<p>anyone sick and tired of people saying that they “want to have fun”? </p>

<p>NEWSFLASH: SO DOES EVERYONE ELSE, THINK OF SOMETHING ELSE TO SAY</p>

<p>in other news: I want to own my own coffee shop and have it turn into a indie rock concert hub</p>

Oh Shi-</p>

23

<p>…live ?</p>

24

<p>Get married. I don’t want to die alone. That’d be so effing tragic.</p>

<p>Die.</p>

<p>The first death would be a physical death, the second a death of a different sort.
I see it as ensuring my memory lives on through my accomplishments.
Or perhaps I’ve just had too little sleep.</p>

27

<p>–Write a novel
–Have a family
–Backpack through Europe
–Backpack through Australia
–Have a travel column in The NYT or Washington Post
–Live in Bosnia
–Live in DC
–Have a Mini Cooper</p>

28

<p>–Meet someone famous. And become friends with them.</p>

<p>Don’t underestimate the power of connections, my friend.</p>

29

<p>–Peace Corps</p>

<p>or</p>

<p>–Fulbright</p>

<p>Mine is similar. I’d like to open up a bookstore with a coffee shop and live music every night.</p>

<p>Own a cute bunny, I never had a pet in my life.</p>

<p>And I hope I can take my mom to Hong Kong. She hasn’t been there since she moved to the US at 12.</p>

<p>Change someone’s life for the better by volunteering. I’m so caught up with my own problems now so I hope I can someday focus my attention on people who really need it.</p>

31

<p>I want to visit Japan; I just love the culture!</p>

32

<p>Martha: Are you Bosnian? I’m Croatian, which is really similar.</p>

33

<p>Sky dive…</p>

34

<p>No, I’m not Bosnian–I just have a need to see Sarajevo. And Zagreb :).</p>

35

<p>But. Why? Not that it’s a bad thing to have a need for. I just haven’t met many people who even know where Sarajevo is.</p>

36

<p>I’ve always loved Central/Eastern Europe, the way some people love China, I guess, and I’ve done some reading. Other than that, I really don’t know why.</p>

37

<p>i read this diary written by a girl in sarajevo when i was younger…it was really interesting, but all of the civil unrest didn’t exactly make it seem a super appealing place to live…</p>

<p>oh, martha.</p>

38

<p>I’m drawn to it. I mean, I can only see myself visiting France if they start rioting again.</p>

39

<p>haha yeah, head to the dominican republic and make a pit stop in kashmir while you’re at it.</p>

<p>by the way, “kashmir” is the best led zeppelin song ever.</p>

40

<p>Yep, and Chechnya, and Afghanistan, and Western Sahara, and…</p>
