WALES!

So my old study abroad professor (we shall call him Tom) is taking a group of people to Wales on a whirlwind two-week trip through Wales, Scotland, and England. And Josh and I are going! We're super excited but it only gives us four months to plan and save up money and the cost is pretty hefty, though it's a smoking deal for Europe. If we can find airfare for cheap enough and dip into our savings a bit, we can totally make it happen. And the best part is that it will take place in mid-August, which means Josh will be done with summer classes and he'll come back in time to start the fall semester. It's just absolutely perfect. It will take place literally just after I graduate, so it'll be a like an awesome graduation gift to me! I'm so excited I could just die.

Now to start saving up vacation days, and looking at airlines, and dusting off my passport... *squeal* This seriously makes all the work we've put in already this year SO worth it. I thought I was going to die before this semester was over and I still have another to go, but now I know there's a light at the end of the tunnel and it's well worth it. All of it.

Here's to summer adventures!

Phoneless

My stupid phone, which I had just found, is dead. That may be because I ran it under hot water for two solid minutes. That may be because I accidentally dropped it in the toilet. That may be because I was leaning over to flush and it slipped out of my jacket pocket. I won't go into the details of using various kitchen utensils--since thrown away, of course--to fish the gross thing out of the gross bowl because I couldn't stand to put my hand in there.

In any case, I am phoneless. Josh thinks the whole thing is just hilarious.
