*looks up exchange rate* That's about...$1700 or so. Huh, why would it be so much cheaper the other way?

*shrugs* Americans don't like to fly? Your fuel prices haven't jumped as much as our little island nation's?

Do I look like the type of person who understands the economic logic between fare differences?

Ooh! I'm jealous, I've never been on a cruise. :) Where is it going?

Pacific islands. Fiji (Vanuatu), Champagne Isle, um... a couple others. It's the one I went on last year with Mum. Mum was going to take me and mark, but there were complications with OAOASH, and Mark tried to get Dad in on it, and it just backfired on him - she just took me. This year is basically a guilt trip since he didn't get to go last year.

But, yeah. If I want to come, I have to pay for my own ticket. I've got $1000 saved so far, and it's all due in September, so... *cringes* Yeah, not spending. Trying hard not to spend.

By which time I will be living somewhere cheaper to fly to, hopefully.

Fingers crossed. *g*

I looked up international internships, too. Why are they all unpaid? *eyes her student loan balance*

Because they suck?

I'm watching a West Wing rerun. The President is tormenting Mandy with the sex ed report. "I won't say that word." *snicker*
