One month to go
Published on June 30, 2004 By Beninian Annie In Misc
Okay....

So, I am a nerd and have started packing already. I leave Greencastle in exactly one month and I figure it is not much differant than when I left for college. I begged for boxes two months before to start packing for DePauw. Come to think of it, hell, I asked for money to buy school supplies when I was in third grade. I didn't want anyone to go with me, I just wanted money. I devised a budget, did proce comparisons, this is the type of kid I was. So, why should it come as any surprise that I am think anal about leaving for another country for two years. Oh well, 30 pounds packed -- 45 to go.

Latest toys/projects:
- I made a quilt out of my old high school, college and Kenya t-shirts
- Found a solar powered battery recharger
- Flashlight with a hammer...I know...when am I really going to need that.

Hey Annie-
I was looking at Benin-related websites and came across this blog somehow- It looks like you are also leaving for Benin this August? I'm going to be working in the rural health sector, how about you? If you have any suggestions of what to bring (solar powered battery charger is a really smart idea!!) or if you want to bounce any ideas off me- feel free to e-mail me at eringl91@yahoo.com I also have a blog at erininbenin.blogspot.com
Bonne Chance!

Alpha Chi is quite different without you here. The page system is less abused, I don't have to leave my room to watch TV, and your laugh does not echo down the hallway anymore. Yes, it is sad...but that's okay. Heidi and I made it out of the ghetto in one piece, and plan to never visit 38th street again! I am enjoying being a slack during my senior year, and currently refusing to look toward the future. Miss you bunches!
