Why are passports so bloody expensive in the US by the way? Here it's around 50 euros. Around 90 dollars maybe? I'm not sure what the exchange rate is at the moment. Oh, but should you be whisked off by someone, don't go to Monte Carlo. Come visit me!
The exchange isn't that bad. It's around $75-80.

I'm listening to "Place Among the Stones" now. Great. And recently I uploaded some classical music to my Mum's computer- to my own user account. Oh, now it started to play Green Day's American Idiot. My, this rocks... I guess I have a pretty wide taste when it comes to music. Let's see... I have on this PC...

Green Day, Delta Goodrem, Nightwish (new), "Angel" by Judas Priest, Apocalyptica (Finnish band), Anna Abreu (if someone don't know she's a Finnish singer, ranked 2nd in Finland's Idols), Celtic music from Celtic Circle 2, The Rasmus and Uniklubi (Finnish bands again), some classical, season- related music. And of course "One Winged Angel" from Final Fantasy! However, I would have liked to upload some music by Poets of the Fall, but strangely enough this PC says it's death metal- which it certainly isn't.

Also, Windows Media Player calls this classical music something done by White Snake! It shows totally wrong names for songs and performers.

That's it I think.

I can show you our wonderful scenery, beautiful flowerfields, the forests and heatherplains and the North Sea or the inner 'sea' and lakes etc.
You can cycle from forest to heatherplain to lake in one day if you want or stay in one of them. All just nature, some other people on bikes, but mostly just nature you see.
There are deer, boars, sheep and 'medieval' cows roaming those places.

The small villages have character and the open air musea are fun for adults and kids. I remember making nails with a hammer on a hot piece of iron and playing old Dutch games, cycling on old fashion bikes, etc.

I love this country, despite all the things I don't like or even hate about it.
I'm sure I'd love it, but I live in a small village where we have a village smith. And a short bike ride to museums with quill pens and wooden toys to use, and a short train ride to great art by Rodin and Botticelli, or a slightly longer train ride to NYC.

I would be ticked pink to go on a nice ride with Mari, or to see Gwai at the Bird and Brat. But I'd be just as happy to do that at a state park, or the Denny's down the road. Places are nice...some of them are very nice. I loved going back to Mesa Verde last year, and I'd love to do it again. But my interesting conversations with some folk at the Four Corners, and my visits with friends (who I met on-line) were far more important than the backdrop.

Someday, maybe I won't be busy, and I'll hit the lottery. I doubt that I'll be gadding off to the Taj Mahal or the Great Wall, even then. Buy a sheepfarm and hire someone to trim my hedges, probably.

(Pssst, Mari, I know. But I wasn't naming my favorite song. Just noted what my taste includes. Does it really have to be that accurate?)

Sis, I don't care. I still think you have to come and see me in my natural habitat so to speak
Can we cuddle now? ^_^
Oh, and how is the play coming along? Did you suffer from the heat a lot?

Noble, in your last post you said you wanted to share something, I didn't watch it because I'm listening to music already, but I assumed it was a song, so that is why I referred you to the song thread

Hiya Sane!
I went to the pool yesterday. Do you think I got a bit of a tan? *twirls around*

*And Sane beats him to the punch and goes ballistic on the pesky fang having nuisance. Finishes the beast off and kicks GW in the bottom for allowing this oversite to happen in his monster guarding patrol*

Nope, no sunburn. I already had some colour on me and I wasn't in the pool for long. Chlorides and all
Hehe, you make me want to wear my pretty dress so my skirt will twirl along nicely ^_^ Whiiieeeeh! *huggles Sane*
So how are you going to enjoy the summery weather?

Vampire, GW, no biting or staking in here please.

Gw apologises most profoundly to Sane for his overlooking the presens of the SK's, and promises to more alert from now on.

Hey, just finished a project. I'll have to take and upload pictures.

It's ridiculously cute.

Oof. This study abroad is intense.

Art and Architecture is amazing and exhausting. Our professor is some unholy mix of Aragorn and John Cleese. He can walk for hours and hours in too hot weather while talking almost non-stop and never (that I've seen) taking a drink of water. Which unfortunately means that he laughs when we can't. But we've seen massive amounts of pretty and significant buildings in his class so it's all good. Our Contemporary Britain professor needs to read books on tape and the Shakespeare class isn't bad either. It's just a lot to cram into a month plus day and weekend trips and touristy stuff. I may be slightly dead when I get back to Seattle.

But my homestay people have an entire cupboard just for tea, so it's all good.

*once Mari has a twirlable dress on, Sane galantly invites her to dance; which they do most well, and Mari gets to spin around with her skirt twirling happily along*

Wheee! I'm having fun; did a major overhaul/clean/repair on the house and back yard, also rebuilding the dog run. Have to stop though, going to go to a movie.
