24 days to go!

Not long now, last injection on Monday - then that will have been 10 injections all together!!!
I dont mean to go on about this but another big massive thank you to everyone who has contributed towards Brazil. For Steven at the shops benefit you are not all paying for me to go on Holiday!!! I really want to help the people on my placement and I will be working - only 4-6 hours a day - but it will be hard and quite emotionally draining work. But again and again and again thank you everyone!

less than a month to Brazil!

Well... Had my second rabies jab and my yellow fever yesterday and Renne rang me. She's going to be emailing me a list of everyone else who going to be at the hostel with me - oh my goodness its all starting to feel a bit real now! I'm also going to find out what my placement is going to definitely be. It doesn't feel like I'm actually going to go yet - but seeing as I'm all paid up be a bit silly not to! It's going to be a fantastic experience and I really want to be able to make a difference.

Also went in to my old High School today! It was so bizarre showing my old art teachers my uni work! Also they have given me £250 towards Brazil! I couldn't believe it I've just been working everything out and I've managed together about £2,000 which is fantastic - so huge, massive, whopping, great big thank you to everyone that's helped me and contributed.
I didn't realise I had that many friends!!!!

Also I feel the need to tell everyone that it is Daisy - my great Grandma's 100th Birthday party on Saturday! -100th!!!!!

Quick update

well just a quick update... not been doing much the last 2 weeks, having lots of injections and mooching around with Ben, went away to york to a farm cottage with a jacuzzi and suana- very nice!

Next big venture is project managing a new build for a farm shop I work at when I'm in Helsby - all very exciting!

Then its off to Brazil on the 14th May! feel slightly like a pin cusion at the moment with all the injections!
