"there is only one thing you can do
when women get hysterical.
run.
as hard as you can."
~Leandro

I had only just realized that I haven't updated the blog with anything of substance - or anything for that matter. Time seems to fly by... And now I have less than a month in Europe and still feel like I have so much more to do. Fortunately, I'll be leaving on my "big" trip this weekend - Paris, Amsterdam, Brussels, and Rome. Should be fun, hehe.

This will also be the first trip I make on my own - up until now I've always been with friends from school (which has been awesome), but we've all gotta travel our own paths and I suppose it's time for me to go my own way - though fortunately I'll be staying with a friend in Paris and in Amsterdam I'll be staying with a cousin I haven't seen in over 9 years!

One of the best things I've found through travelling is the amazing array of people and stories. I've been in a writing mood and written a bit about it, but I need to polish it, it's not ready for prime time yet. I need to get ready for prime time, particularly since in the last phase of my internship I'll be writing a research paper that my boss wants to get published... It's a daunting task - I've never written anything as long or complex (unless you count my personal writing, but that's different...)

Anyhow, I've taken a long enough break already. Time to get more San Sebastian sand out of my computer and get back to writing. Then again, I'm not sure I'll be getting back to writing... a wise man once said, "I'm not a writer, I'm a re-writer". I can identify with that.
