What to do for the next 4 weeks:
4 weeks til hawaii: start getting SUPER excited about the trip and how much fun its going to be. Also, start fake'n'bake'n if you really want to impress someone with your tan before we even step foot on the Hawaiian beaches. ;)
3 weeks til hawaii: start doing extra chores around the house to earn extra spending money from the folks. Also, don't forget to sign up for which van you want to be in whilst we're in hawaii. HINT: choose wisely. and even if you don't end up in the van you want to be in because you're sicker than a dog and a chaperone doesn't want you near her kids, you're still probably in the right place (ie: you can still get to hang with the future-love-of-your-life. or maybe not)
2 weeks til hawaii: start compiling a list of everything you need to bring. its harder than you think to remember EVERYTHING you're going to need to live for 10 days in a foreign place. Also, make sure you have a ride to and from the airport. airports [especially after a pretty long flight] are not the place to be begging your friend (or friend's parents) for a ride back to t-town.
1 week til hawaii: start getting your suitcase together. (im serious!) don't wait until the last minute to do it Because You Will Forget Something Important. Also, continue to get super excited. Finally, leave yourself room in your [hopefully packed] suitcase for souvenirs. Airports have weight limits and you don't want to end up wearing everything you own on the flight back (or begging your friends to stuff all the extras into Their bags) because your suitcase was too heavy with dashboard hula girls and Hilo Hattie t-shirts
1 day til hawaii: double check your suitcase's contents (don't forget the toothbrush!). set the alarm for eeeaaaarly (our flight LEAVES at 8:40am). email Mr. Ritter any last minute questions. Get ready for the time of your life in Hawaiian paradise !!! :)
