Starter up Cowgirl!


Hello hello!
Started this blog thing everyone's been RAVING about (well really just my lovely sister Yammykins), did a little research and figured EHH why the hell not all you guys and gals should know everything about me and whats going on in my life right? WONDERFUL! :)
So the day I'm actually leaving is creeping up very very soon. I can't stop thinking about what I'm going to be doing and I get goosebumps just thinking if I'm going to do the job to peace corps standards. A nausiating yet delightful and exciting feeling.
I'm leaving in 5 days! I feel like a chicken without a head! I keep looking up other volunteers blogs in hopes of some advice for packing. All I keep finding are the packing list for volunteers going to Tanzania! Or some other far far country that isn't Nicaragua....SIGH...Anywho I picked out some of the most common things like panties and bras and what not you know the obvious, but some volunteers I noticed brought like seasonings and lamps and laptops! HOw is this all fitting in the very limited amount of luggage that we are given?
Anyway I must get back to this mess of mine...if anyone has tips on what to pack let me know cause I think my mom is on the verge of breakdown cause my stuff is taking over the house...Oops
Ill let you know how it all turns out.

Ta ta!!
