A Resume can only say so much!

I really did not think writing a resume could be so rewarding, I mean I have written them before, of course, for school and what not, but wow! I am seriously amazed at all the stuff I have actually done from 2005 to now! I mean, I pretty much took a year off at school at UNR, so I am behind but, I never once changed my major and I just studied abroad in San Sebastian, Spain! How many people can say that? Not to mention I went to Coachella in Indio, CA in April, then in June I flew to Madrid was there for 4 days (I was there when USA beat Espana in futbol!) and then we were in San Sabby for all of July, but before that I went to Segovia and then during that time period I had the chance to go to Pamplona for the Running of the Bulls, Barcelona and I met some of the most amazing people in all of these places. Then my friend from Vegas and Reno, Michael and I got on a bus to Bilbao and then flew from Bilbao to Madrid to Amsterdam in which Iberia was so nice to loose our luggage for 2 whole days! So I was in Amsterdam wearing the worst and cheesiest tourist clothes including a grey and hot pink shirt that said "From Amsterdam with Love" with a guys' silhouette and he was actually wearing those Kanye West glasses that serve no purpose to the sun at all. Haha complete with black boy boxers that had a chick with her underwear down to her ankles that said RED LIGHT DISTRICT. I only bought these clothes because it was 8 at night and the cheesy tourist place was the only thing that was open.
Then I met up with friends from Reno, Caitlin and Kyle, and we were in Amsterdam for another 5 days and then it was off to Edinburgh, Scotland! What a blast that was. One of the nights I successfully lost Caitlin and got to party with a stag (bachelor) party with 6 Irish men. Aaron, (the groom-to-be), Stephen, Matt, David, Phil and Sonnie. Haha many of these men's name have some correlation in my life, go figure. Then I said goodbye on about day 7 to Caitlin and Kyle and got on a train to go visit Phil in Glasgow, Scotland where I hung out with him and 2 of his mates from work (all accountants, can we say boring?)
Then it was back to Edinburgh, for sure my favorite destination my entire trip where I checked into a new hostel, The Smart City Hostel and met Jayden and Nigel (Leo DiCaprio and Shaggy) and danced the next 4 nights away and camped 25 minutes outside of Edinburgh in the most amazing campsite ever! Then after all of that I actually had the energy to attend BURNING MAN for the 1st time ever with 70 pf my closest friends from Reno. The drive was only about an hour and half and as I pulled in, my gas light went on! It was nice to be single for all of this too!

Of course I did not write all of this in my resume, but wouldn't that be cool to let your new employer know what an amazing trip you had and it shaped you to be who you are now? I have a feeling that they will soon find out (;
