Autumn in New York or April in Paris?

Like I've written before, I'm completely infatuated with travel. There's just something special about going out of your comfort zone and entering a world completely different than your own. I'm a small-town girl with big city dreams...and they go into hyperdrive this time of year. Autumn is my favorite season by far. It's magical. The changing of the leaves, the crisp air...everything. I saw a show on TV yesterday about Paris in the fall and became "homesick". I know it's not my home, but you know that feeling you get when you just want to go home so badly you can't stand it? Yeah...that one. That's the one I got. I saw Paris in the summer...Prague in the spring...now I want to see it in the fall. Forget the winter...it was WAY too cold and snowy in the spring, therefore the winter is completely out of the question. I've also added some more Ella Fitzgerald to my music library and one of the new songs is "Autumn in New York". It's an AMAZING song. I recommend it to anyone...just trust me.
School is starting to pick up a little (darn midterms) and I'm getting so antsy. While I'm ready for gradtuation, it's also really scary thinking that I don't really have a plan and I desperately need one. Oh well. Like I've always said, plans are highly overrated. :)
