It's all gone! I was on the phone with Mahesh from customer service for two hours but there's nothing that can be done. It's all gone! All of my college papers, all of my music, every cartoon that I drew at Tulane --- it's all been permanently deleted. Continuing to live life on the brink of an aneurysm can be stressful. Before my computer eliminated my college history and before I realized that I had no flight itinerary my week back in Greensboro was already pretty intense. But I had a breather this summer, a little time to slow down and relax. I didn't have time to study for the GRE, let alone take it, but I did have time to fall back in love with New Orleans. I was morbidly depressed to leave and ... read more

D and I are here in Miami melting away. We got here yesterday morning after a brief flight and fell asleep in the hotel. Our hotel is a nice - we're in the art deco district of south beach. In fact, they filmed parts of Miami Vice in our hotel! Oh..and before I forget, guess who we saw at the airport yesterday? The Black Eyed Peas!! Our celebrity moment. And I was pretty damn excited - we both love the BEP. Yesterday was a relaxing day - we walked around a bit, went to the beach, took some naps and had dinner at a cafe on ocean drive. Today we rode this great electric bus around south beach and did some shopping for last minute items for costa rica. Now we're off to find some shrimp ... read more

Fourth of July weekend is a good time to visit the Florida Panhandle, of course if there is no hurricane watch on the way. Luckily we managed to do it without getting any troubles. Starting from Atlanta at 10.15am with a Cobb County rental car, we drove through a busy traffic of Atlanta in the hot humid Georgian weather. There are two things I enjoy the most riding this rental car. First, air conditioning is running and kicking, unlike Ryan's red 97 Grand Am we were accustom to driving around Atlanta. Second, my iPod transmitter turns out to be a perfect tool to listen to good songs driving south at I-75 to Tallahassee, the capital of Florida. I was slightly disappointed when we had to drive through the Georgia/Florida border without stopping or taking pictures at ... read more

So I have decided to take advantage of a second trip to Romania to once more work with the Gypsy (Roma) people there. This time we will be taking 34 people. We will be spending 10 days in Northwest Romania (Transylvania)! I will also be taking every opportunity available to update this journal with our adventures in Eastern Europe. Stay tuned for more wonderful stories. We leave in 12 days. Amy :) ... read more
