Hello, my name is June and I'm a....

travelholic!!! I love to travel! I love being with friends and laughing and experience new things and exploring and seeing what kind of mischievous biz we can get in to! I'm sure like to travel as much as me but I really feel addicted to it. I'm not happy unless I have a trip to look forward to. At work people are always like "where are you going now?" Whatever they are just jealous!
So my next trip that I have planned is to Jamaica in March. I'm really excited for it because I'm going with my best friend from childhood and his family which is pretty much my 2nd family. We've known each other since we were 3 years old in preschool at Gingerbread house ;-) His parents are so fun and awesome! Plus his boyfriend is coming along as well so we are just going to have a blast. After (well before too) we booked our trip I was definitely having a little bit of buyer's remorse because I knew I shouldn't be spending that much money on something when I have some college debt to pay off. I've come up with some good reasons (justifications) for this trip and here they are: (maybe you can use them if you need justificiation for something)
1. I need to get in shape. I'm not totally unhappy with my body but it does need a little work. In the past year I have hardly worked out and I ate like shit. My new year's resolution (along with everyone else on the planet) was to workout more and eat healthier. I've been trying to do this for a year now and nothing has seemed to motivate me enough to actually stick to it. This is where my trip to Jamaica comes in. Since I'm going to be spending 7 days on the beach in a swimsuit I definitely want to look my best. So this trip is totally my motivation for finally sticking to my plan of getting in shape. It has worked before (Vegas 2007) so I think it will work again. So far I have worked out 6 of the last 8 days. And I'm bringing a healthy lunch and snacks to work everyday as well as eating a healthy dinner. Moral of the story....lipo and other weight loss solutions can cost lots of money! I'm getting a 2-for-1 deal since I get a trip and a better bod out of the deal.
2. Mood booster. I know everyone experiences a little depression at some time in their life. My life is ok right now but I do get a little depressed by things every now and then. Having a super fun trip to look forward too helps me get through the tough times. I'm saving on depression medication and spendy therapist bills so again, 2-for-1 deal. (Ok, the money I'm spending may cause me more depression later when I realize I really couldn't afford it but I'll just re-read this post to justify it again.)
