hey sillies
i would like to update
it's amazing how weather affects me so much...i was in SUCH a slump the past several weeks when the sun refused to show its face.
and this week i've been in euphoria!...ah the glories of depression and seasonal affective disorder
so, if all goes to plan this will be my last winter in state college. hoping to go abroad my final semester here. ive always had a fascination with Nepal. and since the Peace Corps suspended their program there, that is where I choose to spend next spring. riding elephants, hiking the himilayas and playing with the street children.
so the count issssssss 15 days til DOMINICAN REPUBLIC!!!! i can...not.....wait....and what's even more sweet is that the people going are totally rad. i seriously could not have asked for a greater group of people...and it's nice that there are only 10 of us so that we can get intimate. not like baking 1200 cookies and taking aunt jemima's vaginas shots together isn't..
basically in the days we'll be driven into the village where the boys are (dominican children who are "homeless" and can't afford education, homes, etc.) and we'll be playing soccer with them, helping them learn about safety and multi-purpose activities..oh and most importantly giving them the >7000 bucks we raised for them to build their shelter....
and then at night we'll have time to hit los baros and marengue clubs. spadlers friend taught it to me. but these hips won't have it...no good at hips.
which reminds me...seeing my girls last weekend was INSANE. I love. love. love. love. love. them. got damn. i don't want ari to move to LA :-(
well. thats it for now...i shall get ready for class...oh yeah, and my exam which i am in no where near prepared for...indeed.
www.invisiblechildren.com SERIOUSLY! interested in child's rights? want to get involved? they came to PSU and i was moved beyond belief. I'm trying to get them hooked up at NYU. Elysia?
