A couple years ago my friend Molly and I came up with the motto, "people should pay to have our lives". During my time in Korea I definitely did not feel like that. I remember thinking every month of hanging in there for the money was more freedom to travel when I was done. In general I find this to be a quite despicable mentality and I hope to never find myself living so out of the moment again... although now I feel really lucky to have this summer for myself. Once again I feel like "people should pay to have my life". (If anyone has any ideas on how I can capitalize on that idea I am open to suggestions).
Last week was a very eventful week. I spent 4 days rock climbing, attended both a bachelor and bachelorette party, along with a wedding and climbed Mt Hood. (I also unfortunately missed an important wedding in NM). I am realizing that not only am I grateful for my free time this summer, but also for all of the amazing people I have been able to spend it with. I have been really lucky to be able to catch up with old friends as well as share new exciting adventures with them.
Other than that i have been doing lots of paperwork to try and prove to OSU that I'm an Oregon resident, not so easy when I have been out of the country for a year and a half. (No i haven't paid Oregon income tax since 2006, in fact i have not paid any taxes at all...isn't calling Oregon home enough????)
