I kind of forgot this existed. Well, okay then, no need to make a new blog for my Cambodia trip then, I suppose.
So, eighteen days and counting! I'm feeling pretty overwhelmed, like I have way too much to do before I leave... I want to see everyone before I go, but I don't even knoooow.
Also. Apparently I am going to Chicago this weekend. For ACEN and to hang out with Dia. Which should be fun and exciting, and a total distraction from trying to focus on leaving. You know what else is a distraction? Doctor Who. And Yugioh. And Fanfiction. And fun books. And knitting. and sewing. and pokemon. And Omegle. and Boys. and cute girls. And rollerderby.
Some of these are helpful distractions, other less so.
BUT. Focus.
I'm going to make a list of all the things I need to do before I leave.
LIST OF THINGS I NEED TO DO BEFORE I LEAVE
~Pack: Figure out what the hell I need to take
>Clothes
>Medicine
>Books?
>Toilietries
>ETC?
I feel like there is a packing list somewhere I read through, but I don't remember where I found that... note to self, scourge interwebs and memory to find said packing list. Starting places: CIEE website?
~Practice Some Khmer
This website has helpful videos:

...OMG Khmer language... what am I getting myself into? O_o
~Read some books
I spent all this money on these books about cambodia, I damn well better read some of them!! Books I bought:
~Take that letter from my Doctor to the International Center so they can send it on to CIEE to show how NOT CRAZY I am.
~Buy a MOEx ticket to stl airport for the journey there and back
~See why in the world Gilman hasn't given me my monies yet...
~I know I was supposed to email someone a picture of myself at some point. And I didn't. But I don't know WHO it was, either Gilman or CIEE, but when I looked for this email address, it did not appear in either website. So now I feel a little bit crazy. Get this checked out.
~Lots of other things I can't remember right now...
~OH YEAH. Pay apartment bills for while I am away
~Also pay roomate utilities for when I am away
~Also get utilities switched over so I can pay them when I am away
~Also figure out what to do about internet next year maybe?
~Pay fucking taxes so Mom can file FAFSA before I leave. Yes, this was supposed to be done months ago... I am aware...
~Get Ashwood lease shit figured out with Rachel
~Go to all those doctors appointments I have scheduled.
~Get in shape so I don't die. Of heat exhaustion and fat and pure lazy.
~Drink more water
~Start eating a yogurt a day to prepare my digestive system
~Find my malayria medicine so I can start taking it when I am supposed to.
~Buy Bug spray, Sunscreen, etc...
~Figure out what ever happened to ordering extras of my medicines for the trip.
~I think that's everything I can think of for the moment...
~OH YEAH. Clean off my laptop, move some shit to the external hard drive so it isn't so slow, and runs better when I take it. OR think about investing in a smaller, newer, less shitty netbook. Or possibly both?
~Figure out my budget... What can I afford to splurge on? If anything?
I think that's all for now, folks. I'll post that list of books next time. For now, sleep.
