Participate in La Tomatina


You know the typical food fight scene in movies or shows: -someone throws something at someone, it hits someone else, so that someone else gets mad, trows food back, but it doesnt hit the person that hit them, and then the line -- "FOOD FIGHT!!!" comes in and the cafeteria bursts into chaos.- This, is exactly what ive wanted to experience since i was about 5 and saw it on Disneychannel. Being that my middleschool AND highschool are abnormal and super small, its not like the average school. We only have about 150 students per grrade, and we have no cafeteria, we have outside sitting areas with tables/benches. Thats not really quite the same as on tv, which kinda sucks (my school also doesnt have lockers, and is only basically 1 or 2 main buildings and a bungalo) so its not a good setting for a food fight.
     when i was looking up other peoples pucket list though, i came across, i guess you could say "adult-version," of a food fight: La Tomatina. Difference being, its all tomatoes, its a PUBLIC thing, its in Spain, and you cant get in trouble for it ;D
     Now THAT sounds cool! So its totally something i have to do when im older, i must participate in this annual tomato-throwing festival in Spain.

Visit Luxembourg

A person from Luxembourg viewed my blog.. I didn't even know Luxembourg was a place! It wasn't visible on the little map either, so i googled it x) Apparently its a little country in between France, Belgium, and Germany. I's official languages: French, German, and Luxembourgish. <-- Its such a strange name, not even Blogger recognized it! It had the little red underline as if i misspelled it.
According to Wikipedia: Luxembourg is one of the smallest countries in Europe, and ranked 179th in size of all the 194 independent countries of the world; the country is about 2,586 square kilometres (998 sq mi) in size, and measures 82 km (51 mi) long and 57 km (35 mi) wide.
Thats so tiny!! You could literally drive through the country in an hour -_- ...I absolutely HAVE to go now! :D
