Migration

I am having the urge to migrate.

We all know I am way to big of a wuss to ever actually relocate somewhere. But it would be nice to go to Europe. I would stay in a cottage by the sea all by myself. I would go on long walks along the shore to find seashells, ride a horse, plant flowers, read books by firelight, and go to the local market to buy ingredients for stew and cupcakes.

Preferably the sea would be the Mediterranean, the horse would be a mellow with a gray coat to match, the flowers would be red roses, my bed would be near the fire, the library would be full of fantasy, the stew would have beef and potatoes only, and the cupcakes would be chocolate.

My last preference is for my getaway to be Shell Cottage, but the one from my head doesn't exist. Sadly, the movie's version was not up to my imagination's par and Google Images failed me too. My description wouldn't do it justice, but let me tell you something- it's the cutest house I've ever seen.

Kicking Against the Pricks

These are just some of my favorite songs telling the current story of my life.

Arcade Fire- We Used to Wait: http://www.thewildernessdowntown.com/. This is a really awesome music video too.

Adele- Rolling in the Deep: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rYEDA3JcQqw.

Bishop Allen- The News From Your Bed: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fw4AmQSFKLU.

Arcade Fire- City With No Children: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9riPB-OR0nU.

I want to escape. Here are all of the ideas I could think of. England, it looks like a Jane Austen novel and is so gorgeous.

I have actually been here, on this very bridge. Florence, Italy. My favorite Italian city.

Hogwarts. No explanation needed.

Isengard. Because that's where they are taking the hobbits.

The Aurora in Alaska. I want to see this someday.

The coast of the Mediterranean Sea in Italy. I have been somewhere similar, and it was easily the most magical and unreal evening ever. Romantic, but without a man.

Paris; seeing the Eiffel Tower and the Louvre are definitely on my bucket list.

Japan.

Switzerland; if this doesn't look like Rohan I don't know what does.

South Africa, apparently, even though I didn't know they had zebras there. I want to go to South Africa but that is the only part of Africa I will ever visit. The zebras and elephants won't lure me.

Rivendale. Again, no explanation needed.
