The months of June, July, and August were followed by "what to dos..." and "where to gos..." but I, having already put much more than my 2 cents in, developed a perfect strategy for blocking out the repetitive questions, I call it "screw it, just enjoy."
And that is precisely what I was thinking as I spent the days learning to ride carriages and every card game known to man,
going swimming in the river,
attempting to experience a church service (which will never happen again by the way) and exploiting my dad for his awesome driving skills.
While the nights and small hours of the morning were spent in discos,
at my neighbor's house, at our village's bar or just driving around aimlessly, followed by sneaking in as quietly as a ninja until a much ninja-er frog scared the crap out of me, followed by a very noisy anti-alibi.

The Root Of All In/Decision
So at this point, you may be wondering, how exactly did I get here? What happened? Isn't this counterproductive?
And I have the answers to all of those questions. Except maybe the last one :D
So, come round a sunny Boulder afternoon in May, I walked through the door of our house, expecting to eat dinner, finish my homework at record speeds and surf the net until my eyes turned red, like any other day. But that day, you can imagine, was quite special, because why else would I bore you with these details?
After that rather long process of thinking of my very busy and demanding schedule, I was sat down by my parents who looked like they were trying to hold something in so bad, that their heads might implode.
Greeted by my look of confusion, they got to the point, as they usually do.
"Do you think Boulder's really the place for us?" Blurted my father, who looked like a kid hyped up on Halloween candy.
Panic set in, 'do I like it here?' 'do I want to leave?' 'what are you afraid of?' 'weren't you the one who brought this up a few months ago?' 'where are we going?'
As you can see, it didn't take too many degrees of separation from "what?!?" to "where to!!" As I was always ready for change and something new. Although this shouldn't be confused with a short attention span, I mean, I am writing a pretty long blog pos- ooh! loook! a squirrel!
Where was I? Oh yes, indeed. You can imagine my parents were relieved that I had no problem with it, and it was probably rather confusing that I was jumping for joy. But all in all, a successful day.
The rest of May passed by excruciatingly slowly, even though I tried to pass the time with zombie pranks and trying to convince my friend to streak through the school with me.
As the end of school came about, we packed up our caboose and headed for Canada, where we intended to live. Well as you've probably logically deduced by now, we're a long way from Canada. So what happened in between? A plan to go on a "summer vacation" to the old country.

We're Definitely Not In Boulder Anymore...
Location! Location! Location!
Or dare I say, relocation?
What is this? The 4th time already?
Hello to the very confused people who have been witnesses to my life, I bet you're thinking "not this again..." but yes, indeed, I have a new address, city, country and continent. Where exactly, you may ask? My very own Roma...nia.
It seems that life has led me to believe that you must be in the eye of the storm to stop it from destroying everything in its path. Or as the generations of women in my family before me would so adequately put it "You are a teaspoon, dipping yourself into crap."
Don't they seem optimistic.
In any case, this is me, alerting you, that I'm being very active in my mission of taming the storm.
Stay awesome, readers!
