Mes Rêves

There are 21 regions in France.

I turned 21 in December.

Disneyland Paris will celebrate its 21st anniversary in April -- yeah, Disneyland Paris and I are the same age, nbd.

Anyway, it seemed only fitting that I have 21 Study Abroad Goals.

I've spent the past month trying to finalize this list. I've changed it, re-ordered it, reverted back to the original order, and finally managed to finish the list. However, I'm afraid that if I don't tell anyone about mes rêves, I'll just keep changing them and never actually finish.

21 Things To Do Before I Return to the States (in it's *mostly* original order):

  1. See the Saône River flowing North
  2. Visit the Museo Nazionale del Cinema in Torino
  3. Take a picture with every cathedral built before the 18th century in Lyon
  4. See Les Miserables at a French Cinema
  5. Make a wish on the star at Notre Dame in Paris
  6. Try 5 different types of bread at 5 different boulangeries in one day
  7. Eat gelato at the Roman Amphitheaters
  8. Visit the cliffs of Normandy
  9. SCUBA dive at a WWII wreck site
  10. Visit the Musée Miniature et Cinéma
  11. Walk to the top of Fourvière (and make it to the church)
  12. Visit the Geneva Temple
  13. Visit the Roman Coliseum
  14. Finish a book in French
  15. Order something at a store correctly and understand everything they say
  16. See the Musical Fountain Show at Versailles
  17. Visit a significant movie site of a movie filmed in Europe (I'm not really sure what this means, but I think I'll know it when I see it)
  18. Visit the Count of Monte Cristo Chateau in If
  19. Tour a castle
  20. Visit the free zoo at the Parc de la Tête d'Or
  21. Ride the Ferris Wheel in Place Bellecour

And if you're wondering what I'm doing up at 4:45 in the morning, it's just that I haven't gone to bed yet. I accidentally took a nap from 6:00 - 9:30 and when I woke up I kept thinking of important things I needed to do. The good news is that I have now cleaned my room, finished some work, and planned all of my trips. The bad news is it is 4:45 in the morning and I still haven't gone to bed...
