I hope I someday get to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. I find Christ the Redeemer so haunting and beautiful.

"study" abroad

Some of my classmates on a very early subway ride home after a night of karaoke... we didn't do this every night.


Upon my recent return from a month in Japan, I'm recalling this hilarious story about what people really do on "study" abroad programs from The Onion. While I had a lot of fantastically fun times, my intense photography program was far from this leisurely, and it's a little crude, but it's still worth a giggle. (And really, oftentimes, not far from accurate.)
