Okay, so only 4 days away! I know everybody is feeling butterflies in their tummy by now...I know I am! So, part 1 of our project has reached it's conclusion, our team has worked their booties off fundraising for the team..everything from fashion shows to bake sales to selling bracelets...Despite the hard economic times, we managed to raise most of the money needed(good job guys!)
So...now comes phase 2, the actual trip...none of us really know what to expect but we are all going into this headfirst. I'm positive the entire team wants to learn more about the country we are visiting and the reasons as to why it is in it's present state. Learning more about our own country's policies and how they affect the Nicaraguan people will definitely make us more well-rounded...sometimes Americans(especially teenagers) live in this state of oblivion, ignorant of the going-ons in other countries. I feel this trip will serve to open our eyes and our hearts. I definitely can't wait to meet all the wonderful people over there and grow stronger as a team.
Dream Team 09! Whoooo hoooooooo...See all of you lovely people at 3 a.m on the 17th!
Peace!
Michelle
