Right Back Atcha

Oh yeah.

I'm ready to get out of here. I wanna do this, do that, go here, eventually be in this, read these, listen to this and also this, and ride this. Unfortunately, those are all pretty much 3,000 miles and at least 3 months away. But I have a plan. It's essentially the same as I have been doing, so nothing new there really. But the book prospect is still goin' strong.

What would you guys do if you had to spend a year in France? What if you were in my position? No really, I'm seriously interested to what your ideas are. In detail. For one thing, most if not all of you guys would already have had the optimist part down because you guys were optimists to start off. But seriously. Discussion? Comment? Thoughts? Would you start a blog to annoy everyone with your annoying complaining, or try to make friends more, or travel everyplace, or just give up, or swim across the Atlantic, or I don't know?

I already asked two of my friends this question and they said they'd want to travel a lot and eat French food.

Makes sense. Totally makes sense. I've got the French food, and I've traveled a bit.

They also mentioned the whole "you're in FRANCE. So why not enjoy it?" thing. Which of course I agree with completely. Oh yes. I mean, it's FRANCE. It's not America, it's not where I was born, it's 3,000 miles away. And to get this for a whole year- man, what a lucky kid I am.

Don't worry, I'm actually getting somewhere with this post. I think...

Dang. I just really need to make that music video.

One thing I'm still wondering about though is...

How the crap have I survived 9 months of this.

Oh I also wanted to mention the fact that I have now really done something. As I have mentioned before, Maureen Johnson was the nice author to start the whole BEDA thing, and she has an awesome blog, which you should be reading. I mean, it's amazing even if you aren't a blogger or blogging everyday in April; she's a real fricking author who has written several books. But anyway, she started this ning where she'll buddy you up with people to blog with in April. You get to meet new people, etc etc. And so that's what I did. It was sort of a spur moment, because I mean, this is like putting me out on the real fricking Internet and who knows who's out there. But you know what I decided? I'd be careful, and it's not like all this people are creeps. Well, I'd assume. And who knows? What if I meet someone cool? I mean, seriously. 

So, just saying you know.


Um, 79.

Ha ha! I love that rap! I also thought your links at the top were pretty cool. As for BEDA, thumps up! Maureen Johnson is pretty cool. 79! That's so cool! That's less than 80! I love the new layout, it's very modern and cool.

The new layout is cool. I remember the rap from when you showed me like a year ago, it was awesome. We need to go biking once you get back! If I was stuck in France for a year, I would force myself to stop caring about what was going on back home, since there is nothing I could do about it. Also, I'd enjoy the food
