My cousin will be getting married on July 30, 2011. I was dying to go home for the wedding but it appeared there was a Peace Corps conference that might interfere and would cause me to miss the big day.
I wrote to my project specialist and told them the situation and the date of the conference magically changed to one week before. So now I can go to the wedding with no worries.
Oh wait! One worry.... How will I get home? Hmm. I could hitchhike through Mexico. What do you think Mom? Dad? I'm sure I'll be fine.
OR
I could try to tag along with a group of illegal immigrants crossing the border. Ever seen the movie, El Norte?
OR
I could ride my bike up... I'd better start now if I want to make it home for the wedding in July.
Gosh. None of these seem like very good options. None of them seem very safe, and Peace Corps teaches us ALWAYS to be safe.
Well I'm all out of ideas. IF anyone has ANY ideas for me, as to how I could possibly get home around (July 23/24 ish) Please leave a comment below...
suspencefully yours,
grace
Maybe all your blog followers could donate $ to the cause? and we could get you closer to that ticket home? :)
