Its been awhile

So, I haven't updated anyone, on anything, in awhile.  Well I'm leaving for Costa Rica March 10th to start work on Rural Community Development.  Well, technically I leave for Washington DC on the 10th for staging, and Costa Rica the 11th for orientation activities for 3 monthes, only to begin my actual community development work somewhere after that.  This process has been the longest I've ever had to undertake, and to be honest the most frustrating.  It is nice to finally have a set date, with set rules, and set expectations.  Now the complicated part is the packing.  I honestly have nightmares about that.  I'm going to set up a flickr page sometime so I can store all my photos, but right now, again, all I can think about it how to pack 2 years into the luggage limits they give us.  Any suggestions would be more then welcome.

Hey there! I definitely feel you on the packing. Have you joined the facebook group yet? Look up Costa Rica March 2009 volunteers, there's a bunch of people from our training group on there with helpful/and not-so-helpful tips and what not.

Look forward to meeting you!!!
