I used to do these things all the time back in high school. And my ex-girlfriend from then had just posted one on her myspace. So I filled it out in the spirit of nostalgia. Then I thought that it would make a good introduction, since I felt kinda bad about never posting one in here. So...

Your Most Missed Memory: there was this little secluded swimming hole on Sugar Creek that my dad used to take me and my sister to. It got turned into a park/walking trail in the last few years and is a shadow of it’s former self. I miss the times when it was an adventure getting there.

Amsterdam is insane... they have 2 bikes a person! In America almost no one rides bikes! And the little rooms with the girls on every side of the tiny walkways....

I'd love to go to all those places. I'm American though so my money is nothing in Europe so... I'll have to wait a while.

I'm american too. I saved up 8000 dollars to go to Europe, then all of the sudden I get there and i only have 6000. 4000 in england. I was all, "WTF?"

the bikes in amsterdam are insane. bicyclists first, pedestrians second, people in cars third. and every street corner has 50 - 75 bikes chained up. insane.

i was in amsterdam for 9 days. or 10. or maybe 8. i always forget. :p
