Opening

OK let me just get this out there. You can read my blog, you can comment on it, but if you leave mean comments that's just not cool. I mean, sorry you feel that way, but really I have no need for negativity. So if you don't agree with me, that's fine. I'm totally cool with it. I don't expect everyone to agree with me anyways. But don't put me down for it. Understand? Sweet. Now that that's over with...
This blog is an opening for me. I plan to write every other day, if possible. Then I'll become a better writer as well as talk (well, write) about stuff I might not say out loud to or other people (besides my best friends). I like to think that people would read this, and maybe get inspired. The background is someone doing yoga. I've never really done yoga, but meditating helps. I'm beginning on a journey where I am going to try to not get so stressed. I'm not one of those people who works well under stress. Another thing is to become more peaceful, and more self-aware. I always put other people first. I need to learn that I can come first too, sometimes. I also need to boost my self-confidence. If you're one of those people who really knows me, you'll know that. (You also know what a freak I am, but that's beside the point ;])
First thing I'm gonna write about: My upcoming trip to Bolivia. Quick facts about Bolivia: It's the second poorest country in the western hemisphere (Haiti taking first place). Healthcare for 1 person for 1 year is... drumroll... $2.50. Yeah. That's less than a latte. It's half the price of the iced mocha I had this morning. I turned in the money I raised today. I raised a little more than $1,900! Happy Dance!

Alright I guess that's all! I'll write more soon!
