wow, i think i'm just now coming out of my amsterdam haze. crazy. well, half crazy. first night i met up with some english guys and a scotish guy and went barhopping with them. next day, went to anne frank and depressed myself. then chilled out and read. even in amsterdam i can read for half a day. monday went to rijsmuseum (sp?). then took a nap ( Read more... )

so, almost done with paris. it's weird how i spent so much time plannin this thing and then it's just been going so quickly. course, i still have like 2 weeks to go but i'm almost a third done. maybe a bit more even. aussi, j'en ai marre d'anglais. avant, je voulais parler un petit peu angais et maintenent tous que je vous est d'avoir une ( Read more... )

so far my vacation has been a freaking blast. i'm exhausted as all hell but its all good. and i will definately be sending things home when i get to paris. i wish i could send this damn laptop home. too heavy. anyway, nice rocked. beaches and bars, what could be better? marseille was oook but much too many stairs. with a forty pound pack that is ( Read more... )

second day or wandering around strange villages with no real purpose...hmm its kinda tiring. next time i should really buy a guide book...and a car, that would be really cool considering i was in the loire valley where all the motherfucking castles were. sigh. but it was still cool. i did a really good impression of stupid there for a bit when i ( Read more... )

soooooo, today was my first day travelling. kinda cool. have decided that chartres really didn't have that much too see tho. a cathedral which was by all right rather nice but i've seen a lot of chathedrals. and it was pretty touristy, i got excited when i saw a proxy. there were some nice parks tho which i ended up chilling in and reading a book ( Read more... )

so, i've finally decided that i really do like living in France...I just really don't like living with people who treat me like a guest and a family member at the same time. It's confusing, I hate people that aren't direct, I don't read all that subtle 3 times coded shit. sigh. oh well, only one more week living here. I wouldn't mind living a while ( Read more... )

hmm, i mock packed yesterday...i'm going to have to cut some stuff down. what kinda sucks is that i'm travelling after living here for a year so it's not like i could just take the bare minimum and leave the rest. all of it has to get home(for the most part) one way or another. either on my back or thru the mail both of which i have to pay for one ( Read more... )

i'm already tired of planning this stupid trip. maybe because i spent a good 3 hours yesterday checking out hostels to go fuck it i don't care and just picked them. i still have dublin too and now i'm only couchsurfing in Ireland. sigh. hostels are ticking me off already, they don't tell you before you book that weekends are going to be 10 euros ( Read more... )

i've been having a major dancing for no reason week. dunno why really, but it's cool. star wars was alright but i think it's definately one of those "seems better because its in French" movie. another example would be irobot. *nods*

i'm really ready to get out of chateau. its not like i don't like it alright and all. but i am so ready to leave and ( Read more... )

well, so much for continuing yesterday. we walked to the chateau today for lunch today which was pretty cool. i about died tho cuz i felt like crap. didn't quite make it back to school for history. eh *shrug* only a week left anyways. one of these days (hopefully in the next two weeks) i'll start actually bringing my camera around cuz our chateau ( Read more... )
