I sat there, with absolutely no idea of what to write. What was I supposed to write? I flipped through my journal and read my assignments again.

“Solo assignments:”

1 – journal about the image of myself I have given to the crew

2 – write myself a letter to be torn out and sent to me in six months
   a – include a bucket list with at least eight things on it

3 – give and take
   a – write everyone’s name down
   b – think about them
   c – “give” something to each of them
   d – “take” something from each of them that I want

I decided to make this simple. I started with number one. I couldn’t decide what they meant by journal – in the end I just did bullet points.

“My Image From The Crews POV:”

• helps where she can
• can’t carry much weight
• complains when she is hiking
• always asking people if they are ok
• does not like swearing and “war stories”
• is scared of running water
• has a crazy family

Those were some of the things that I felt had defined my relationship with my crew. I knew there were more. There were a lot more. But that was all I could think of at the moment.

When I was done listing everything I could think of, I wrote my letter to myself. I didn’t make a second copy – I won’t know what it says until I receive the letter in a couple of weeks.

I started working on my “Give and Take” list. I didn’t get very far! I managed to write down a total of three things about three separate people before I couldn’t think of any more.

Since I couldn’t think of anything else to write for the give and take, I decided to work on my mailbox.
