Title: Rob goes to Australia
Post by: The Riddler on March 04, 2009, 11:48:48 PM
Alrighty everyone.

In light of all the stupid poop that's going on in my life right now, I've decided to lighten up my year a little.

I really, really want to go to Australia this summer. Ever since I was in 2nd grade I've wanted to go.

I'm gonna be saving up like crazy, since there's nothing I really need right now or will need until the summer, and hopefully I'll have enough saved to go by then.

I've already talked to my friend Emma about it (she lives out there with some of my other friends) and she's gonna let me stay with her.

If I were to open up a pay pal, would any of you be able to help me with any of the cost? Every dollar would count and would be absolutely amazing. <3

I need 1300 just for the flight (If I'm reading these travel sites right... idk how to find plane tickets.)

So yeah. That's my plan.

Figured I'd share.

PM me if you would rather send a check, I'll give you my address. <3

I'd like to visit Australia someday myself.


Feel like bringing me along? I could provide a couple hundred dollars.

God darn that bug in your sig.


Anyway, New York sucks.




Can't you fly from somewhere at least slightly better, like Utah?  D=

Mack you wanna go too?

It'd probably be best, if we all go, to get a hotel so I don't bother my friend Emma for space :X

I'd go, but I doubt there are many flights from NY, to AZ, to AB, to Australia.

Eh...I would go, but you guys probably would not want to have a 12-13 year old with you.

Not as good as it used to be though. I mean, I live in Colorado. Lotta snow, right?
Wrong. We haven't gotten any snow like we used to in the last few years. I know there are more places but they probably have the same problems we are.

I think you can thank Silk for that, my friend who was active for a month or so and then just dropped out.

Mom: WHAT!?

I went last January and round trip tickets were 2400 dollars. That was from Michigan to Sydney.The seasons there are opposite of ours so take that into consideration.

If anyone CAN donate, here's a pay pal link.
https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=4076208

If you're rather send a check, PM me and I'll message you my address.

Again, any donation would be intercourse ing amazing.
<3

Every single penny will count. If I can't make the trip this summer, the money will be put into a bank account and will be saved for the Winter, and so on until I have the money to make the trip. I WILL go on this trip, don't worry I'm not ripping you off.

"don't worry, I'm not ripping you off" totally sounds like you're not ripping people off.
