Here we go again...

So yes, the one and only James Beck is at it again. Summer has hit me and I've decided to take a trip outside of the confines of North America. One week adventure in Spain. Currently I'm in in NYC awaiting for tomorrow when I embark on the only 7 hour flight to Madrid, where a 2 hour train ride awaits me to Plasencia. I'm REALLY excited because if you remember from before my weird obsession with public transportation, I get to take their subway system to the train station then the train to Plasencia. Now as the big day awaits me, I have a few of thoughts... Here they go:

1. I wish I would have done those Spanish worksheets I bought over Christmas break.

2. I wish I would have talked to Luci in Spanish on a regular basis.

3. I wish I would have continued watching TV in Spanish.

4. Special shout out to Erica Alexis, this is another attempt to try to get on your level.

5. Special shout out to Gina Frieden and Heather Smith for allowing me to graduate

6. Shout out to the silly academic system for not having people go to school in the summer

7. Another shout out to the two jobs that didn't want me to interview, because interviewing for those jobs would have run a risk of keeping me away from this trip.

8. Special shout out to my hosts around the world, without them this trip wouldn't have been possible.
