Washington D.C.

2 weeks from today…

WhiteHouse

I will be in Washington, DC.
For the first time.
Oh my goodness- is this not just the semester of checking off the bucket list?

To Do List:

1.  Midterms.  4 tests, 1 project, and many of hours thinking.
2. Accept that it might be cold.  Today Waco hit 77 degrees and DC is teetering at a wonderful 45 degrees (I just got DC its own weather widget and will obsessively check it).
3. Learn how to use my camera.  I bought the biggest distraction imaginable early this semester: my very own SLR. Am I one of those people that still takes weak pictures? Yes.  But this will change, very very soon.
4. Read.  Given #1, this probably won’t happen, but I’d like to read about every place I’m going to visit– you know, the history and interesting facts.  Maybe there’s a DC for Dummies book.  I shall check.
5.  Not think about this trip too much.

I’m stoked. Ahh, focus Caroline.

  1. The picture is great, just perfect. I remember Washington DC as a kid. My brother and I raced to the top of the Washington Monument. Today access is probably restricted do to the war on terror.

    Have fun and good luck on your pre-visit study
