wow.

its been quite a long time since i've last posted something on here. in fact, the last post on here isnt even by me, its by my brother, josh.

a lot has happened in the almost 3 months since i've blogged, and life has been keeping me so busy that i've hardly had time to think, let alone write out my thoughts. i think i've missed this therapy.

so this is what's been going on the past 3 months in a nut shell: got back from spring break, had tons of school work, found out i will be getting to study at Oxford next summer (!!!!), got sick with mono, was out of school for a while, slept my life away, went back to school to finish the semester, had to write a 30 page paper, took finals, went to florida, had a relapse of mono, started working in a dr. office/ nannying, reading tons of books for South Africa...

and to think that with all that, i have had nothing interesting to blog about.

i live a boring life.

Actually thats not true at all. I am currently learning to be patient in the really steady times of life. I feel like in the past I have only seen myself going through either major ups or downs and I think i'm needing to learn how to be spiritually content in the very level times.

Well enough of my random thoughts...I had a purpose on posting this blog, so here it is. I am leaving for Capetown, South Africa next Sunday and will be keeping people up to date with my trip through my blog. I hope you will all be praying that God does all that he desires in my life and in the lives of those I will come in contact with. I am having such mixed emotions due to the fact that I feel like I'm going into this whole thing blindfolded, I don't really have a clue of what I will be doing there. However, I hear that that is how Africa works, they dont really plan anything or have any concept of time. So right there, I already see my first challenge. :)

be blessed!
