pinch me, someone. please. but not so hard it leaves it mark because i'm leaving in three days for europe. two years ago, i was enviously reading blogs of friends who had done painting classes in italy, or had stayed on a sheep farm in ireland. i honestly (with loads of self pity) couldn't picture myself pulling my shit together enough to do this.
but it turns out, you can save money. it's not fun. it leads to fights about makeup, breakfasts out, books, and whether self tanner is an essential. then, one day it's time to go and you have somehow produced that sum of cash, and kept your fake summer glow.
wish us luck on this adventure! most of it is rather un-planned, so when we return i will have plenty to tell.

adios!
