I think it might be time for a long break from this thing.

So with my musical luck, my birthday present of the White Stripes concert was canceled. Apparently Meg White is suffering from "acute anxiety" and therefore all further US and UK shows of this tour have been canceled. I am sooo disappointed - it is a pretty lame excuse. Are there not dozens of drugs that treat anxiety ( Read more... )

To sum up my birthday celebration, it was both pleasant and expensive. My mom always has her assortment of gifts she gives to me, but my Max by far topped her and everyone else: he gave me four days in Las Vegas at the MGM Grand... and I made it cost him more than he thought it would. I pushed the limits so much that Max made it quite clear this ( Read more... )

Happy birthday to me,
Happy birthday to me,
Happy birthday to me-e
Happy birthday to me.

21 - not a bad age at all.

As one of my last explorations of the UK (at least during this time) I went on a weekend trip as arranged by the school to "The Heart of England." Apparently the atriums and ventricles of England are Warwick Castle, Stradford-Upon-Avon and Oxford. In a word, it was relaxing.

Eek, I only have a week!

The time has been short, but well spent. I am definitely looking forward to seeing my mama and lovah as soon as I hop off that blasted plane in the States. But let me not jump ahead.

No more international trips for me. I have simply been soaking up as much Sussex, Brighton, and London as I can get. In the past week I have ( Read more... )

In the past seven nights, I have slept in a bed only twice. The other five nights were spent on buses, trains, planes, and their corresponding stations. Such is the way I travel.

After Ireland, I did not have any concrete plans for any further travel. I had been invited to go to Germany with a group, but that plan ended up not falling through. I ( Read more... )

Since there were three measly days between Paris and Ireland that consisted mostly of preparation for my class final, I did not bother to update on week 4. But to be brief, I did manage my time to see a production of Twelfth Night which featured X-men's Professor Xavier (Patrick Stewart) as Malvolio. Also, I am pulled to say that I failed at yet ( Read more... )

After this past weekend I am now able to say I have climbed the Eiffel Tower and survived - that would make a great t-shirt.

Everything about this week has gone smoothly and I feel like I can finally exhale. With everything financial taken care of I can now enjoy myself.

Saturday I made an attempt at debauchery - ya know, to start the week off right. I accepted a random invitation to go out to pubs and clubs and drink the night away. Apparently Saturday nights are far too ( Read more... )
