Electric Lina Land

Me Summer 2008 partying in the Flexxx bathrooms

I am obsessed. Obsessed with getting out of here. I can't get Sweden out of my head. I want to woof (http://www.wwoof.org/) there so badly. Disappear into the Nordic woods and just watch a cow chew cud. But her I am. NOT studying for Macroeconomics, the night before my 22nd birthday. I'd rather be looking at Urban Outfitters clothes, or doing laundry. Or going to the Fair with Kiel! I just want to pet the goats!
But yes, the point of this post is I'm 22 and I've been doing what people have been telling me to do for a while now. It's time I follow my goddamn dreams. And dream number one is woof in Sweden.The land of Alexander Skarsgards and Swedish fish. Supposedly the people are super nice and the sense of humor is goofy. Mayhaps I'll fit in?
Who knows, who knows.
So this will be a blog of my successes and my failures in trying to achieve what I want to do with my life. Somehow I'll have to balance my want for financial stability and a yuppyhipster life with my need to be with nature. Woofing will be my step towards nature. Well, and I guess grad school will be my step towards a yuppie hipster life in Europe....
