Traveling Wish List

So.. I've been thinking the past few days about what I am going to do over the summer. I'm going to be taking summer courses, so my only times to do anything are going to be weekends. I've been working on finding a good weekend getaway so that when I get the chance, I can disappear for a few days and just RELAX.
This got me to thinking. I like traveling and of course I wish I could do it more often (but the lack of cash flow kinda puts a damper on that idea) Anyway... I started thinking about traveling and decided to create a list for myself, of places I want to travel to and see. The first half of my list are states in the US, because I think it is important for me to see everything that we have to offer before traipsing off to other countries. Also, I've included places I have already been but would definitely travel to again. Hopefully one day, this list will be much much smaller.

Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Louisiana, Maine, Montana, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Mexico, North Carolina, Rhode Island, Texas, Utah, Vermont, Washington, Aruba, Bermuda, Bonaire, Cayman Islands, Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands, Antigua, Bahamas, Barbados, Canada, Costa Rica, Jamaica, Mexico, Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Venezuela, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, United Kingdom, Tahiti

Pork Chops

Okay, so when I get really bored or need some procrastination time (which is right now) I look up recipes. Nothing specific really, anything that sounds good. I found a recipe that I REALLY want to try. Next time I go home, definitely going to try and make it. Take a peek. Looks delicious :)

Role Reversal?

Leap day.. something that only happens every four years.. we all know this, but do we know what else happens?? I heard it on the radio this morning and thought to myself that I needed to remember to look it up. Leap day is also known as the day for women to propose. "According to folk tradition, the leap year (and especially the leap day) is when women can take the lead in popping the question - and when their proposals cannot be refused." Well that's something different (not in a bad way.. just different from what our society and culture are used to). Check it out.. here and here

new..

I've been trying to pay more attention to new music and I've been listening to Kate Voegele. I think she's got a great voice and they have a good sound. The songs are mainly about losing love and stuff like that but they are still pretty good.

How to Seduce an Aries.. :)

So.. I was browsing AOL.com like I do almost everyday, just to see whats going on, see what people are interested in and came across this article in the Astrology section titled Seduction by Sign, and of course I became curious and decided to see if any of it actually fit my sign (Aries). Let's just say.. I was shocked... it hit the nail on the head! LOL I don't really know how accurate it was toward many of the other signs.. but I do think that the Gemini, Leo, and Scorpio were also on the right tracks (or at least apply pretty well to the people I know with those signs). Take a look, see if it describes what you like :)

Have you always wanted blue eyes?

So... I'm sure everyone has thought about contacts before, and wanting to change your eye color. I have brown eyes and have always wanted green or blue.. but this is just one extent I will not go to for blue eyes. Check it out BLUE EYES

Freaky stuff huh?! I love tattoos.. I've got a few of my own and I am always wanting more, but there will never be a day that I would even consider getting my EYEBALL TATTOOED! There is no way to know what the side effects of injecting your cornea with ink is going to do to you in 20 years! Definitely one trend.. I will NOT be following.

here goes..

Its only 12:40ish and I'm already pissed off. I had to get up at 6.. which was lovely, I left my room by 7, and got to my observation site at about 7:45. Sat around watching a class for about 3 hours and decided to leave early because when I looked outside.. it was blizzarding... PERFECT! Driving across the Mid-Hudson Bridge, I couldn't see ANYTHING, but obviously I have arrived back safely, but I can't stand how stupid people get when the weather gets bad.. they seem to forget how to drive. I circled campus twice trying to find a parking spot close to my class.. and there were none.. so I came back to my room.. and stayed. There was no way I was getting to the computer lab to print out papers and getting to my class on time.. so OH WELL. There is always next week.
