     Tonight i recieved a phone call ffrom my bestfriend, she got told from her big sister (not related, big sister big brother program here) that she was looking for some teenages to go down to Guatemala and help build a school for less fortunate people. I said yes at the time, because all i have to buy is a plane ticket down there so i can help some kids and meet some new people. My mom said it was fine, and i'd probably have to get a lot of immunisazion things but thats all fine...though, i was talking to my friend tonight (another) who lives in california and he said he had friends there that move up to california, his friends said to him that there were snakes that come up the toilets and dead rats and that its a very dirty place to be and that i could get really sick...so, id like to ask some of you for advice...Should i go and have a life changing event and help others and risk my health and be in a dirty place for two weeks? or...should i just not go and feel horrible for what  i could have done for those people?
