    Default Where in the world?

    For a web design project at school, I have to pick a destination for my dream vacation. I chose Kyoto, Japan, the original capital of Japan, during the spring when the cherry blossoms will be in bloom.

    So I was wondering: if you could pick anywhere to go in the whole world, where would it be and why?

    I was hoping for a Carmen Sandiago themed thread....I was sadly mistaken.



    But I would go anywhere that's warm and not Ohio. Probably Japan.

    Kharkiv, Ukraine. Not just because of my fascination with mine adoptive mother country--Kharkiv primarily a Russian-speaking city, not Ukrainian, but also so I could get a chance to see Traff!c and/or ТонкаяКраснаяНит play live. The Halifax music scene doesn't interest me since the breakup of Arlibido and the unexplained disappearance of Shyne Factory, but the Kharkiv scene is almost as good, just...very different.

    Vancouver, Canada.
    You hold my heart in your manly hands I wanna feel the throb of your handsome gland. I wanna hold you tight like a newborn kitten, against my flesh like a cashmere mitten. Tickly tick, I'm makin' skin bump heaven and all the way down it's lookin' cleanly shaven. Prickety pricks, it's stubble on stubble I better slow down or I'm in real trouble. Want you, touch you, feel you, taste you! Knick knack whacky whack 'till I see the man stew. spin you around let me see that hole! I'm a tunnelin' in a like a short hair mole. Once I'm inside I'm gonna leave a trace, half in there and half on that face! One finger, two finger, there fingers gone! Mano a mano I love you John!

    Capital of the Universe, New York City!

    That, or Chan Chan. Or Easter Island.

    Japan or Maui. Japan for reasons already mentioned, and Maui because it's soooo beautiful...My family and I have gone three times already, but it never gets old. The weather is always perfect, not a cloud in the sky, the water is pure blue...

    *Fun fact!* Final Fantasy VIII is my summer game. Summer rolls around, and I get an unbearable urge to play it, and I simply cannot play it in the winter. In Maui, I would listen to the in game music as I laid in the sun (shut up) and drift between conscious and unconscious. Now every time I think about anything FFVIII, I feel sunny and happy inside */Fun fact!*

    Anyone who says sunshine brings happiness has never danced in the rain.

    Yeah, but I tried telling that to some of my friends (most of them gamer friends because I thought they'd understand) and I got blank looks and statements of "......Wow."

    Thank you though, AK, for agreeing with me
