First I will have the guy who wrote "Lean like a Cholo" deported.

I've decided to become an immigration lawyer.

And I leave for Guatemala in like 11 days. D: VIDAAAAAA.

How are you? What are you going to be when you grow up?

A librarian!

HAVE FUN IN GUATEMALA OMG.

[_stasha]

Librarian is near the top of my list of other possible careers!! I swear every librarian I've ever met is secretly fierce.

TY I'M KIND OF FREAKING OUT TODAY BECAUSE OF THIS http://www.travelblog.org/Central-America-Caribbean/Guatemala/Quetzaltenango/blog-270649.html

BUT I KNOW KE^7 AND I WILL BE SAFE SO IT'S OK.

I've never really wanted to be anything else. When I found out what I had to do to be a librarian and what education I needed I was like HELL YES LET'S DO THIS. Which is awesome.

D: Take pepper spray for the dogs/attackers. You have guts, bb. I don't think I'd go after reading that. D:

I want to be a marketing director at the philanthropic arm of a major corporation to ensure that it is using it's money for a socially just cause.

Or I want to run the marketing department of a non-profit organization like OLPC (One Laptop Per Child).

[_stasha]

It is always cool to me to see how people in marketing or business majors are able to use their skills without selling their soul. Whenever I think business I think THE APPRENTICE or something but you guys make the non-profit rounds more than Liberal Arts students!

how
did
i
miss
this

um idk tbh ^_________________^ I still have these really romantic dreams of living somewhere in buttfuck west/south Texas teaching ESL or bilingual education and living in a trailer w/o AC but w/ a kiddie pool. And then I put ice in the kiddie pool and a lawn chair and just sit in it and do all my grading and shit I THINK THAT WOULD BE HEAVEN ^o^

[kekekekekekeke]

o beer too I 4got the beer but that is critical

[_stasha]

Honestly that sounds amazing. I lived in a trailer when I was little and idk the romanticism is kind of true at least when you're 4-7. Except nowadays you have to worry about people cooking meth and blowing you to smithereens. :/

Next summer I should come to Oklahoma and we'll have a ~white trash beautiful*~ week of beer, sun tanning, pools filled w/ hose water, and I'll cook a never ending supply of fried green tomatoes. My dream ^__^

*lol have you heard that song it's like one of my favorite love songs ever but I don't usually tell people

[kekekekekekeke]

what a sad sad video ;-;

(pssssssssssssssssssssst how are Guatemala preparations going?)

[_stasha]

Well :) I am mostly packed except for what needs to go in the laundry tonight and I've been forcing my friends to speak in Spanish to me so I can get in the groove. There's a Debbie Downer on travelblog who keeps posting entries that contain at least one horror story but most of the time it's because they were walking late at night or whatever. Silly Canadians I would never walk the streets of Atlanta in 1 AM let alone a city in Central America.

Do you live in NYC or am I just imagining you there since you work in fashion? Because I am coming in December!!

[igiveyoumylife]

(psst well, in marketing/ads so we end up doing fashion related stuff - it really is not terribly glamorous, it's a wicked mediocre firm. why are you coming to ze Apple)

Travelblogs are fucking terrifying most of the time - as long as you keep your wits about you and arent an obnoxious American (and you wouldnt be an ass anyway) you should be fine! Ive never been to South America but from the multiple stories Ive heard, you'll be fine :D

you better update one you get back!
