It's the night before I leave and it feels like I'm heading off to camp(again). I have the pre camp jitters because I'm not sure if I will have friends or contact with the outside world. After careful internet and facebook stalking it seems like everyone in my program is way cooler than me! Rough outing..... I'm a little nervous they may find my starbucks obsession and my two bags a little high maintenance. I'm hoping the green feather in my hair will throw them off. I can at least hope right? I'll have to mask my personality a bit at first introducing them to all of it at once is a bit much for anyone to handle. Just like the first day of camp I plan to go with my hair straightened, a semi presentable outfit on, and make-up despite the fact that a 17 hour plane ride will make me look disheveled, for the same reason why I would go to camp the same way even though we took a swim test right away: First appearances are everything. Oh how I miss the days when going to Camp Edwards was like going a world away. I'm glad I've been in D.C going to ambassadors houses, monuments, and museums with kelly to distract me up until this point, I wish I could be distracted for a bit longer. I've made a list of the top ten things I will miss
1. pumpkin spice lattes 2. Facebook (all the time) 3. People understanding Thanksgiving 4. Chi town pizza (oh lou's how I love you) 5.Words with Friends 6. Bu crew bonding time 7. Eating food and not having diarrhea 8. Only sharing a room with one other person 9. Of course the Schaefer fam 10. All my denison friends. However, for those ten things there are a BIZILLION things I'm looking forward to! I was born ready to decolonize my mind. speaking of decolonizing the mind check out this funny clip thirty seeconds in http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WWJGQQF6aCk
