oh the places i will (hopefully) go.

Things to do in europe-

I have started to compile a list of places I want to go, I guess you could consider it a “traveling bucket list.”

*attend christmas mass, easter mass, the first sunday of advent mass, and when the new pope is elected – at non other than st. peters (roma, italy)

*celebrate st. patricks day at a pub in ireland

*visit malaga, spain for my birthday (significance – mobile's supposed “sister city,” - although wikipedia disagrees)

*also while I am in spain, track down potential long lost relatives (I am assuming they are from madrid) and go to a bull fight.

* “yachting” off the coast of croatia...movie star style. :)

*go back to paris...because well...it is paris! (same goes for barcelona)

*go back to interlaken, switzerland during the summer and partake in the hiking and “zorbing” (when you roll down a hill in a clear inflatable ball, think human hamster wheel), and possibly even sky diving.

*and believe it or not I want to travel to munich as well (this city and germany as a whole currently remains at the end of my list of favorite places I have been), during the summer and give the city a second chance with a trip to the “beer gardens”


Some other countries i wish to travel too include : argentina, egypt, england, russia, austraila/new zealand, and south africa just to name a few. :) also i want to go back to fes (when i have money) and buy EVERYTHING. they had some of the most beautiful things: carpets, leather goods, ceramics, like i said...EVERYTHING.

INDIA!

My next “trip” that I am obsessing over is – train-ing across india! After traveling to fes (morocco) I want to get as much 3rd world traveling out of my system in my 20's...before I turn into a complaining “old” person. I think it is inevitable and happens to the best of us...

ultimately as far as my planning has gotten is, you want to visit between october and february (avoiding the humid hot summers). I want to fly into bombay on the western coast of india and some how make my way through north eastern india via train. So, that is about as far as I have gotten. Oh yeah...and I guess I need figure out how i am going to pay for this too!

im backkkkkkkkkk

i took a little break, not knowing how i initially wanted to start this blog, and then it came to me "lil wayne." thankfully the other night my subconsciousness made that possible by having another famous lil wayne dream...

i remember waking up in the middle of the night - during my crazy dream - and thinking "wow. this is insane. i should write this down.." but before i could really finish my thought (or even consider getting out of bed to document my recent thoughts) i had already fallen back asleep. well basically this is all i can remember. i was at skybar, in my pajamas (and it is the ugliest piece of sleepwear that i own - a flannel nightgown that is light blue and covered in ice cream cones) dancing around in the "boom boom room." for those who are unfamiliar with this terminology it is the very back of skybar and similar to a gymnasium, and it's where they play all the rap music. so i am back there getting my groove on when i notice that someone is taking pictures from the "top deck" (some more skybar slang - the very back of the BBR has an elevated area that looks down on the rest of the room), because i kept seeing huge flashes of light. in my dream i looked up so see who it was when they finished with their paparazzi photo shoot. and it was none other than - lil wayne. he was doing his weird laugh that he does in many of his songs. and then i was immediately embarrassed. but now i wonder what he was doing at skybar when he is supposed to be in jail...

cheesing with that purple drank.

166 days till the infamous "free weezy party." or November 4th, for those that don't want to perform basic math :)

A few random facts about lil wayne that i learned :
(thank you - behind the music: lil wayne)
-he "invented" the popular phrase "bling bling"
-he doesn't write his music, he freestyles (which i FULLY support, i am the resident "free-styler" on projects in interior design. haha)
-he has bullet shards lodged in his chest (he shot himself on accident when he was in middle school and some fragments got too close to his heart for the surgeons to remove safely)
-his daughter has the same birthday as MACKENZIE - november 29
