Oh now we're talking trips while in college?

mexico, venezuela, spain, france, italy

Total cost for all? 
summer study mex:  $100 plane ticket, $450 party, 6 hours of credit (free on scholarship)
venezuela: $350 plane ticket, free room and board at friend's, $600 on gifts and fun over 1 month
spain/france/italy:  plane ticket/hotel/bussing/sight seeing tours $450, booze and fun $400

total under $2500   

What year did you go? Pre chavez?

No, I went after "the revolution."  I was in Maracaibo for most of it, but I went to Caracas too.  Didn't do much sight-seeing in Caracas, but no one gave a crap I was American.

Thought an econ final was later in the day and completely missed it.  Sweet talked the prof. with suggestive body language and verbalization until they let me take the final later and I totally got a B in the class 

Who was the econ prof?

Some lady part timer.  Very small timey.  Not one of the names.  Don't remember her exact name but would recall it if you said it. 

Damn.

Won a scholarship to study abroad in Germany for a year.  Didn't do any kind of real work over there, except for writing a paper on why the last chapter of Gullivers Travels was bullocks.  Oh yeah, and took some ESL type classes for dumbass foreigners.  Other than that, drank pretty much non-stop for a year.  Visited all over the country.  Took holiday to Barcelona.  Pretty elite experience, all the way around.

(while in Prague<- elite as shazbot!)

Study abroad is actually a pretty good response to this topic.  Or stories from traveling around Europe after you finish your semester abroad...   

Don't get the Prague pakr's started. OMG! FRIED CHEESE ON BREAD DRUNK METROS AMAZING  !

goddammit fried cheese was my LIFE.

Oh my lord... amazing.

Totally bit into one and mayo squirted out the bottom and on my jacket.  was so worth it.

I wish I would have studied abroad.  I imagine that I would have been nailing chicks left and right.  Like Amanda Knox sans murder.

most of the time to drunk to recall, but have lead rustys in a couple K-S-U's on top of the bar during ku-kstate games, and once at BWW as well.
