Cairo #1 :)

I am currently in the process of manifesting a trip to Cairo, Egypt. Of course, I intend to see the sights, but my strongest motivation to head to that part of the world is to finally see a man I've known for 6 years but have never seen face-to-face. Every so often, I will post a thought about this trip.

So I have started planning my trip to Cairo. My passport application is in and I am looking for the best prices for my plane ticket. I've been surfing the web looking for sights to see, other than the Sphinx and the pyramids, of course. I talk to my dear friend, Emad, at least once a week to see what he thinks of my ideas and to get whatever input he may have.

I have lists galore that I'm making steady progress in--lists of what to pack, lists of preparations I need to make, lists of things I need to buy. It's so exciting to be making this consistent progress because I know that when I've completed all these things, I'll be ready to go!

And it's all possible because I HAVE A ROOM FULL OF MONEY :)

Guitar Lady

I love guitar music, especially classical guitar. I know a couple people who've been able to teach themselves how to play, and I think that's so cool!

So I have found the perfect teacher for me; she's patient and happy and willing to let me make mistakes as well as explore different techniques in my playing. I see her once a week for an hour, and I always look forward to my time with her. This is not only because it's such a playful hour, but also because I love practicing throughout the week. I make advances quickly, and before I know it, I have gotten good enough to play in public!

It is so cool that I'm able to indulge more of my musical side, and all because I HAVE A ROOM FULL OF MONEY!

Back Again

Well, my friends, it's been over 2 months since I've been here, and I'm finally back. I've been into quite a bit of different things, but I'm ready to do some more to create my perfect life!
