Chain Letter Thingamajig
I have been tagged by Miss Lawless - so here it goes:
1. A Place You've Visited and Your Favorite Thing there
Oklahoma - As you can read in my post put up after my visit... I loved the whole way of life down there. The people, the food, the land, the monastery, pretty much everything about it. =)
2. A Country You'd Like to Visit and Why
Well, I am going to be studying abroad in Austria this upcoming Spring and will be staying a month after I gradutate to bike around Europe, so this question has been on my mind a lot recently. =) Hmmm.... now the question limits me to only one of the countries that I'm *going* to visit. I'm really looking forward to going to Italy and especially Assisi and Rome. When I have asked people who have traveled Europe where their own single favorite place is, many have said that Assisi was their very favorite. So I guess you could say I'm looking forward to seeing this marvelous medieval town, which BTW is where my patron saint (Francis) was from.
3. A Place From History You'd Like to Visit and Why
Jerusalem (before its destruction) - Though I am still trying to work it out so I can go there in the Spring which would be beyond cool.
4. A Place You Know a Lot About
Depends on what you mean by knowing a lot about it... as in geography or history? Geographically speaking I know the northwest suburbs better than anywhere else. Historically, I don't know that I could single out one place that I know a lot about.
5. A Place You'd Like to Learn More About
Russia... after reading Anna Karenina (which BTW was one of *the* best books I have ever read) I really would like to learn more about the Russian people and their country.
6. A Fictional Place You'd Like to Visit
Hands down Valinor from the Silmarillion.
Five things in our freezer:
1. No freezer here at school so... nothing.
Five things in my closet
1. Clothes
2. Clothes
3. Clothes
4. Belts
5. Tie
Five things in my car
1. No car and no family car so again, nothing.
Five interesting things in my backpack (laptop bag in this case):
1. Heavenwards Prayer Book
2. Cards
3. The Tags to some winter gloves I bought awhile ago
4. Notecards
5. A Receipt from Coca-Cola vendors from when I was Student Government president.
