As many of you know, and some of you do not, I am turning 20 this summer, leaving behind my last year of teenagehood and the stupid mistakes that can only be blamed on being a dumb teenager and emerging from my cocoon as a "Young Adult."*
First of all....say whaaat? I've been reading those "young adult" coming of age novels since I was in middle school and none of them featured anyone above the age of 16. And if the last two years at college have taught me anything, it's that we're all still growing, all the time. You can be 18 or 27 or 60 years old with the heart of a child, and still make the most reckless, most stupid mistakes, and have the most beautiful adventures.
I won't say I haven't had my share of adventures in the past, but, after all, I am leaving, nay, building upon a whole two decades of my life lived! And why not celebrate with a bang?
I'm leaving on May 28th, which brings me to the project of the summer: The Summer of 20. I've never been to Greece before and pretty much have no idea what to expect when I get there. Of course, I will be working during the week, but I've got 8 weekends to kill. So, I am looking for a list of 20 things to do in Greece. Not 20 purely tourist things (yes, I plan on going to Delphi and Santorini) but things that I wouldn't think of doing. My goal over the summer is to finish the list and have some awesome stories to tell on the way (and get me a blog bear, but more on that later). I am open to any and all suggestions, so, my friends, please make them.
That's all for now. First day back in LA and I am going to have a serious food fest. NOM.
Cheers,
Angela
