It's so different being home. Everything is a lot quieter and a lot less rushed. My mind is focused on getting this last semester of high school over with and keeping my grades up in not only my school classes, but also in the college course I am attending -Perspectives. It's a really tough class, but so far I'm enjoying it. I haven't actually attended a class, but I've completed homework and the articles we read are really interesting! Especially when you read them in a British accent, like I do....haha.
Getting back into the swing of things is really stressful. It's really difficult going from having a 100% mindset on BridgeBuilders and Sunshine, taking that, and turning it around to a mindset of school, work, and church. My perfectly planned days here at home are drastically different from the days I had in Chicago! Here I have a basic schedule of school from 7:30 to 3, work at 4 until 7:30 and home work afterwards on most days. If I don't work I either have Perspectives or youth group. CRAZINESS. I'm always busy!
The reasons I am taking the Perspectives course are pretty legit. I have a list!
1. To prepare for my trip to Africa this year.
2. To get college credit.
3. To get a better rounded view of missions.
I can't wait to really kick this class into gear and get into that mindset. This will be great ground work for my trip to Africa. I'll explain that a bit more later though.
The college credit will be nice, too!
Please continue to pray for me and the work I am trying to complete. It's a bit overwhelming...
Maranatha.
