      ( 1:30 PM ) shut up christine  
The idea first came up last July while chatting with my friend Loralei at my sister's 24th birthday picnic...

tomorrow Loralei and I begin our backpacking trip through Central America holy moly!

Been trying to prepare mentally, financially, and physically for this since October, but eek I don't feel ready

Do I have enough money?

Do we know what we're doing?

Will I develop a yeast infection under my titties if I don't wipe the sweaty moistness under my jog bra?
(NOTE TO SELF: keep area under titties dry)
and yes, this poor attempt at humor is an attempt to disguise how nervous I really am.

I know it'll be an amazing-a-ding-ding experience,
but I know that difficult times are ahead as well,
and that part scares me a little...

truthfully I'm so scared I want to throw up! Gahh
and thanks to Nanet I've had nightmares about being kidnapped to work in a donkey show.

Big hugs to Valero, Priya, Cuong, M, and Loralei -- you guys might not have realized it these past few weeks, but thank you for holding my hand

So every step leading up to this moment has been painstakingly deliberate, from weightlifting to spanish flashcards to the Jergens Naturally Smooth Shave-Minimizing Moisturizer I've been using everyday for 10 months to gradually reduce my body hair so I won't have to shave in the jungle (it really works!)

Now I just need to be brave and Belize in myself..... hee feel free to roll your eyes, I won't be offended.

All jokes aside,
underneath the nervousness I am muy excitado.
And when I put on my backpack,
good thoughts fill up my head
and I feel like tiny hearts are floating out of my ears!

That's how I know,
y'know what I mean? :)

Our first two weeks will be spent in Belize learning "natural healing" and jungle survival skills from bush masters in the rainforest. Tis amazing who/what you can find on the internet nowadays

Will be back in two months

Email me if you get a chance, okay?
(and tell me what happens in the season finale of 24!)

LOVE,
Kit

I am a pencil

my life

I Open My Eyes
Take The Crusts Out
Stretch Myself And Check (If I Haven’t)
Returned Again And Everything Is Okay
Still There Is Something Missing
Like All The Walls
