UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE

hey guys

ooookay so plans have apparently changed.

originally, i thought dan was just coming... but apparently it's going to be a group trip now?

i hate to be a wet blanket... but... i really have to say this before anyone pays for anything related to the trip...

my situation here is very confusing/screwed. there are about 30 factors determining where i'll be next month. yes, where i'll be.

i am sorry if you guys are confused with my "mixed messages." honestly, they are not mixed (well, okay, maybe a bit), i am just trying to be as honest and clear as possible with you guys, as i always try to be. so basically, i don't know if i'll even be in this motel next month. i am trying to move out so i can actually get some groceries on my own without having to do 40 mins of walking (well, 80 mins to go there and back)... if i do manage to move out, i will be in a two room place (appartment, house, whatever) and will absolutely not be able to accomodate 5 extra people. i don't know if getting a hotel/motel room is okay with you guys, but it really depends on where i am then.

however, i have a few twists and turns to this, that i thought of, so hopefully, you are paying attention and not just skimming (LILY!) as it can get confusing. so.............. if you guys come on the first weekend (the one right before reading break), i can definitely take 3 people (not including me) in to my place, no matter where i am staying (for the friday and saturday night). i know, however, that this is the valentine's day weekend, so if you guys don't want to come then (or ever), i understand. but i can for sure house you if you come then. if you guys want to come the second weekend (the one right after reading break), then i can't guarantee a place to sleep for anyone except dan.

that's the basic story (if you want me to explain why, i can; i just didn't because i don't want to overload this post with uneccessary information).

however however howeeever, if you guys are FOR SURE coming. and i mean, for suuuuure, i can make sure i stay here. at this motel. that i am in as i type. and then i can take 3 to 4 people. or, if you come on the valentine's weekend, i can house everyone for two nights (fri night and sat night). again, i can explain why, if you want, but i have not yet just because don't want to add more info than necessary.

but if i do that (the triple however paragraph plan), you absolutely (whoever is coming) MUST come or i will be ridiculously pissed off because i stayed here and paid over $600 just so i could house you and then you bailed on me. not to mention, missed out on not having to do the 80 min walk for groceries thing. ugh. just thinking about it makes me angry... hahaha. kind of.

anyways, so i guess what i'm saying is you guys really need to tell me if you're coming or not. if you guys don't care about spending all your moneys, then whatever, you can get a hotel. but if you want to stay with me (where i will spend the moneys because i have to anyways), you need to tell me if you're coming and when. and then i can confirm and then you can buy things. because if you guys don't tell me you want to stay with me, i am going to try to move out by the end of this month and there may not be any room for anyone :(

sooo yeah. please confirm amongst yourselves (i'd call you myself if it didn't cost me $0.70 a minute :P) what's happening. you can email me (use my gmail account) if you have qs or whatever. or talk to dan. i talk to him every night so he's quite updated.

hope you guys can sort your way through that mess of information and we can find a way to make this work!!!!!!!! i really do! (but i also understand the limitations of the situation so don't worry if you can't make it)

-chels :)
