Hey Hanna! I can't write long because I am studying hard for finals but I jsut wanted to say that I can't believe you are coming home in two weeks!!!! Gosh it seems like just yesterday I was sitting on your deck having dinner and listening to you and your parents argue about milaria pills (or some wierd medication that keeps you from growing extra toes or whatever diseases you have done there in south america) lol, an now your already coming home!!! gosh time flies. Well I hope you won't be to bored back at home, I know it will be wierd to not have to protect your belongings from monkeys, but hopefully you will adjust ok. Love you darlin!

COOL...Baby sea turtles! You should have kidnapped one and brought it home. It is ok if they grow to be size of a small child, we could keep it in the bathtub. Lol, your trip does seem to be flying by huh. As much as I am sad for you that it will be over, I am really excited for me to see you again. I can't wait to hear all of your fun stories. I know you will be sad to leave paradise though because it truly sounds like that is where you are. Well hopefully you won't be too depressed when you come back to the real world. I love you darlin!!! Please don't get attackd by a ghost suffering from psychosis, or catch the plague from some child's spirit (you are so brave to go to a place like that, I personally would have been less nervous about pulling the tail of a momma caymen). It ounds like it will make some cool pics though. Have fun, be safe! :)

VOLCANOS!!! geez Hanna that is so cool. I would have been pissing myself but it is definetly cool that you got to see an active volcano. So is lime beer differet than coraona with salt and lime cause it sounds the same but fancier cause it has that cool name. I hope your spanish test went great. It is about dam time you are taking tests. I am sure you did great though. I would be shocked if you have traveled through South America for all this time and didn't learn enough to pass a spanish test. I am so jealous that you are swimming with sea turtles. that is so cool. Have you done much snorkling??? How was river rafting? it sounds like fun...beautiful too. Well, keep having fun and being safe hanna hedstrom. Don't forget to study hard too! Love you.

VOLCANOS!!JJFSDHGH!!! Are you crazy!!!!!! It sounds like you are having a wonderful time darlin....I am so jealous, except for the whole volcano thing.....yikes.
Still have not heard from you, so I am hoping that you are okay with moving in....i promise i wont bite, kill, or rape you in the night, but i cant promise that i wont pull your pants off in the middle of the night....hehehe.....
until then, i have an 18-year old, who unfortuantley looks like rob, filling in for monika. we will see how that goes....
hopefully moving in with us will be better than volacanos, lime-flavored beer, and bars.....maybe that will be some form of encouragement for you to come back.....
xoxo.

Wow Hanna! Costa Rica sounds like such a blast. I am so jealous that you get to hang out on the white beach and drink yummy margaritas. (Nicole's friend Jessica's dad has a resort on the Osa Penninsula in Costa Rica that Nicole visited. I am not sure if I told you when she did that, but I was wondering if you were close.) that is cool that you had so much brushes with wildlife (yet again, you should work for animal planet!!) That is funny that the raccoon tried to steal your toe. Maybe he decided you looked better than your backpack. You sound like you have a lot of friends there. That must be so nice to be able to experience everything with good friends. It is about dam time you have to take a test. Jeeze!!!!! lol, just kidding, I hope you do great, good luck. It is so cool that you are doing this program hanna. It sounds like you are having so much fun. lol, If you had told me this time last year that you would be sleeping in hammock #8 on the carribean cost and having your clothing stole by spider monkeys I would have laughed at you. Do you have big plans for Haloween? well, study hard, good luck on your tests, and be safe as always. I can't wait to read your next entry...love you darlin!!!

Amy
Hey Babe!!! I have not been on here in a long time I am sorry. Hope you had a great birthday. I will have to get you a late cake when you get back so you can have your american birthday party too. Be careful getting into vehicles with "some guy and his wife" that sounds really dangerous!! I am really jealous tho you are doing so much cool stuff. I love you and I miss you lots (even though I don't see you for this long when you are in Seattle it seems like longer cause you are further away.)
Talk to you soon!
xoxo, Amy
Kristen
pfff....I forgot to write my name on that one...that last message was me....Score 15 for the Blondes!!!
Well I am happy to hear you are in costa rica. Gosh your trip is flying by. Your host family sounds cool. That's nice that they have a doughter your age. Your apartment sounds fun too. But it sounds like you need to let the ghost know who wears the pants in the relationship. Put your foot down hanna, I don't think you can get in trouble for domestic violence on a ghost (then again you are in a foreign country that doesn't have adresses, you never know what kind of madness you can get in trouble for there). Your school schedule sounds kinda tuff, digital photography sounds rad though, I am so jealous! If you don't have the hang of spanish yet, you definelty will after this program is over. I must say though I am a little relieved to hear that you actually have to go to classes, I have been a little frusterated to read that while I am boring myself to death at school you are partying in some south american bar and hanging out in the jungle. SO have fun in school! Study hard! (for once! lol, just kidding). Well, I am going to look at your pictures now, which I should have done before i wrote you a message but my computer like to take a REALLY long time loading all of those things so I wanted to just write you first. I love you hanna banana!

Hey Hanna,
Kristen told me I needed to get caught up & she was right. I can't believe the adventure you are on. Memories to last a lifetime! If it's not too late tell Betsy & John we said hi. Panama sounds like a pretty good place to be. Safe travels to you!
Love, joanna
PS - your Mommy misses you - she tells me so!
