Sorry I really have nothing interesting to write about but I figured I should post. So school has been crazy busy but I am starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel!! I had a great Spring Break and spent most of my time in the Spring Break hot spot of Heber Springs! I am moving to a new apartment with most likely a new roommate. I am really excited but sad to be leaving my current roommate. This apartment is a little nicer and it has a catch-and-release fishing pond so I can brush up on my skills! Those trout in the Little Red better watch out!! :)
I have about 3,000 dollars towards my Africa trip and am amazed at how giving God's people are! I am getting nervous about going. I am scared that I will not be good enough to impact people's lives but I just have to learn to trust in God that He will take care and use me. That is the hardest lesson for me to learn... giving my anxieties to God. However, through this trip that is something that I will be able to work on.
I have decided that this is the year that everyone is getting married. It is crazy to think that I am getting to the age to actually be married!!!! Do not worry though...marriage IS NOT in my near future!! However, I will have an amazing wedding because I will be getting a lot of ideas from a gazillion weddings in this year alone and since I do not plan on getting married for at least another 15 years I will more wedding experience then I will know what to do with!
Well I better go get my beauty sleep...I sure need a lot! ha ha

SOUTH AFRICA HERE I COME!!!
So as some of you know, I was going to go on a two month trip to the Bronx through AIM. Unfourtunatly the trip got cancelled due to not enough people on the team. I was bummed but more upset because I already have over half my money for the trip and I did not know how to tell the people that donated so generously that I was not going. Thankfullly there was space on other teams for other trips. So I am now going to Jeffery's Bay South Africa for a month. This is a set deal and I am already getting to know my team members. They are great! I am so excited to be working with the children over there and can not wait to see what God has in store for me. I do have to raise an extra thousand dollars but I know I will get it. God has already blessed me with a lot of financial support by using those around me and I know He will continue to provide! Now I am going to go enjoy the rest of my SNOW DAY!!!

Catching Up
Yes, I am alive! I thought this thing was gone but someone informed me it was not so I figured I would start this up again. Hopefully, not everyone has given up on me and will check this thing! Wow it has been along time let me think what has happened...
well I had the best Christmas of my life. Why you ask? Because I got this thing...
Yes, you are seeing right it is a Kitchenaid mixer. I did not ask for one but have always wanted one! I know its not on the typical college students wish list but what can I say...
Lets see...school is going pretty good this year. One more year until Grad school! After looking at some options, I have decided to stay here at UCA for Grad school.
I am also looking forward to this summer! I am going on a mission trip with Adventures in Missions. My first choice was to go on a two month trip to the Bronx. However, there have been some people who have dropped out so I am now looking at going somewhere outside of the country for a month. So far, AIM has been a great organization and I can not wait to know for sure where I am headed to. I have already started raising money and am shocked to see the work of God's people. I am blessed to have such great support from those around me!
One of my cousins has been seriuosly burned and has had to undergo skin grafts. Please keep him in your prayers! You can read more about it on my Uncle Doug's blog. I have offered to help in anyway that they need me to so hopefully they will take me up on the offer (cough, cough)! you are all in my prayers and I hope you feel better soon Anthony!
I really can not think of anything else that has happened...well besides meeting this guy :)
