Preparing

It's hard to believe that freshman year is completely done with!! I'm back at home, enjoying a few days of sleeping in and trying to get everything in my room organized again. I miss my school friends, but it's nice not having to worry about classes or homework and being able to just relax.

Tomorrow night I leave for Charlotte, then Saturday morning is my flight for Costa Rica. I'm more excited now than I was, because I've found out more information about where we are going and what we are doing. The language school that we are going to is a lot different than the one we would have gone to in Mexico. It's going to be more hands on (museums and traveling) instead of just classroom time. It should be interesting, and I'm sure I will learn a ton of Spanish. This will probably be my last blog until I get back on the 23th, because I won't have my computer with me. I do plan on keeping a journal while I am there, so I'll have lots to share about the trip. I tried to start packing, but it's more difficult than I thought it would be. It's been over two years since I've been out of the country, and I've never been gone for two weeks. I guess I just don't know what to pack because I'm going to be gone for so long. I'll figure it out sometime before I leave though!

Just a few days after I get back from Costa Rica, I leave for Cherokee, NC. I'm so excited about it, and can't wait to see how God is going to use me and the rest of the staff this summer! I should have my computer there, so I won't be completely out of the loop on everything. It's kinda sad that I don't get to hang out with my friends as much as I did last summer, but many of them will be away as well.

It's going to be an AMAZING summer, I can't wait to get going!!!
