Beer cures everything!

Although it has been only a three days since our dear friends have come, already stress has hit me. Not the kind of stress that you get when final exams are approaching or when you have that 4 page paper to write at midnight, but the kind of stress that can only mean that happiness will soon find you, but it takes a bit to get there. We all promised that this trip would be stress-free and just a general chill place to hang out, talk, and drink some beer. But after only three days, I suddenly found myself packing for a week long trip that it turns out is not fully organized to every last detail that I am usually used to. And then it hit....my heart rate increased, my hands started to shake, and a million thoughts rushed through my head. There was so much to do and so little time to prepare it all.

Luckily, Agnieszka came and asked if a beer would help lighten the mood. So we all stopped the packing and hustle to locate all those chargers and swimsuits we'll need, and we sat down and had a beer. We talked for probably an hour, and one beer turned into two, but now the stress is gone, the worries seem trivial, and sleep seems imminent.

All I want is for the trip to be perfect, in that it meets the expectations of those participating, and that we enjoy it all. Thankfully, I got reminded that we are not in the middle of nowhere, so if we forget something there are stores, and this trip is a chill place....and it wont hurt to have a beer or two every night.
