5 things Costa Rica will do for me.

1. Conquer my fear of heights. There are about a million ziplines in Costa Rica. They are called canopy tours. You go to the top of the rainforest, entrust your life to a belay, and zip line through the jungle. Sometimes you go over rivers, or sometimes canyons. I am terrified of heights, and always have been. As soon as I get up there I am going to cry my eyes out. I am going to cry the entire time, but I will finish, and then I will want to do it again. Such is the nature of a Britany.

2. Make me re-learn Spanish. I was a Spanish minor through a lot of my collegiate career. I decided that I hated the language mainly out of disdain for conjugating verbs. I stuck with French, and never looks back.

Hello Spanish speakers, don't mind if I do.

3. Take photographs. Be prepared....Facebook is going to be filled with them. I predict at least 2500 pictures of Anna will be on Facebook by the end of the trip.

4. Perfect my math skills. They use colones in Costa Rica. Time to start converting currency!

5. Learn how to live without an appendage (aka my iPhone). I am not taking a phone to Costa. I am cutting myself off. This is my break from reality. I am sorry if something important happens to one of my friends.

Bendy - If you fall down at a bar, I am sorry, you will not be able to call me.
Stefanie - If you complete that entire book of crossword puzzles, I am sorry, you will not be able to call me.
Anna - We will be together if you are pooping just yell at me from across the hall.
Hannah - We will be together, don't dance on the bar.

Short list. Great time. Can't wait.

Love,
brit.
