Many Days

Alright, so I've been super lazy. Possibly the laziest. It's been at least 10 days since I've updated (but who's counting), and that was just to tell you that I'm lazy. Now that my second round of tests is over, I will probably be better. I don't have any more schoolwork to get done until December, so you've got my full attention for about 20 days. Maybe I'll even get ahead so that I won't be freaking out come December!

Wishful thinking.

Anyway, I'm not gonna go back through every day individually because that would just be really long and boring and you're not THAT interested. Well, maybe John is because he's a gimp, but that's another story. (Love you, John!)

Here are some things that you missed: Say Nothing Day (I didn't talk for much of the day because I spent a good majority of it either in class or cleaning my room excessively), Be On the Look Out for the Paranormal (as per usual), Ignore Today (well accomplished), Go to Church (not accomplished. I don't like churches that much unless they're cathedrals...in Europe), and Apply for a Knighthood (there's no way they would give it to me).

Today is Walk Barefoot on Grass day. Luckily, it's warm enough out to accomplish this. Which is also quite strange, because I happen to live in Buffalo. Where winter usually begins in the beginning of October. However, the grass is kind of wet and my toes get cold pretty easily. Bad idea.

Don't worry, after this I promise to be more consistent. I pinky-promised Rachael. With both hands.

Day Four: Work Out Your Globetrotting Plans (Yellenahs)

I can't wait to travel the world. I want to see everything.

The world map that we found on the interwebz hurt my eyes with all of its pixels. So instead of coloring in a map of the world with countries I have been to/want to go to, I am including this nifty list.

Been there, done that:

• The United States. Obviously, because I live here.
• Canada. Obviously, because the drinking age is lower there.
  
• Japan. I took a P2P trip to this fascinating country a few years back. I drank water with "sweat" in the title and ate things like Pocky.
• The Bahamas. Disney Cruise, ftw!!

Intend to go there this year: None this year, unless I study abroad in Italy. But, alas, I am only a poor college student for now.

Intend to go there sometime before I die: I'm just gonna go ahead and say the whole world. Honestly, I don't think I can say there's a place I wouldn't like to go sometime. Except maybe Antarctica. There's not much there. Everywhere else, though, I know there's some beauty that I need to witness. Europe is first, and I plan to visit as many cathedrals as I possibly can.

I'm also going to do the United States, because I've been to more states than countries and have more definite goals with them. For this one I have a map:


Green: Been there, done that
Blue: Intend to go there this year
Purple: Intend to go there in the next 5-10 years
Yellow: Intend to go there sometime before I die
Red: Happy never to set foot there in my whole life

I may want to spend some time in California this summer. If not, then I intend to take a mass cross-country road trip. In which case, some of those purples would be blue. Said road trip may also take me through some of the reds. It's not that I don't want to go to those places, I just don't care about them that much.
