I sometimes forget how smart I am until something happens to remind me. You know what I mean. We do the same things every day, rarely being presented with a new challenge (or an old one that we think we forgot how to do) and master it and then remember that we are, indeed, the shit. It's like the Black Eyed Peas say, "My mama's always saying 'My baby's a genius'!". Or, to quote Mos Def, "I am the Earth, wind, fire and the thunda. You don't believe me? Go ask my Mama!"
I had one of those moments today. I had to give a presentation with my boss and another attorney and I did a pretty good job. I wasn't as prepared as I should have been but luckily, I'm great at cold reads thanks to years of theatre and I think fast (when I'm speaking in public. If someone insults me it'll take me weeks to think of a comeback) so I was able to pull together a pretty convincing presentation. Yaay me.
In other news, yesterday was a pretty fantabulous day. I can now officially pay for my last year of law school (thanks Uncle Sam!), I have secured a lovely place to stay with a coworker and her husband (because I work for the best people ever) and I now have three new sources of income that wont'be too shabby for my last month in Cambodia. I'm not making it rain or anything, but I will be swimming in potatoes and pasta.
This weekend my roommate and I have to pack and move. I'm leaving the apartment, she's leaving the country. So sad! Becky has been an awesome roommate, I'm so sad she has to go! Hopefully the next four weeks will fly by and then I'll be on my way to Africaaaa!!!!
Woohoo!
Travel well,
