my fellow american exchange student friend allowed me to borrow her europe travel guide by lonely planet (best travel site in existence) and instead of studying and outlining essays, ive been reading this book all day. this book is the zeus of travel books and will make my month long backpacking journey easier (hopefully). it has everything i need to know about all the european countries. history, museums, events, clubs, bars, hostels, main attractions, key phrases in different languages, daily itineraries and fun facts. did you know that belgium is famous for its prostitutes that dress up as bears and have sex with their customers in the wilds of brussels? yea. that was a joke. i cant wait to eat a massive belgium waffle. i will have sex with it. glorious, sugary, carb sex.
i dont eat like i use to eat back home. my eating habits have changed. i use to eat whatever i wanted because food was so easily available and i could drive 5 minutes and get anything i wanted. now? shoot. i rarely eat food for its deliciousness. i eat cheap food so that i can save money or eat according to the date a food product expires. just today, my dinner was boiled potatos (that i laced with herbs, spices and cheese. it reminded me of appetizers you pay 10 bucks for at american restaurants) and blueberries. hahah. my blueberries expired last week, so i picked out the healthy ones and ate them. mmm. antioxidants. however, there is a positive side to my eating. ive started to experiment with cooking and its turning out better than i expected. last week, i marinated two pieces of salmon in white wine for 6 hours and then oven grilled it with herbs, fresh black pepper, garlic, chili and topped it off with this random sauce i made (i believe it was made with blackberries and white wine). it was AMAZING. i made some mashed potatoes to go along with it, and yea, i surprised myself. i credit IRON CHEF for this. my countless hours of watching iron chef is starting to pay off. all i do is go online, go to class and cook, so i think i can work my way up to achieving the title of IRON CHEF KOREA. yea.
i drink too much. well, when compared to the english and welsh, i dont drink at all. however, i do get tipsy two nights a week and i realized that my tolerance is not as high as i thought it was. this weekend, i had 4 screwdrivers and 4 beers and i was tipsy as shit. donald and helen can vouch for that. the thing is, when i get tipsy, im by myself. that would make me an alcoholic right? just an hour ago, i had half a bottle of baileys (more alcoholic than i remember) and 2 beers. its only tuesday. i gotta give up this european drinking habit before i leave, because ill need to be sober until i turn 21.
i already know what im going to post on the next update. stay tuned readers.

mad props to the chefness!
unfortunately, i feel obligated to withold props on the drinking.
the waffle. sounds. intense. i've heard they're unlike the waffles we know; that you can get them right from the street stands and eat it on the go but that it tastes like hot crispy sugary heaven.
