one big holiday

ok. well. i actually wrote a blog entry a long time back that got deleted, back when i was in san luis at the uga campus the first time. and i was so annoyed that it got deleted that i didnt rewrite it and never wrote another one. so i officially have ONE blog post from my 2 months in costa rica. goooooood one.
i am currently back at home in alpharettafieldtownville, what a dream. ive actually enjoyed being back so far, which is a little suprising. i was ready to come home. actually, i was REALLLLLLY ready to come home. by the last few days, i was just in a horrible mood and acting really withdrawn and i honestly didnt feel like hanging out with people at all. i was pretty bad. and now that im home i really wish i hadnt done that. i was just so eager to get back here. and (since im sure none of them will read this) i just didnt click with my second group as much. i missed the first group the whole time and just wanted them to be back. the second never really felt like my family. not to say that i didnt have fun on the second part of the trip because i definitely did. we stayed at really awesome places, like mawamba lodge in tortuguero national park up on the carribean side, and the rafiki lodge down on the pacific side. both were suppeer nice with pools and a water slide at rafiki and big open bars and amazing food. definitely didnt have anything like that during the first trip. and i saw a ton of cool birds, including scarlet macaws! and chlorophonias we went up into the canopy bridges. those might have been the prettiest birds i saw the whole time. they were SO BRIGHT, it was incredible.
i also started doing some data gathering for my senior thesis project while i was down there. some bird foraging data that i am going to compare to birds foraging up here. cooper said hes never had anyone do their senior thesis based on costa rican info before, so it should be pretty interesting.
but ya, im glad to be home. sisterhenz comes home tomorrow and we are going out to a yummy dinner somewhere, then her and i are gonna do crafts!! wooohoo!! and i have to clean gomperz cage, print costa rica photos off at walgreens (and frame some as GIFTIES for people!) and i think thats about the only obligations i really have! woot. got my papers done and dress fitted and all that. i am goin to grammys on sunday and then maybe to athens for the 4th fireworks that night, or i may come back here and go to kristys. well see how i feel. all i know is i leave for arizona on the 7th and i am soooo excited! i cannnnooott wait to go see little teeny tiny daniel whiskerbaby. i think that was one of the main reasons i wanted to come back...oops.
alright well i am getting really distracted right now, watching videos of cumbia on youtube ( its a type of dance, a lot of people did it in costa rica and i really want to learn!!)
more later. bye forever
