I feel old

About Me

Miss Goleta, Breaktime, knowing everyone in the bar, three lane freeways, flashy bowling alleys, and my friends who havent moved closer yet. Graduate school is kicking my ass and I love it. Just got back from the trip of a lifetime. Saw Jon and Sofia get married, the most beautiful wedding I have ever seen. Erupting Volcanos, sloths, monkeys, toucans, parrots, wildlife beyong belief, ATV's, ziplining, rainforest, toads, snakes, lizards, dirt roads, bugs, bugs, bugs, sunsets, the best beaches, and more; Costa Rica is the most amazing country. Despite lacking much infrastructure or a reliable mail or phone system, the people in Costa Rica are the nicest I have ever met. Coming back to Irvine is quite lackluster after the trip we just had. Back to school, back to the grind, until next time... Layout powered by HOT FreeLayouts Newest / Music / Get Your Own! | View Slideshow
