I'm going to Bolivia tomorrow. <-- WHAT???!?

So maybe that's a tad overly-dramatic, but like.......... whaaaaaat??

I'm getting more and more nervous by the minute. Not in an anxious-ball-in-your-chest way but in a everything is really surreal and weird and WHAT THE FUCK I'M GOING TO BOLIVIA TOMORROW, UNTIL MAY (!!!!) kind of way. 

I just feel like I have 75,000 things left to do and not even remotely enough time to do them in. I did, however, go to EHS today to see Dr. Schmidt and tell him about my trip and like... I dunno. I just still absolutely adore that man (!). He's just such a darling, intelligent, and incredibly inspiring person to me. It was really him that sparked my interest in history and in Latin America, and honestly, really in academia at all. Being around him made me want to feel re-inspired to be academically engaged (something I have honestly not been in quite some time, little known fact (or is it :P?)). Anyhow, seeing Dr. Schmidt may have been just what I needed to begin the long and arduous path to recreating my academic outlook/self [as long as I remember not to criticize/beat myself up to death along the way].

p.s.- I'm going to Bolivia tommorrow. What. the. fuuuuuuck. (!!)
