Procrastination is my greatest enemy.

I am the worst procrastinator in the world. In college I once turned in a paper at a final that was due in the middle of the semester.

Think that's bad? I once traveled around the world and told my friends before I left that I would create a blog and update it with all the cool stuff happening along the way. Six months later I'm back at home and finally writing the first blog post.

This is a picture of a sad fat statue in Zagreb Croatia. It has absolutely nothing to do with procrastination, and its only related to this blog post because I mentioned earlier that I went around the world (now you know one place I stopped).

I think being hungover helps my motivation sometimes, though usually it just leads to me laying around on the couch watching bad TV. Coincidentally that's something I did a lot in Zagreb at Hobo Bear Hostel.

Our merriment was less than appreciated by those in the household who had to attend work in the wee hours of the morning, but we did not let anything stand in our way of enjoying our last day on Mount Desert Island. We ate a hearty breakfast and were out the door and on our way to our days first destination, Champlain Mountain, for the Precipice trail climb. I Pulled over to snap a few pictures before we arrived at our destination, the foot of the steeply sloping trail to the top of the mou

October 27, 2009 Tears welled up in my eyes, as I spoke a single drop of moisture made its way down my face ‘Tricia I don’t know why this is happening.’ My big sister was positive and resolute and she had surely been through similar emotions catching her first flight out of the country. Out of the people I had called while attempting to talk over my shaky feelings about my flight across the Atlantic, I think she was the best equipped person to make me feel better. I had wondered around Grand Central Station trying to find food after my friends left and I felt positive and upbeat that I was on my own and ready to face a new adventure. I made my way to JFK airport to catch my flight. I had already made myself at home in the terminal, sitting next to a power supply so I could type a future blog entry on my laptop. I managed to detail the previous nights drinking before I started to think about my friends and my family that I was leaving behind in the country I had known for my twenty-
