I found out the other day that I actually fly into Kenya and not Tanzania and then embark on seven hour bus ride from Kenya to Tanzania which got me really excited because it means I can cross Kenya on my list of places that I have been too. Its exam season now and I am currently trying to write a paper on Canadian Foreign Policy towards Zimbabwe, it's interesting but at the same time stress full as its just one more thing I have to deal with. I picked Zimbabwe cause it's a place I have always wanted to go to, hopefully I will manage to go there in the summer if not guess il have to save it for another trip.
One of the things I am looking forward to about going to Tanzania is having minimal stress. Those of you reading this are probably thinking "what do you mean not being stressed?". Well the fact of the matter is in Tanzania is probably my biggest concern will be if I have air-dried my ass enough and making sure I don't use poison ivy to wipe my bottom after using the toilet.
I have been reading about stress and what it does to the body. Apparently it causes an insulin spike at a very dangerous level and can cause type two diabetes if it occurs and constant enough rate. I'm sure that at least one professor, if not more at my university are aware of this, and yet they still continue to bombard us with homework and sit back and chuckle to see how many people pull a Brittany.
Pulling a Brittany consists of you stress level hitting the fan, shaving your head, and going on a rampage like Brittany Spears did back in 2007. Luckily I have not quite reached that point yet.
Anna's Brittany moments have been dominated by travel thoughts as usual (some things really never change) and have consisted of dropping out and moving to Cape Town to work for a coffee roasting and trading company that I got offered a job at over a year ago.... needless to say it was very very tempting.
Other Brittany moments have consisted of moving to India covering myself in tattoos becoming a vegetarian and learning some random ass form of yoga to enlighten my soul...... or some shit like that.
Disappearing off to Brazil has been tempting as well, to learn Portuguese and work in a pub.... I know its random but I like Portuguese, its a fun sounding language, like a mix of Spanish, French and Italian being spoken through you nose..... bit like Jordies when they speak english..
Anyways time to pull some more stuff out of my ass for this paper. Don't worry theres no poison ivy involved.


You're only on a Portuguese kick because when your phone randomly switches into it it is sending you subliminal messages :D
