goodbye washington, hello utah.

I'm back. (said in a russian tone) Seattle was incredible! The greatest adventure I've ever been on. Thank you to the Eborall's who were sweet enough to put up with me for a week. And thank you to Washington for entertaining me like a little girl in a candy shop.
Look at the cute colorful houses!
Entering the city.
The Experience Music museum. Soooo amazing. I had to pry myself out of there, hours later.
The view from the space needle.
On the ferry!

I must go back to my dreamland soon.

I'm just sayin.

I am a really awkward person. There's no way around it. Why else would all these awkward situations come into my life, every single day? They've become a part of me. And I think I'm okay with it. So watch out world...

my awkwardness is coming for ya.

It's official.

I'm going to Seattle! Booked my flight yesterday. Thanks for your sweet advice and words of wisdom in my previous post. I'm so beyond excited that I've been dancing around the living room for days, even though I'm not going to the warmest place in the world for spring break ;)

I've started a list of things I must do in my dreamland. 1. Visit Fremont, the center of the universe. 2. Get a coffee at the original Starbucks. 3. Visit a few Universities. 4. Space Needle. 5. Music Experience Museum. 6. Coast boat tour. 7. Shopping. 8. Visit the ocean. While it's raining, I'm sure.

How's everyone celebrating spring break 2011?

Dearest blogger inhabitants,

I am seeking your advice. I may be taking my trip to Seattle sooner than expected :) but I will be going alone. Traveling on a plane for the first time in.. 14 years. I'll be staying with familiar faces just 20 minutes outside the city, so I'll most likely be taking a bus into the city every day. Is this a smart thing to do? Oh boy. Right now I'm just in the I-don't-even-care-how-spooky-it-is-I'm-going-to-Seattle mood. But is this smart? Will I be okay?! Haha.

Has anyone traveled alone before?

I was just thinking.

It's all about finding positive in the negative.
So what, you've been screwed over? Instead of screwing others over, do something really special for someone. Show them you care.
So you've been hurt? When you see someone else get hurt, help them out.
If you have something to say, and then finally build up the courage to say it, only to end up getting made fun of.. just keep talking. Someone's listening to what you're saying, and someone agrees with you.
You were just the only one with enough guts to say it.
Remember when you made that huge mistake? Well, nobody else does. So move on, and learn from it. It's part of your story now. Your life story.
Get up, get out, and make stuff happen.

And leave your troubles behind.
