Okay it's 3:07 AM, I am surrounded by bags and boxes. Josh and the crew are coming for me in about 1.5 hours and I'm not even close to ready... got about 3 hours worth of work to do and some serious packing to pull off! Never fear LMP (Last Minute Productions) is here. Seriously no matter how much you prepare for these trips, you are always jammed at the last minute. Its been cool having a team to help, at least it's not just Josh and I this time but it's still hectic.

Honestly, I am really excited to go to Venezuela and connect with the Hip Hop comrades and all the socially active students from around the world. Lets face it, every time we have seen drastic changes on the planet it has come from the energy of young people. To have the opportunity to see these programs first hand, meet the people and learn for myself what is happening in Venezuela is a true blessing. I am pretty sure I have everything I need for the trip, as long as I remind myself to leave my North American male ego at the door of my apt, I should be fine.

Okay I've got even less time now, gotta go see you soon....
