In three weeks I bummed around, was a tourist guide, was a parent to my parent, saw close to 30 movies, got my first-ever speeding ticket, saw the Amish, paid back a friend, and befriended a friendly cow.
I have learnt:
+ that I throw like a girl (I am big enough to admit this, Dian)
+ that listening to my favorite tunes makes me speed (Carry On My Wayward Son by Kansas; the fine was $167.50)
+ that I apparently like cleaning and am quite okay with the idea of a surarumah
+ that cows are cute (or atleast they can be)
+ that US highways are quite confusing (an Interstate route can be a highway, yet a highway isn't necessarily an Interstate?)
+ that speeding tickets can be a bitch (I could've gotten a lovely camel coat from Banana Republic with that money)
+ that I love Pittsburgh despite all its shortcomings
+ that I don't quite like weed
+ that stand up comedy can be quite funny
