some changes, plus scotland

so....
what used to be love/hate is going to become a less structured type blog that won't be updated daily. my first attempts at blogging went badly as far as consistency, after only a few days i gave up on the "daily" aspect of it. this is my second try, and it won't be an everyday thing.

I've decided that one of the countries I want to visit most is Scotland, and to justify this decision here are:
10 REASONS TO LOVE SCOTLAND
(not in any particular order)
  1. The accent.
  2. The landscape.
  3. Ewan McGregor.
  4. The long list of Scottish inventions, including the waterproof macintosh (raincoat), the fountain pen, and criminal fingerprinting.
  5. Belle & Sebastian and Franz Ferdinand.
  6. Hogwarts.
  7. Bagpipes.
  8. Scotland's new slogan, with a 12.5 thousand pound price tag, is "Welcome to Scotland."
  9. Only 130 of its 790 islands are inhabited.
  10. Its official animal is the unicorn."Nemo Me Impune Lacessit" means, basically, "None provoke me unpunished" or "No one attacks me and gets away with it."
Extra Love:
  • Yeondoo Jung's photos from his Wonderland collection are based on the drawings of little kids.
  • chalk
  • These stories, including "Harry Potter and the Big Funnel"
