6 months worth of recaps?

i'll start with london and the lot
what i wanted to do while in london:

  • go see a show
    • didn't get to do that, although the girl at the hostel invited me to see her band, i left the day they were to play
  • visit the free museums [the modern one sounds cool]
    • actually got to go to the tate modern, very cool :]
  • put ksdt stickers all over the place
    • i put some on and around the london bridge bwahhaha
  • eat fish and chips aaaahahaha
    • psh more like sandwiches and an apple
  • take a shower
    • yeah, that was great
  • try to get adjusted to the time difference
    • meh... kinda did
  • figure out where i'm going to stay in spain and how i'm going to get to france
    • ended up taking a flight from london to madrid and got picked up at the airport by Hector who then took me to a hostel, where i ended up meeting a whole bunch of cool people :D
  • oh and go to the zoo
    • nope, didn't get to do that
  • and check out the giant ferris wheel
    • aaa the eye of london, i only observed it from down below
  • and i know i will most definitely get lost mmhmm!
    • oh boy i loved the getting lost part :D i think that was the funnest ;P
  • send postcards
    • yep, did that, from the post office right of the victoria station

Then I spent a few days in Madrid, missed my bus to the south of Spain so then I took a bus to Lisbon, got off in Evora accidentally, spent the nite there, got to lisbon the next day, got a room on the 4th? 6th? floor of the place, nice hike up the stairs, and walked around lisbon until almost nite time. 

then i met up with ricardo and his friends and had an amazing time, and then ended up staying at ricardo's place for a few days. I met some awesome people, and they showed me a whole bunch of places, and i got to go to the beach and boy is the water cold! brrr... then went to a music festival in the north with some of the people i'd met: paredes de coura, then came back, spent a few days at joao's missed my bus to madrid, then decided to go to the south of portugal with him and his family, spent a few days there, came back to lisbon, took a bus to madrid, took the plane to london, tried to sleep but failed to do so at the airport in gatwick, then finally flew back to los angeles where there was no one there to pick me up. so i called up hector, who'd been back in the states a few weeks, and his sister picked me up and took me home, where there was no one there... 'cause they'd all left to mexico without meeeeeeee! le sigh...

spent a few days at home by myself, hanging out with friends, baking cakes haha

then came back to san diego...

then a few days later i went camping with my friends a bit north of santa barbara

came back, started school

and... that's about it until december when i went to Costa Rica woot woot!

Costa Rica: Spent a month there with friends.
I got there, but my luggage didn't arrive for almost a week.
The first couple of days I spent it in Alajuela with friends, then we went to Jaco, a beach town, then came back a few days, went to San Jose where I spent x-mas with another friend and his family, then went to the east coast [caribbbean side] and spent there a few days with 2 friends, then came back to the city, went to alajuela and the next day left to jaco again to spend new years over there.
Celebrating the new year on the beach is awesome, i wanna do that every year! woot yeah!
Then came back to Alajuela after a few days, and left again to another beach on the Pacific side, where we camped out a few blocks from the beach and met up with more friends there. It was awesome :D
And then we finally left that beach and I bungee jumped right outside of the town and I started saying my good-bye's to everyone and then a few short days later I left :/

then i started school again and now i'm here... 

and this blog is gonna be 2 years old soon ;P
