What I did with my government loans

So I had my vacation month in November since we don't get summers off anymore, and enough extra money and time that I thought I would try to take a trip. Now that I have my passport and have never been to Europe.. I just picked Barcelona and found a cheap flight and a hostel and booked it. It also helped that I wasn't held back by a girl partying in my room who puked in a trash can. Sorry Sam, the blog has been rough on you recently, but I had to put it in. I was abroad 11 days, with 8 days in Barcelona and 3 days for a trip to Paris I booked while I was there. Since nobody else actually had the same vacation month or time to come with me, I just went by myself. I met plenty of random friends from Australia, Canadia, Germany, the UK, Chile, Colombia, Belgium, and all over.. Chris, I even met a Polack friend who I told should come to Chicago since there are probably more of his people there than in his city. I actually liked visiting Barcelona better than Paris, but they were both pretty awesome for a sheltered Indiana boy who had never been past Mexico or the Caribbean. Anyway I put up a bunch of pictures on facebook for whoever still goes on there.

Merry Christmas everyone, and keep the blog going
