so i think im starving these days, but the starving isnt showing. HA. for example, last night's dinner was like 8 pieces of fried tofu and a package of dried seaweed. today, all i had was a piece of toast with peanut butter (european pb is disgusting) and strawberry jam for breakfast. for lunch, i had a bottle of tap water disguised as evian. dinner was pasta, of which i laced with ground pepper and mixed herbs and *drumroll* ketchup. mmmmm right?
im having a hard time trying to plan my winter vacation. its coming up so soon, and i have yet to decide the first city i will crash at. right now, im trying to figure out a place to spend christmas at. for new years, i will be in edinburgh because they have some amazing festival every new years for a whole week. however, anything else than that, i have not planned. i would like to spend christmas in paris (because that sounds nice doesnt it?) but i feel like a loner going to paris to be all romantic with myself in a hostel bed.
do i fly around everywhere? or do i use the eurorail? WHAT DO I DO?! ive looked up advice and so far all the advice ive gotten sucks, and instead ive been reading stories about people hookin up with other backpackers during their drunken adventures. good times. hahah. i just want to cop out and fly back to cali to hang out with my friends and eat korean food and buy cds and be warm. bah. but no, i cant do that. i have a great opportunity here (one that im not taking full advantage of, ill admit that much). i mean, it costs 100+ pounds to fly to prague, and thats from the cheapest websites. freaking. actually now that i think about it, its not that expensive. i think ive just become a cheap bastard.
my biggest problem here is that i cant decide WHERE i want to go. i want to go everywhere. finland, norway, italy, greece, poland, russia, hungary, czech, scotland, france, spain, portugal, ireland, etc etc etc etc. i gotta buckle down and choose like 5 countries that i want to definitely visit. my 2nd less important problem is money. these plane tickets are pricey yo. thats why im looking into the eurorail option, but the rail doesnt really get me to places as fast and as efficiently as planes do. if i take the rail, i have to take the huge risk of missing my check ins at hostels and probably obtaining an ever fatter ass due to massive hours of sitting. however, how fucking great would it be to go through europe through all of its major train systems?
blah blah blah i need to get over myself. hahaha. okay. im going to dedicate this weekend to planning all this out since i found out my cannabis paper isnt due thursday. if anyone is willing to give me advice, please do. i dont care if you havent traveled in europe, i just need some friendly words of encouragement. I NEED. I NEED GOD DAMN IT. I NEED TOO. hahahah.
hopefully tomorrow i can get a ride from liz (my housemate with a car) (who is also cool.) so i can get my grocery shoppin on. im gonna make a list of what i should buy and probably not buy whats on the list. thats just how i roll.
im becoming addicted to blogging.
take it easy.

yay, so since you won't have to worry about writing your marijuana paper--oh sorry, cannabis--and have all this committment to plan your winter break trip...
Jason you are the man. After planning WOH, you are an expert trip-planner. you could open up your own travel agency and plan trips for other people.
seriously though, think of how much fun you'll have visiting countries that have so much intense history and culture and that 'old world' vibe that so many of us only dream about seeing. you will get to soak in the beauty of it all, to ponder the legacy of humanity, and revel in history associated with all the places you'll see. and of course, you can revel in the modern day glories of each nation too. i'm stoked just thinking about it! =D
other ppl need to start posting on this blog of yours...
i know ill have fun. i just like to complain. haha. ill dedicate this weekend to planning. WOOT.
