(Dios Mio! means Oh My God! in Spanish) 1.5 more days of intense work - planning, cleaning, packing, and studying - then we are off to Barcelona! YAY! I am getting really excited. What shall I wear while I am there? Guess I don’t have to worry about that question when I am on the beach….hee hee
Today is April Fool’s Day, but I couldn’t come up with any good pranks for anyone. My best early April Fool’s Day prank was given to my dad (who didn’t fall for it for more than 1.5 seconds). I called him 1.5 weeks ago to tell him that I decided to change my major to interior decorating, and it would only take 1.5 years and about $10,000 more before I got my degree, which would be from a two-year institution ofcourse, because Georgia Tech doesn’t offer interior decorating. I guess I laid it on too thick to make it believable. I was quite impressed with myself for even thinking of this idea. I have this condition the French like to call “stair wit,” where you only think of good jokes or the right thing to say after the fact, when you are leaving the party and walking down the stairs, and then it clicks.
So I will try to update my site while I am gone, but I can guarantee that there will be no pictures included until I get back to my Precious laptop. She doesn’t like the sun and sand as much as I do, so she will not be joining me. Au revoir….
p.s. My mom and my aunt got back to the States safe and sound, and they had a wonderful time in Paris, and they were not harrassed at all by the French. Just so you guys know it is safe to travel here.
