Life...

I stat my third week of my internship today. I have interned/worked every day for the past week. I shouldn't complain because it's really good to be busy with stuff, today I'm not in the mood today to do anything. I have to say it could be that I might have pulled something in my back yesterday at work, instead of pulling my bicep muscles, I killed my back.


I leave for my trip on Wednesday at like 6 in the morning, I'm pretty much all packed with exception for a couple things. I can't decide which stuffed penguin I want to take. I want to take Lenny but he's a husky bird... Carl is not big into traveling ... and the little penguins I usually take are not as cuddly..... so I might end up taking Lenny. I am excited to go, although I'm nervous about taking a plane all by myself. I think I can do it! I'm not the most patriotic person but I think it will be interesting to be in another country over the 4th of July. I might keep a newspaper from the date to see like what kind of stuff is going on in another country while people back home are getting drunk, boating, having bonfires, and wearing alot of red, white, and blue. Perhaps there will be something in the news about our independence day and i'd like to see first hand how another country responds to hearing about the US in the news. It just might be interesting and a good learning experience.

I'm still waiting for my new license to come in the mail, I'm glad I didn't loose my passport or anything like that.


Also I'm sad that several well known celebrities have died in the past week or so and I really respect that there are those grieving and I finally will admit I am going to miss Michael Jackson. He really was talented ( I guess I only was familiar with the Thriller album and those songs really get over played so I get annoyed with them). My mom and I sat and watched some music videos on VH1 classic last night, he really was good and I should have given him more credit, I was just too judgmental about his appearance. He was a pretty damn good dancer and some of his less popular videos are in my opinion really creative and totally the kind of stuff you can watch over and over because they're so interesting.

Well I know everyone's stupid facebook status's are all about people dying I thought I would mention a problem that directly affects an entire country, democratic stuff etc. etc. and possibly US relation to Honduras(which I could go on about...). The Honduran president was basically kicked out of the country by the Military....
