Drab as a fool, aloof as a bard!

Next school year, I will be deferring my admission to Reed College in Portland, OR, and traveling to New Zealand. In New Zealand, I hope to bicycle-tour my way around the beautiful countryside, and to become a migrant worker, picking apples and kiwis, working in vineyards, the like. I hope to update this blog semi-regularly, although I'm not so sure how that'll work out. Pictures and recounts of adventures will most likely find their way up here, as a way for all of you to track my escapades and travels.
At the moment, I have not considered my route a great deal, and am slowly piecing together a list of things that I will need to gather before my epic quest for...what exactly am I questing for, anyways?! I think I will be leaving around the same time as all the rest of my classmates head off to their respective colleges, some time in late August or early September. I may update this as further developments occur, or I may not. Just remember this: As soon as you're not looking at my blog, it is both updated and not-updated at the same time. I guess the only way to know for sure if there is anything new here is to check back frequently. Or subscribe to the Atom feed.
