Travelling Part Deux

Yay! It's that time of the year again, time to hit the old dusty trail! :D  Since I am unemployed until mid-September I figured the best use of my time and money was to go travelling!  The agenda so far is as follows:

June 15-30: 3 days in Singapore, then 5 days diving in Sipadan, 3 days in Ho Chi Minh, 2 days in Siem Reap.  This should be an awesome trip minus the fact that I'm going to be travelling with the brothers (Kevin and Neal) and Kevin's friend Chris and Akari (Akari's there for only 4 days).  So basically it's going to be the guys getting drunk and me being like "aw come on guys, really? what did you eat?!"  Ah, good times had by all.

July 2-30:  Belize.  I'm doing an MBA's Without Borders project there (yes, MBAs have hearts too, not just doctors!).  I'm super excited about this project since it'll be working with 3 other people who are also going to be working for the same company in the fall.  As per usual, I'm not sure what the details of the project are but will update when I figure it out!

August 1-16:  Solo travelling in Central America!!! YAY!! Um yeah, that's the extent of that travelling, I was thinking of Nicaragua but then my brain started hurting from any more planning than that so I guess I will figure this portion out when I'm in Belize.

August 16-25:  Los Angeles! Yes it's the most exotic place ever! You can see all sorts of creatures with crazy botox :D  Actually the girls are coming into town for a fun filled week! Can't wait to see everyone!!!!! It's been too long!

August 25-early Sept: I'm still trying to figure out whether it will be Croatia or Machu Picchu

Early Sept - when my life is handed over to the man: Barcelona!  Yep, I've never been to Spain before. Yes it's embarassing, but this will soon be rectified! Also, let's hope that Greece continues to suck so I can go to Barcelona and be the rich American!

So here's a preview of what's to come.  I met an old, white guy (yes I am still specifying his race Chase, deal with it), let's just call him "Uncle Ray" who was telling me about how he was going to the Phillipines to meet his fiance.  It turns out it was actually just his pen-pal who he was hoping was going to become his fiance on this trip out.  That's when I graciously backed out of the conversation.  Lucky for me though, he ended up sitting next to me for an AMAZING 14 hour flight where I was stuck between him and another big old guy (note to self, check in online before hand to get a window or aisle seat).  First he sits down and was like "hey didn't I meet you in line? you can't imagine how much I had to bribe the ticket people to seat me next to you".  Yup, he managed to out-creep himself. So during the flight the attendant had Ray reach over to wake me up for a meal to which he replied "I know she's beautiful, but she's not my wife", imagine waking up to hearing that?! I proceeded to vomit into a paper bag. Again, Ray, you've out-creeped yourself, bravo! Just to up the ante, other fat guy on the other side of me started asking me about whether I had a boyfriend or not and how he would love to introduce me to his daugher, yes daughter.  Riiiight.  It was a happy flight for sure!

That's all for now! I'm going to try to soak myself in bleach to wash the creep off my skin.
