- Ireland - I'm part Irish and even have an Irish name. (First, middle, and last!) My great-grandfather on my Dad's side immigrated through Ellis Island
- Philippines - I'm also half Filipino. I really want to visit someday. My mom lived there for about 20 years when she was younger.
- England - I want to visit King's Cross station and see Platform 9 3/4 :) Also, I love accents. And, I hear they have good cafes there as well.
- Singapore - One my friends is from there and it sounds like a very interesting place to visit.
- Hong Kong - Another Asian country I would like to experience
- Italy - this would be amazing! I'd like to sip wine and see the cathedrals.

- Joey from Dawson's Creek. She was the girl who was always the friend. She's smart, funny, and very genuine. On my good days I like to think I'm all of those things.
- Vanessa from Gossip Girl. She's the girl on the outside. She is surrounded by people who live the fast and rich life, but she manages to get by with her sense of humor and intelligence.
- Peyton from One Tree Hill (admittedly I stopped watching this show after the 2nd or 3rd season when I think it got way too soap opera-y.) Peyton has a dark side to her that I can relate to. On the flip side, she also truly cares about other people.
- Clarissa from Clarissa Explains It All. A long time ago, but Clarissa was a know-it-all in a good way.

- Start wearing my hair down (I'm always tying it up, it's a self-conscious thing)
- Remember to floss every day (I usually make brushing my teeth a priority, but flossing is sometimes forgotten)
- Stop eating Pizza and Burgers so much. Limit to maybe once a week? That's pretty good for a college student
- Go to the FitRec and work out at least 2 times a week (Ideally I want to go 5 days a week, but 2 is a start)
- Keep a good skin routine (I need to figure out something that works and stick with it, instead of switching things up all the time)
- Drink water (I'm one of those people who strangely hates water unless I'm working out)
- Keep money on my Charlie Card (I'm always letting it get down below the cost for one fare, which means every time I go out ...

- Grab a Spanish Latte at that coffee shop on Newbury St. whose name I can't remember
- Look at all the clothing in the stores on Newbury St. and wish that I could afford them
- Go on the Swan Boats
- Take a Duck Tour
- See a play (I love musicals but straight plays are great too

- Work out for 30 min on the elliptical

Some memorable ones: The Elephant Sex Lady (She talked to us about Elephants and their sex lives for reasons I do not understand), The Wolf (we had a real live wolf walk around our auditorium), Underground Rap (what??), E. Roper's famous bathroom story, and the one conservative lady that argued with my science teacher over Bush's politics and the war for a good 40 min.
