I'm giddy with excitement. I've wanted to go to Japan since I was around 9 years old. In 6th or 7th grade we had to plan a trip to another country, and I chose Japan -- I was very absorbed in the research. (I was also a weeb for much of my life.) I was always perturbed by how I ended up in China studying Mandarin when one of my original intentions for a major was Japanese. Had I gotten into University of Maryland, things would probably be very different... but here I am now, embracing a hedonistic approach to artistic expression.
Thank you Mrs. Brokenborough for teaching me how to plan a trip and make an itinerary. I've practiced this skill more than you could probably have ever imagined. And thank you to my parents, for the sacrifices that led me to be in such a privileged position. I'm so so so excited. Life is wonderful.
I'm going to be posting more pictures from Thailand in the next few days. It may not seem like it based on my past few posts, but there's a lot to like about Thailand. Pattaya is far from a fair representation of the country as a whole, so I'd really like to share what I've learned with you over the past few days. I do plan on coming back, but it will be very, very different on my part when I do.
