The last spring break is officially over. What a bummer! Here's a recap of what I did. It would be longer but I started writing it yesterday and accidentally went back and lost it.
Came home Thursday. Parents were sneaky and bought a beautiful 2007 Honda Ridgeline without telling me. I love it. I love driving it. It drives just like a car. I want it ( Read more... )

so now i'm looking into Japan because my parents have a stereotype of China and are terrified of the possibility of me going there. I don't have to listen to them but I'd love to go to Japan as well. So yeah...
