i went missing in the month of June.

Soooooo I haven't updated this thing in over a month!I had every intention of posting but as my last few weeks wind down and the weather is warmer, my schedule just keeps getting more hectic. I am so excited to be going HOME! Of course I don't regret coming here although there are some things I would've done differently but I need the following things in my life:

*STAMFORD Mall/shopping & Alive @ 5
*My family
*Driving.. I am soooooo over biking!
*Getting my hair/naps & nails done!
*Cheesecake Factory
*FRIENDSSSSSSSSS!
*NYC- where I will search incessantly for a Wok to Walk
*English as the national language (if you don't count Spanish of course)
*P.F. Changs or my favorite Chinese spot in my town
*THAI food at my favorite spot in New Haven

the list could go on for days but most of what I can't wait to do involves eating so I'll spare you. Although I can't wait to see anyone, I'm am NOT looking forward to answering the same questions 4959848595083 times. My friend gave me a brilliant idea- I'm going to make flyers and just pass them out to everyone.

I'm also not looking forward to packing. I brought a shitload of things with me over here and I've accumulated probably triple that amount in my time here. Good thing I'm only allowed 2 suitcases. Luckily, I am only going to be home for 2 weeks before coming back out here for another 4 months! In that time I'd like to further explore the option of finding a more career-oriented job or the possibility of going back to school. I recently found out that me finding a job here really isn't as easy as I'd thought so I'm definitely leaning more towards schooling. I'm also excited to travel and see more of the places I haven't yet gotten to go too. I'll be out here from July 29th-November 24th so if you're planning any trips, let me know and maybe we can meet up!!!

I'm still really happy with life. Naturally, I still have some frustrations but the thought of almost being done is very comforting. I still can't believe that I've been here for over 10 months. I've made so many memories and the year really flew by. These past few days and future week or so will surely crawl by (except for the weekends).

Speaking of weekends, some friends of mine from Romania are visiting and I'm really excited to show them around Amsterdam and to party! Next week I'm going to two concerts (Lil Wayne and Tracy Chapman) and spending quality time with the people I care most about here. I'm gonna miss everyone but I'm so so happy I'm coming back so it's really not good bye.

More later... and hopefully not in a month
