School's Out...

... forever!

I wrapped up my classes on the 8th. My grades came back a week or so later and I got A's in both! :D My final GPA came back as 3.59, so I'm happy. I was hoping for a 3.5 or above, and I just made it. Hooray!

With the trip to Japan off, I'm planning something bigger. Way bigger. Huge.

The trip I'm planning is going to take a year and a half to save up for, not to mention a lot of hard work. Ghostwriting pays well, but if I want to make this trip, I have to stick to a rigid work schedule from now until July of next year. But it'll be worth it.

I'm officially planning to backpack across Europe. I've always thought about it, but I looked into it and it's actually very doable if I stay on track. My goal? To hit thirty destinations and nine countries in three months. And it's going to happen.

I really need this. Before I settle into another crazy work/school schedule that'll take up all my time and energy, I want to see the world. I don't want wake up the morning of my thirtieth birthday and regret that I never did any of the things that my teenage self wanted to do.

Nope. No regrets for me. I'm going to go to the top of the Eiffel Tower. I'm going to climb the Swiss Alps. I'm going to drink beer from Germany, eat gourmet chocolate in Belgium, sail across the River Thames, swim in the French Riviera, and it's going to be awesome.
