Today i finished my Algebra class, finally!! So i have completed my History and Math lessons and just have to take the finals for both now. Then i went to Young Life with some good friends from church. Felicity, Nick, and I carpool together to the house where everyone meets because kids here can not get their licence till they are 17 and it's a long and expensive process. I'm pretty sure my driving is going to be crazy when i get back, considering everything is backwards here and my six-month restrictions will be up and i haven't even been driving!
We got to the place and it was a night full of prayer and praise. We sang to the lead of a Guitar. As i said earlier singing is my favorite way to worship God so it was so refreshing to be in the company of sweet people and beautiful songs. Some songs i didn't know, but most of the choruses were the same even if the intros were different.
A few nights ago i went to hang out with some of my friends at Josh's house, but pretty much had no way of getting there. I had no idea how to use the complicated bus system, so my friend Caleb offered to cycle to my house to get me and then we walked about 20 minutes to Summer Town to catch a bus. It just amazes me how different the living style is here and how lazy I become at home just being able to just hop in the car and go wherever in minutes notice. It was so nice to slow down, enjoy ourselves and actually get to know each other because there was time for it.
On Sunday we went to the small Church of Christ about 2.5 miles from our home again. This time we took some of the students with us, thus doubling the population of the small place and warming each one the members at just the thought of us coming back to visit. Although it is not my ideal church home, it was great to be able to feel that in a small way those people were blessed. We went out to eat at a fun place after and then Mom and i broke off to go shopping for a little bit. I love shopping here with so many different options; it's one of my favorite things to do(:
We leave for Italy on Thursday and I'm so excited mostly because of the thought of going to Rome and throwing a coin into the Trevi fountain. This trip is special to me because i have spent months thinking about it, researching it, and writing descriptive papers over it concerning where to visit and what to see.
Prayers would be ideal for this time, the students are traveling all over and safety if much needed.
