...remember my commitment to blog at least once a day? what happened?! sometimes i wish i could just think the words and it would end up in a blog, because then i'd be blogging all of the time.
and why do i care about the blog when i never really say anything? well, i miss writing. and i need the practice to improve. and, who knows, maybe one day all of this babbling can wind it's way into the great briana novel.

new adventures to new regions
today...oh today...
i experienced a first today after having to have a medical procedure done. the procedure itself was not really a problem, but the day of prep yesterday was terrible. i am very thankful that it's over...for now. i am also very thankful that even though i am so far away from my family, i have amazing friends who take good care of me during times of need. i'm a lucky kid.
but, in more exciting news, my wanderlust was beginning to get the best of me. i could feel that itch that always starts when it's been a while since i've traveled anywhere. it's such a longing feeling that starts deep down until it creeps into my brain. i end up searching books, magazines and travel sites until i'm able to find a destination that speaks to me. well, luckily, right as this feeling was hitting it's peak, carmen and i stumbled upon an AMAZING airfare sale to australia. $740 round trip from lax to sydney. what?! that is ridiculous...almost to the point of unbelievable. that was one week ago tomorrow. i am happy to report that yesterday, we bought tickets, and now we are seven months away from leaving for an adventure we'll never forget. i can't believe it. i am so excited!
