London, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Peterbugh, Brimingham, Amersham, Rome, Athens, Molyvos, Mytilini, Skala Erassou. I think my favorite memories of this trip will be sitting on a train or a bus, or even driving, looking out the window and thinking, "Jesus... I'm thousands of miles from anywhere I've ever been in my life..." Its been wonderful. What's next ( Read more... )

I'm thoroughly enjoying myself; however, I'm feeling lazy again. I need to get going on all my plans, and I hate to say it, but being with Katie is holding me back a little bit. It is by NO MEANS her fault. I just feel comfortable around her. It's hard for me to leave when I've established myself somewhere, especially when Katie is there. OK, I'm ( Read more... )

I called them ( Read more... )

I really wish i had more time to dress up as a peasant and walk around in an medieval fair. I really do. If I had nothing else to do, that would be how I would spend my entire weekend. I firmly believe that I was born about 300 years too late. That period in history just embodies everything that I consider to be important in life; adventure, fine ( Read more... )

Well, the week has come. I board my plane at 7pm on Thursday. London. Four months out of the country, longer than I've been anywhere except home. It's getting colder here, in Maryland. I can only imagine that it's getting colder across the pond as well. I'm going to miss my friends. I will miss this town; and, of course, as soon as I decide to ( Read more... )
