I'm leaving for Uganda in 14 hours from now....
I'm nervous and excited all at the same time.
My grandma died yesterday morning, and I'm going to miss going to the funeral.
I know it's all in God's timing, and I'm anxious to see how he chooses to use me and the team in Uganda. It's so exciting that He would even use me.
My wonderful boyfriend surprised me with letters for everyday I will not get to talk to him while I'm on my trip. I can't open my first one until I'm somewhere over the Atlanta :) Such a cutie. I was very surprised and had tons of warm fuzzies when he brought them to me. hehe ;) gotta love the warm fuzzies!
alright, it's really early and I need some sleep.
peace out homeslice.

Friday Smiday
2 down, 2 to go....
:) that's for you, Jeff! haha
Today was an interesting day.
I don't have much time to write much more on this blog, so what I really want to bring out about today is this...I am blessed with an amazing boyfriend! I sometimes question what I did to deserve someone so great :) I'm very thankful for him, and I enjoy every minute of our growing friendship/relationship.
The Lord is teaching me so much right now, even when I am not that faithful to be calling on him regularly through the day. I'm glad that he is a pursuer and that he does not need my acceptance in order to have the confidence to keep pursuing me like people do. That is one thing that I am so thankful for. The Lord shows me the perfect example of strength I should have in continuing to seek after loving people even when they pull from me. I shouldn't need their reassurance to keep going.
Later folks,
CL

Just a wednesday...
Today was a better day as far as school goes.
It was my last day of class and I had my first exam of 4 tonight!
I'm pretty sure I made an A, so that's a positive....
The next few days are going to be pretty hectic trying to give sufficient time to studying, cleaning/packing up, and getting everything ready for Uganda!
I'm so excited about the trip and a bit scared at the same. I know God will use it in great ways, and I just can't wait to see how he ends up being able to use me while I'm there.
Hunter, Cass, Ashley, and I are all going to pick up some stuff for me to pack in my extra suitcase like kids toys and things. I'm also going to try to get a few more skirts from Ross.
Only 5 more days and no more of this semester!!

Exam Week!!
Ahhhh...It's exam week and the stress is beginning to boil in most.
I'm trying my hardest to be diligent without stressing, and so far I'm doing average on that. :(
I'm especially wanting to stay unstressed because I know that Jeff is already getting stressed to the max. I would like to be his stress reliever and not his causer of stress.
I'm particularly upset about a certain prof right now, but that's life I suppose. I hope that I can still have love in my heart for this person even though it's really hard.
I complained about it forever to Jeff last night, and as the amazing person he is, he generously listened and comforted me. He's a cutie.
I mean....who could resist this face??? -------------------->
Alright, off to a Christmas party with the chaplains, then a meeting, and then to study forever!!!! hehe
