(The number one celebrity I'm compared to? Rachel Dratch ^^. "You look like her... but prettier!" TOO LITTLE TOO LATE.)
Today I'm going to talk about: the future.
Specifically, my future in Europe. Now that I only have ten days left here, I'm starting to mourn for the places I could have gone if I had 2,000 euro to throw around. I was told that as soon as you go to Europe once, you get the bug. Hopefully, by making this list I will be pushed to come back soon.
1) Go back to London and spend more than 2 days there
I feel like I didn't get enough time in any of the places I visited, but London was particularly difficult. It's just so big, and there are so many things to do. Specifically, I would try to stop by my friend's recommended pub called: Dirty Dicks
It just looks fun. And I didn't get the chance to stop by any pubs while I was there. The reason for this is that all pubs close at 11:30 (oh Europe...) but all the natives reassured me that if I get in there before 11, they might stay open until midnight. And I think we ALL know what kind of craziness happens when Brits stay up past midnight:
I attach all my thoughts on British people to Harry Potter.
2) Visit IrelandI connect all of my thoughts on Ireland to the movie, "War of the Buttons." Have you seen it? Of course you haven't. No one has except for the members of my immediate family.
And to my family I say:
"Please sir, how many swear words do you know?"
"What makes you think I know any?"
"You're grown up, my daddy known hundreds!"
"Then I suggest you take your problem up with him."
I can't even tell you why I want to go to Ireland. I just... do. It's pretty. It's also the one place that I could see myself going alone. I'm not saying that I don't want company. I'm just saying I think I could go there by myself and not have a mental breakdown because I don't speak the language.
3) Visit East Europe
It is a whole different world over there. I think I'd like to visit Croatia, possibly the Czech Republic. And those countries aren't even that far east. If I really want to get crazy, I could visit Bulgaria or Romania. You know, if there wasn't the whole corrupt government and organized crime thing going on.
4) Play soccer with Europeans
From my observations at the park that I like to visit, even 5-year-olds could kick my ass in soccer. European families go to the park with their adorable French speaking children (don't get me started), drive some sticks into the ground to serve as goal-posts, and just go nuts. Not to mention the groups of 20-something men who play in the park and get WAY too into the game. Every goal scored is grounds for the emission of a guttural battle cry.
5) Visit Berlin/Go back to Amsterdam and ride a bike
I was waaayy to scared to ride a bike in Amsterdam, but I think if I went back, or if I visited Berlin (where bike-riding is also popular) I could summon the courage. I mean... come on.
It's just so cute I can't stand it.
ohh goodness there are so many more things, but I'll have to finish this list later. Time for class!
