I'm here! Finally holy cow! I can't believe it after all this time! This is gonna be quick because my internet is running low i believe. but my flights were good I met up with Kristina (the other girl from UW) in chicago and we hung together and then we met up with a guy Marc from Boston(ish) in Miami. Upon arriving in Costa Rica we 3 met up with 3 more from the group and then we went to the hotel! Its a pretty nice hotel we had lunch! Pizza y Imperial cerveza! (beer) tonight we'll all eat dinner together and begin orientation stuff. Breakfast is at 7am tom! yuck no sleeping in for this girl! Hope you're all well! I'm excited to be here it's crazy though!
Mucho amor,
Besos,

Counting Down!
3 more days, 3 more days hey, hey, hey, hey! The Countdown continues, or starts I guess as this is my first post! I'm stoked to be going to Costa Rica! It's going to be a lot of work, but hey what's work when you're learning in the rainforest/jungle? Well stick around and we'll find out together! FYI I'm more than a little random so if the blog gets hard to follow at times feel free to yell at me! haha and I'll try to explain better if I have time. For now I'll try to break thoughts into new paragraphs! I know most of you reading this will be family and close friends, so you love me anyways, but if i do collect some random stragglers, I hope you're entertained!
I'm in the throws of packing... my room is a mess, my living room is a mess. Mom's probably going to be a little happy that I leave if only for the fact that she gets her house back! Sometimes I wish i could just fast forward... Because I know I'm going to be ready on Sunday but right now? I'm not so ready. But I'm working on it! Heehee
I woke up early and rested this morning! Which is amazing seeing as I don't think I went to bed until at least 1:30am but it must say something for my stress level-it's going down if I no longer want to sleep the day away to not deal with things. :) I also had a dream about Costa last night. We were by some river, and I had a map and was looking for this waterfall but no one wanted to go explore and find it with me! And then it started raining! (imagine that... rain in Costa Rica) And I didn't think I had my rain jacket or poncho, but then I remembered I did! Then I woke up. Guess it could kinda symbolize how I'm feeling? Disorganized at the moment, but when it comes down to it I'm actually prepared? Guess I can handle that. Let's hope it stays and I don't drive my family too crazy!
I have no idea how I'm going to handle all the bugs and spiders down there... eek! Well here goes...! More soon!
