check this out...

Well, I'm going to Costa Rica this summer.  Yes indeed.  Royal Servants couldn't get rid of me.  This especially means that between now and June 13th I have to do a ton to get prepared and raise $2,775.  But if this is what God is calling me to do then He really will provide.  But I'm going to do every single thing in my power to enable Him to bless me.  I'm actually in the process of filling out the application right now.  I'm excited and nervous all at the same time.  For some reason, being gone for 6 weeks of my summer doesn't seem as long to me as it did when I was preparing to go to Scotland two summers ago.  "A long time" must be more of a relative term to me now...  This trip is a bit more daunting in other ways.  Mainly because I'll be a staff discipler this time, pouring myself into a small group of younger girls that will view me as their mentor/leader/big sister.  That's kinda intimidating.  But I think God has and will continue to prepare me for this challenge...and plus...learning to trust Him is something he's continually teaching me.

That's probably the biggest news in my life right now.  The rest of this stuff is just random...

I have to decide by Friday what (if any) position to run for on SGA next year.  Anything on Junior SGA is intimidating simply because of the task of planning Junior/Senior.  We'll see what decision I make though.  Either way next year will be exciting.  :)

Hmmm....I put on makeup today.  I'm trying to figure out if there's ever a rhyme or reason on the days that I actually decide to put makeup on my face.  So far I haven't come up with anything.  

The CRU Formal is this Friday and the Bryan Spring Banquet is this Saturday.  So I'll be fancy and dressed up way more this weekend then normal.  I'm super stoked about both of them.  I haven't gotten to see my CRU friends in waaayyyy too long...so that'll be fantastic.  Then for the Spring Banquet I know the boys are planning super fun things for us to do afterwards...but it's all a surprise.  Yay!  :)

I think today is Bluegrass Worship Chapel.  At least that's the going rumor.  We'll see how that goes...  :-P

later kids!
