b to the izzle

hello hello,
well i just got in from seeing "Anchorman" with walt and his dad... i thought it was really good, plus walt works at the theather so i got in free..yay! i'm bummed i can't make it to practice tomorrow, too bad i'm supposed to be running 54 miles this week, yeah that's right 54 miles! ha ha even the NC State girls said that was a lot of mileage. I dunno how I feel about doing high mileage, i mean on the one hand we have high goals that we wanna reach as a team and individually so I mean I wanna do what it takes, but on the other hand, 1. how much is too much.. eg. overtraining...shin splints you know 2. running like 10 mile runs by yourself sucks balls. oh well i'll quit complaining. i went over to justine's last night for her "not a birthday party/hangout" which i mean i guess was pretty cool. things got pretty hectic, michael thompson cracks me up though, i never knew he was so crazy. and i really liked giving melissa and justine their birthday presents. ha ha my card cracked me up. sara riggs you're the best girlie! and so are you melissa, it was so good to get to hang out, after soo long. ha ha ok well i guess i'm gonna go to sleep or something since i went to bed at like 5 am this morning and then had to wake up for church.... nite!

I'M BAAACCCCCKKKK

HEY! Wow, I missed my blog! So, I just got back about a week ago from my delegation to Nicaragua! Let me just say, it was incredible. I can't even begin to describe everything that happened. First of all let me just say, Nicaragua is the most beautiful place, the scenery is amazing, the people are welcoming and kind, and it's sad that they have so many problems. Also the people I went with were awesome... I love everyone on my delegation!
There are a few main problems in Nicaragua, the debt they can never pay off, the IMF and WTO's "structural adjustment programs", & the immense poverty. Nicaragua seriously is in the middle of an economic war. It's sad that country's like the US spend billions of dollars on war and weapons that kill when Nicaraguan people can't afford the necessities to live.
Anyway, it was an experience I will never ever forget... More on it later I suppose.
It's nice to be home, but I kind of miss all my friends... Although Sara I had fun yesterday. :-)
Hmmm, so now that I'm back, here's my life as of now, running, working ( which I'm doing right now), hanging out. I would like to say that I was invited to go to the beach, Hershey Park, Ohio twice, but I had to say no to a lot of those options.... Boo hoo
Alright and now for the random shallow part about my Nicaraguan trip.... I SAW JA RULE at the airport, and got a picture with him... YAY... haha

alright that's all for now, because I should be checking on the kids I'm babysitting.... haha, oh and Harry potter 3... What a good movie, and I'm dying to see farinheight 911! Peace, Bernadette
