Thirteen Things about LINDSEY

1. Barcelona was AMAZING! We got to go to a couple of amazing churches, walked all around the Gothic quarter, and went to the Picasso museum. We had a WONDERFUL time - my mom keeps saying that we need to go back there.

2. The only thing that I didn’t like was that they speak Catalan there, which is very very similar to Spanish, but just different enough that I was getting confused from time to time. However, my Spanish was better than I remembered it (the vocab anyways - the grammar, not so much), so that was exciting.

3. Right now we are on the cruise ship! It set sail about 2 hours ago (10PM Spanish time . . . 2PM EST). And of course, after settling our bags into our rooms and heading to dinner, the first thing that I did was check out the internet access ;-), bringing you my first international Thursday Thirteen! Wasn’t sure that would happen.

4. However, there is one teeny-tiny problem . . . wireless is $10 for 30 minutes!!!!!!!! RIDICULOUS. So, don’t be expecting too many updates in a timely fashion. I may write updates in Notepad and then post several at a time - might be the best way to do this.

5. I’m almost done reading a book that I started on the plane over (haven’t had too much time for reading yet - been sightseeing!), and I’m hoping to finish it tonight.

6. If I do finish the book, then I plan on releasing it tomorrow in Marseille, France. How cool will that be?!

7. A little nervous about tomorrow - since I was able to understand many many things via my Spanish in Barcelona, I haven’t really had the “I’m in another country and can’t speak the language” feeling. And tomorrow we’re going to France. The fact that I was able to get by with my Spanish in Barcelona was VERY comforting . . . we’ll see how this goes tomorrow.

8. The couple that we are seated with at our table is very, very chatty. Seem like nice people, but by the end of the meal, we were all tired, haha! Luckily we only eat one meal with them, and it’s at the end of the day after we’ve been doing stuff, so we’ll have something to talk about at least.

9. The casino is right next to the lounge that has Internet access. I keep hearing the ka-ching of slot machines. Stongly feeling the urge to waste all my quarters . . .

10. Please say prayers for Ben’s mother - she had a very difficult doctor’s appointment today, and I have yet to hear how it went.

11. And since I’m exhausted and have limited battery power, here are some quizzes :-). Will write soon ;-)!

Thirteen Things about LINDSEY

1. I am posting this a day late because my internet connection has been few and far between. So . . . pretend it’s Thursday.

2. Wednesday was my 22nd birthday . . . the first birthday of many that don’t have anything special attached to them, haha. When you’re 15, you get your permit. 16 - license. 17 - R-rated movies. 18 - you’re an adult . . . by the time you pass 21, there’s not a whole lot else to look up to, haha! But we had a great time.

3. The first thing that happened was we were supposed to go to Six Flags in New Jersey, but it rained so much that we decided not to do that - we might go tomorrow. So instead we went bowling, which was great fun - I broke 100 on all three games we played (if you’ve ever seen me bowl, you know that this is a big accomplishment).

4. Then we took the train in to New York City and met up with my best friend Stephanie! It has been so great to see her - I miss her when she’s up here! (This completes #36 on my 101 in 1001).

5. Then we all went out to this awesome little wine bar called Vintage. Stephanie is good friends with the guys who work there, so we had a great time. If you’re in NYC, go visit - Broadway between 93rd and 94th.

6. The next day (yesterday) I go to go with a couple of friends to the Museum of Modern Art (#41 on my 101 in 1001). It was amaaaazing. My favorite Picasso was there (Girl before a mirror), so of course I was in heaven. It was awesome.

7. For supper we ate at Serendipity 3. This is the resteraunt that they made the movie Serenditpity around. Everyone thinks it’s overrated because of the movie, but it’s one of my favorite places to go in New York. Last night was my third time eating there, and it won’t be my last. Get the Frrrozen Hot Chocolate . . . so worth it.

8. Then, after supper, Steph and I went to see the Cirque du Soleil show that is playing in New York, Corteo (#80 on my 101 in 1001). I am obsessed with Cirque du Soleil. My favorite has always been Quidam, but Corteo definitely has given it a run for its money. I’m gonna have give this some thought. UNBELIEVABLE. Sooo good.

9. Then we were supposed to go out last night, but we came back to change and were so tired that we fell asleep, haha. Oh well, the celebration had to end at some point ;-).

10. Right now I’m still in Stephanie’s apartment, but I am taking the train back to New Jersey at some point this evening. Tomorrow morning we will most likely go to Six Flags (since the weather will be better).

11. And then tomorrow night is our friend Matt’s graduation party. We’re staying at his house in New Jersey, and he’s having this huge graduation party that a ton of our friends are coming to. Which is funny, cause most of them are in the south right now. It’s going to be great fun!

12. Then I drive back to Winston-Salem on Sunday, and Monday is moving day! Ahhhh! So much going on, this is crazy busy!!!!

13. And a quiz ;)!

You Are Cookie Monster

Misunderstood as a primal monster, you’re a true hedonist with a huge sweet tooth. You are usually feeling: Hungry. Cookies are preferred, but you’ll eat anything if cookies aren’t around. You are famous for: Your slightly crazy eyes and usual way of speaking How you life your life: In the moment. “Me want COOKIE!”

I was changing the water for my fish last night, and Picasso accidentally jumped out of the net and onto the stove. I FREAKED OUT! I could have sworn he was gonna jump on one of the burners. And last night, once I got him back in the water, he barely swam, so I thought he would die, and I was really upset. But he seems to be fine today . . . phew!
