to say things. One of the highlights of the trip so far was when Eva really wanted to try Czech Pizza and kept saying 'lets get some czechen pizza' which sounds alot like chicken, so when we got to a pizzaria, we were very confused when she didn't order chicken on hers........ lol. Or explaining that fish is singular and plural and not fishes.

Yesterday, we went to a village called Kunta Hora. It was very nice and peaceful there, and everything that one would think that foriegn countryside would be. Also, there is the Sedlec Oddisary, which is a small chapel for the dead. How it all shook down is that there was some dirt brought there by a priest from Isrial that was blessed and so every one in the area wanted to be buired there. Right around that time the black plague struck the area, so there was an over flow of bodies to this one small graveyard, so they just started stacking bodies in the basement of the chapel and eventually there was an impressive stack of bones. So I guess a monk thought what the hell, we will decorate this place with these poor saps their bones are all just down here. It is believed that there are the remains of 40,000 people down there.

It was really creepy walking on to the property, because once you crossed the gate you felt the air get noticably cooler, and there are headstones all around the place (very large and beautiful ones at that). Then you go downstairs of this place and there are four pyrimids of bones on the corners of the rooms that are about 10 to 12 feet high, just incredible. And there are bones all along the walls and light fixtures.

After we left there, we went to the Virgin of Mary baroque style chuch and holy shit...... that place was huge. It actually seemed quite out of place for the surrounding area. The inside was beautiful with an amazing mural painted up on the celling. Breath taking really is the only words I can use to describe it.

Well Jas and Eva left this morning so now it is back on my own again!! And I have decieded to stay in Prague another 2 days, then I think I am going to head to Vienna, Austria then Bratislava, Slovakia. But it is hard to leave when beer is only an american dollar (about 20 Kc), for a half liter of some of the best beer i have ever set my lips on. Anyways, it is time to go check in to my new hostel (I have now killed enough time at the internet cafe!!). So everyone give your mommy's a big huge for Mothers' Day since I can't! But I will catch you all later and I miss everyone.

Mmmmm Prague, drink it down.... it always goes down smooth

Well as you can guess I made it to Prague just fine and dandy :). I met up with Jas and Eva and we have been kickin' it the past couple days. It is really nice and warm here which is a nice change from Berlin where it was like I was in a bigger seattle.

I am kind of mad right now because I forgot my wire to hook my camera up because I have some amazing pictures of Prague!! It is just amazing how old and huge everything is. It is just absolutly crazy. We went on a free tour today which I didn't expect to be much, but it might have been one of the coolest things that we have done!! But you know after about 4 miles of walking the feet start getting a little tired lol. Though on the good side my knee hasn't acted up yet :).

Prague is much different from Germany, more people here speak english (or are more willing to) than in Germany, go figure right. But also, I have learned that English is pretty much the common language, so if either of the people don't understand eachother they resort to english if you are Czech, Asian, Swedish, German or whatever. It is really odd to hear so much English being spoken around me, where in Germany I was walking around and would only hear German. Which in it's self became very nice, it was an odd peaceful feeling to not understand anyone around you, because you didn't try to focus on what others where saying. But let me tell you, I have also realized that American English is the loudest sound, there can be a pub filled with people from all over, and you can here the American at the other end of the bar.

Anyways, I should probibly get back up to Jas and Eva before they get pissed and leave me here (even though the milkshake I had to buy to get free internet is really good and isn't gone yet), but everything is good, and the food is actually very good :).

Oh and on one more quick funny note. For all those that have seen eurotrip, when they go to eastern europe how everything is about 10 years behind, though a little over the top, it is soooo true. I hear music over the pop radio waves from back in the 90's. A little crazy! Or a song by Dido that premired in 2002 or something like that is one of the big hits around here right now ha ha ha. Anyways on that note, time to get my walk on! Take care!

and so it begins.....

So I have made it to Germany alive!! So it has been an interesting ride thus far already ha ha ha. Ok first thing that pisses me off about this place is that the key board has the y and the z in switched places and it really messes with your typing. Ok so yes there are things that i love about this place and others that i don't. Things that I love, the beer, the food, the people, the buildings, and the taxi drivers. Things that i don#t like, taxi prices, trying to find my hostel, being woken by angry train conductors and being woken up at 6 am by two french people doing their thing lol. Oh well it happens i guess. Anyways i will have much more later, but alas i have an early train to get in the morning for prague. So take care and i will let you know how it all goes!!

And down the home streach I go....

Well I am now being very very productive at work and writing in my blog, how cool am I ha ha. So yeah yesterday I came home for lunch to see my roommate moving out with out letting the land lord or myself know. Ha ha, what a dip. All I have to say is thank god for Craigslist, and its ability to get information out fast! So now I am in the clear with 100% of the damage deposit that we get back going to me since he bailed with no notice.

So today is the last day of death care for me. I feel bad, I am the most worthless person today. I have no gumption to do anything right now.... I just want to get back to my house and continue packing and cleaning, because it is going to be a whole bucket of no fun to clean that place. On the bright side Brando has stepped up to be quite the homie during this transition, and is helping me out alot!

But just to think in six days I will be boarding an airplane to the other side of the world, and in a week I will be in Berlin. Wow, doesn't seem real as of yet. Oh well there is too much to much else to think about before I worry about all of that, like getting packed and cleaned and all that fun jazz!!

Well time to go to try to be productive, but I give no promises ;). Till next time, cheers!!

And tired......

Well today is going to be quite the day. I haven't really slept much since last night at a great toga party the hosts got a little too drunk, so Big Nick and myself decieded that we needed to stay up all night to make sure these two girls who were passed out in the bathroom and hallway were going to be ok. (Yay karma points). Coming back down, I thought what a beautiful day, I have my cheer banquet today, everything is going to be ok. Then I come home.....

So my annoying ass roommate was there to greet me, oh joy! Pretty much telling me that I need to pay my part of the rent that I won't be around. Oh did I mention the kid hasn't even helped look for someone to take this over, or maybe because I am having to lie my ass off to some poor fool that is going to have to live with this kid. We still don't have internet because he didn't think it was important to pay that fun little bill (I had to get clearwire for myself and he got pissed). But yeah I will pay any sort of charge to my land lord before I will give that little bastard a dime.

Ok now that I have vented a little and I feel better, one week and one day till I leave :). That should make things a little better. But damn I have to start getting my stuff all packed up. Maybe that is what I will do today, I will get my pack on when I get home from the banquet! I am pretty excited!!

Anyways, it is shower time, and then banquet! So I will see you on the other side!! Cheers!

Oh buddy

So yeah, this past week has been just crazy!! So lets start with my journey to the Tri-Cities! I now love my parents to death for getting me the hell out of that place. It sucked!! It was great to see Crossy again, and two places I used to live, but well other than that.... boo ha ha ha.

Then I went to Portland to look at a gym, that the owner, David, wanted me to check out and see if I might be interested helping out there. Honestly, I didn't think that I would really care for Portland (being the kind of person that absolutly loves Seattle), but wow! I loved the gym, I loved Portland, David and Jason were very nice and hospitable. Above all I had the best doughnut of my life (yes I am a fat kid at heart). It was from Voodoo Doughnuts, and it was an applefitter (sp?), and it had chocolate and penutbutter all over it. WOW!

It is crazy, because I have had my tickets for Europe for months, and for whatever reason, it hasn't felt real (still kind of doesn't) until this week when I have been figuring out times that I am going to intercept Jasmine and Eva in Berlin. Six a.m. will be interesting in Berlin since that is when I need to meet them at the trainstation to head to Prauge.

Last night I got to go over to Chad and Michelle's and play rockband and drink Gin and Tonics :). It was quite great! And I am really going to miss them after I am gone, they have become my favorite cheer parents.

Anyways, I really should go do something productive with my time, like go to lunch (since I am at work) and stop by and start my stunting clinic. So till next time, stay classy!! Cheers!!

mmmmm sleeping in!

YAWN!!! Man I love lazy days like today :). I just woke up about an hour ago (it is almost noon), and i am now eating cereal in my boxers in the most unsexy way you could ever imagine! Only 2 weeks and 6 days 4 hours and 46 mins untill my flight leaves! Wow, I have nothing done yet ha!

On an up note I have been offered two jobs, one in Oregon, and one here in Washington. It is a double edged sword, because there is a good chance I will have a good job to come home to, but then again that means there is alot more things that I need to get prepared before I can leave. Oh well I should just be grateful that I have job offers in this economy, because my good friend Brando has been unemployed for over 6 months with nothing coming up for him.

On another note I have become overly addicted to Lost, to the point that the other night I couldn't stop watching episodes, so I just sat up till 5am (started around 9:30pm) just watching them till I just passed out. Bleh!



Anyways, enough with the babbling on for now, I need to get my ass showered and get my oil changed and start getting my stuff packed. There is a lot of things to get done in the next couple weeks, so I need to start getting my hussle on lol.

Till next time, cheers!

Casinos are for old people....

Ok so I woke up this morning with the realization that the only old people hang out at the casino bars...... and smokers. Man, I haven't smelled this bad of smoke when I woke up in a long time. I went out though last night with Chad and Michelle (parents of Kortni one of my cheer girls), and jammed out to some good ol' country music! We all had a very good time!

Today though, time to actually try to get my car cleaned out.... I have been saying that I was going to do it for a while! So I best get on it, it is a beautiful day! So get out and enjoy it :)!!

Hey it is a start.....

Well, here we go, I now have entered the 'blog-o-sphere' or whatever you want to call it. Anyways I am sitting here about to get my butt in to gear to get some things done and get ready for my trip. Only 4 weeks and 3 days till i am gone!! Wow I am excited/nervous!

Anyways, on the list of things to do for my day
1) Create blog (check)
2) Chat it up with Jasmine (my friend from Sweden :)) (check)
3) Go to the bank
4) Go bug my travel agent about going to mexico when I get back
5) Gym
6) Parents house to help them order a head stone
7) Do something unproductive!!

Not a bad list for the day! Anyways, till next time! Cheers!!
