Hey friends!
only ten more days and i leave for the Peace Corps! 10 DAYS! I got my plane tickets a few weeks ago and I am actually going ot Washington D.C. for 2 days before leaving for Nicaragua. I am super excited about this because I have not really been to the east coast before (apparently Disneyworld doesnt cut it). So, in D.C. I will have a 2 day pre-service training and get some more info on Nicaragua and my program. I can't wait!
Currently, I am packing, and trying really really hard not to overpack. I can only take 80 pounds in the combined linear dimension of 107 inches. ya, i know, what? but its all good, i will make it! I am shooting for 60-70 pounds. we will see..... I was reading these blogs and some people are bringing like 5 socks and 5 underwear. WHAT? am I missing something? I dont know, but that isnt enough for me! I mean, I guess you can do laundry every 5 days. soo, I am trying to figure out whats enough for ME, because everyone will have their own preferences of whats important or enough. Its hard for me figuring it out! but I am thinking everything will fit just fine, even with a little extra room, and I still have a week to organize and figure things out! I am glad I started early...
Besides, packing, paperwork, and other little details, I am so excited for the weekend. I am having a little get together at my house with some friends from college, which will be a fun way to see everyone and say goodbye before I go, and take lots of pictures so i can remember all of your beautiful faces...
On a side note, last night I watched the end of the Arrested Development series. What a great show! I am contemplating bringing season one with me. That show always always makes me laugh.
Peace out! Irene

omg you'll have to inspect the situation and see how many of these people are hard core comando-all-the-time folks. is this an unacceptable request? i just want to be cultured.
yello-- i say absolutely bring arrested development. it will never grow old. but also there is this program called...erg...what is it called? ok i am back. just looked it up on my comp. it is HandBrake and I don't really know if it works on PCs. woo i bet you're glad you have me. anyway, i burned arrested development on my computer a long time ago using the dvds and that program. (however, it does take up a fair amount of space. but you can always delete it.)
