gut

Lately, there have been a few decisions, in both my professional and personal life where for some reason, i've had a gut reaction or feeling about something...and ignored it. Ignored it because I had no proof or back up to what I was thinking/feeling. turns out I should have followed it but didn't.

Didn't because since the agonizing days of essay writing at uni, to the reports and recommendations I have to make about strategies at work, I've always had to back up my opinions with solid, provable reasons. I've learned that to convince someone of something, you need to provide three points as to your position and that, in most cases, will do the trick in getting your way.

I leave for Costa Rica tomorrow for another attempt at finding my inner surfchick.
perhaps it's because despite being an uber planner, i've had no time to actually plan this trip other than booking my flight. because it's 12:30 AM and I leave at 7 am and have only somewhat finished packing. because I think i know the town I want to go to when I get there but haven't booked my internal flight to get there. because I have no idea where im staying once I finally arrive.

it could be that stuff.
once a planner always a planner i think.
but there's something else niggly. and to simply say, i feel weird and don't think I should go sounds and feels silly dumb.

so im going
and if it all goes horribly wrong, well...i told myself so.
