Boy, oh boy!

Just landed! Thank god! It's sunny and clear in London- I'm super excited! I was stuck sitting next to this guy who wouldn't stop talking to me. He was from New York City, like really from New York City...grew up there. You would think that would make him cool but NOPE! He's a playwright. I told him, "I've never heard of you!" He said, "Well, do you go to the theater?" and I was like, "No way, asshole! I'm not into conformist bullshit!" Ok, I didn't say that that but I was thinking it. I guess he was doing some sort of exchange thingy or something in London. I tried talking to him about traveling and he was like, "Oh, I don't travel much, unless my play is getting produced, then I will travel to where it is getting produced." BORING! Could you imagine living like that!? Whatever. I think he liked me. He wanted to get drinks later this week. I don't know. Maybe if I'm really, really bored and I have knives coming out of my eyes.
LONDON!

Who cares!

Security totally took all of my toiletries. I don't think I should be penalized because I want to travel light. Look, I'm trying to be low impact. Just because some asshole thinks they can pack 500 outfits for a week in paris doesn't mean we all have to. Seriously, there was really annoying lady in line who wouldn't stop talking about ALL the shopping she was going to do in Paris. Grow up LADY! Life is about seeing not shopping! I'm happy I'm outta here!
1 more hour until my flight takes off. Window seat- here I come! I will have to get new EVERYTHING when I get to London because of the MAN. Oh well, maybe I can get some cool, organic stuff from Harrods.
Kisses to all!
Peace and Truth!

Tomorrow!

Dear USA,

Thank you for all you have given me. But now I need more. I want to meet people from other countries and talk to them and understand what it is they are all about. I want to hear new music and taste REAL wine and make love to dark haired guys. I want to see children who don't know how to tweet and girls who drink unpasteurized milk. Basically, I want to see the world, my world and learn about life from people who are really living. Not like everyone here who is plugged into their electronic monkeys. Oh shit, that reminds me! I forgot to pick up a power converter for my iphone. Ok, add to the list for tomorrow morning... Ugh! So much to do!!!!

ok, everyone- get some SLEEP!

Cha...Ching!

Sweet! Just talked with my parent's accountant and the Euro is totally dropping. I guess it's kinda bad for the world economy but it means extra cash for me! Maybe I will splurge on a hotel when I arrive in London instead of a hostel...
Bottle of red, anyone? ha ha ha!

Closer!

Got my passport! The picture is super cute. I'm really happy. I had to turn off my phone. I keep getting texts from my boyfriend. Sorry for anyone who's trying to reach me. I can't wait to get outta here!!!! I'm a little scared but not really. I skyped with my friend Kim in Oz. She may try and meet up in Malta or something awesome like that. There's nothing here for me anymore. It's like I finally realized that I'm not the same person I was in college. I have changed. My boyfriend needs to understand that. We want different things. I want to have different lovers. I crave new experiences. I'm not a kid anymore. There is a giant world out there that I intend to see. It's so important, you know? How can I call myself a citizen of the world if I've never really seen it? I think everyone should follow their hearts and their guts. If you're in a shitty job, quit! It's that simple, I did!
Ok, I have to go talk to my parent's accountant. Peace!

Here we go...

My boyfriend won't stop crying. I can't do this, you know? Help! I just need space to travel right now. God, I'm so hungover. I can't handle this all this drama right now.

What's up!?

Only a few more days. So, here's the deal. I'm taking a long trip. I just woke up one morning and was like, "I can't be a barista anymore." My life is just slipping away from me, one latte at a time. And I see all of these people coming in and getting their coffee and they are miserable. I don't want to be like them when I'm in my thirties. Sorry, no offense to people in their thirties. But there is so much more to life then a desk job and happy hour. There has to be, right?
When I was in school, I did a movement piece called, Squeeze Me Dry. It was about a girl who couldn't find her keys. Every morning she would look and look but they were never there. She also had a limp from a really bad cold.
So, I woke up and remembered the girl I created for my art project and thought, "Shit! I'm turning into her!"
No way! I'm outta here!!!!

I can take care of myself, thank you!

I hate rules. How am I suppose to plan a journey when I can't even pack shampoo and conditioner? They tell me that it's meant to keep me safe. Really? How is my soap going to hurt anyone? If people would just start from a place of love instead of fear, then maybe there wouldn't be any terrorists. Whatever, I'm going to carry on my toiletries. I refuse to be afraid.

Hey World!

I can't believe it but I'm finally getting out of town. Now that the volcano has decided to stop puking smoke, I can get on a plane to Madrid. It's like the earth is freaking out and I'm along for the ride.
