I feel pretty proud of myself. I've been really organized lately... maybe it doesn't show in the condition of my apartment (Ha, I need some serious cleaning and organizing when it comes to that) but everything else is going so smoothly.
I finally got my half-off train ticket card today. Well, the actual ID card comes sometime within the next two weeks. But I can still travel on the infamous Swiss rail system for half price... which will save me so much money. I am going to head up to Zürich this weekend and if I can find a hostel (I'm still looking for one and waiting to hear back from some) I'm going to head down to the Swiss/Italian border and go to Lugano or Locarno. I'm probably going to spend a weekend in Genève and then another weekend, head to Basel. I am so excited to travel and experience so many things.
Anyway, I've booked my very first hotel stay ever. I feel pretty good about it. I booked my mother and I's stay in Paris! We're staying at the Hôtel D'Angleterre in the Latin quarter. It's the same hotel that Hemingway stayed in when he visited Paris. Anyway, I'm just proud of myself for being organized and booking this. I'm also in charge of scheduling our trip while in Paris and also while in Tuscany.
I seriously need to get my hair cut. I'm going to cut about 3 inches off and get it layered funky and what not. I should get a highlight and color soon but seeing as I want to save up for traveling and shopping, I'm going to have to put that off. I seriously need some decent conditioner, though. My hair is beginning to feel like straw. I'm over exaggerating, it doesn't actually feel like straw. But it's dry even though I don't wash it every day. That's about it.
