My economics final is tomorrow, but i am in no mood to study for it because... I leave for the sunny beaches, quaint villages, dangerous roads, ancient ruins, and rustic charm of ole Mexico and Guatemala tomorrow night!
Truth be told, im a little apprehensive. I dont like the fact that i'll be carrying cash, my camera and ipod, and wearing my Topman underwear (haha) while backpacking through dangerous (or so im told) Mexican streets. Doesnt help that neither me nor my 2 hwachong companions speak a word of Spanish. And the only Spanish phrase I've learnt during all my time here, surrounded by Americans who take Spanish as a 2nd language, is "Yo tengo una fiesta en mis pentalones" or "I have a party in my pants." I'm sure that's not going to get me any chicks.
Still, its these risk-taking, grab-life-by-the-balls, have exciting adventures in exotic countries events that lead to the sort of lifestyle I so desire.
And since the internet there is going to maddeningly slow, will probably not get the opportunity to blog about my adventures till my return on the 6th of January 2007. But yes, dont worry, I will return with tons of pictures and stories to tell :)
So dear reader, allow me to take this opportunity to wish you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, and thank you for yet another wonderful year of allowing me to share my (mis)adventures with you through this blog.
Till next year, "yo tengo una fiesta en mis pentalones!"
(yesyes, i know i spelt tengo and pentalones wrongly the last time. I had like 5 minutes of spanish education before i came here.)
