Ask and Imagine
Man....It's not possible to describe how pumped I am for Ask and Imagine in less than two weeks. I don't think I've ever been so excited for something. Not only am I going to be able to see one of my closest friends in the world for the first time in almost a year, I am hopefully going to have the most spiritual and knowledge-expanding experience of my young life. Through some freakishly unlucky planning last year, I was forced to back out of A&I at the last second last year, though this year, nothing can stop me from going.
Now that I look back on last year, I am actually glad I am going this year and not last year. It makes it that much more special that I will get to see Rushan again, and I have had the chance to (kind of) get to know and work with (a little) the coordinator of A&I, Judy Steers. AND, hopefully I am a little more mature and grown up and I will be able to appreciate and more fully understand what is going on. (Although with people like Judy and Rushan running the show, good luck understanding anything! :D)
In other news, I have taken my goal to become Batman to the next level; I wore my Batman mask on a 20 minute walk to MacDonald's with some friends today. Needless to say, the feedback was...interesting, varying from people pointing and laughing to people singing the Batman song with me :)

Oh dear. :D
And you know what I think about this whole trip business. :@
But seriously, I'm glad you see this as a great opportunity to learn new things. I'm sure it will be a wonderful experience for you, not to mention you'll see Rushan!

Have a great time!
There's a shopping mall here in Oxford that would stop you going inside wearing a Batman mask... Ch'Town sounds much more welcoming to superheroes.

As you will see from the post on my blog I am looking forward to A&I just as much as you are and I am also looking forward to catching up with you again after almost 9 months. It is going to be a blast, if last year was anything to go by. We can only hope that you are a little more mature and group up...although that remains to be seen ;)
