hello everyone!
this may be the last time in a while that i write in my blog. I dont know how often i will be able to get on the internet once i am in Egypt. I leave on friday at 4 am from this base...our plane leaves at 6 or 7...one of those. This week has gone by so fast and has been full of learning dramas, preparing, packing, and trying to spend as much time as possible with the people we are not going to see for 2 1/2 months. Its hard to believe that the DTS phase of this experience is over. It has been amazing. I am definitely ready to apply everything i have learned here and be a part of a whole new culture.
This morning at 5 am my room was serenaded by people dressed in white outfits, with wreath candle things on their heads, who were handing out cookies. Apparently, it was a Norweigen holiday today...i dont know how to spell that word.....but it was a very different experience that i greatly enjoyed.
I got accepted to the Biblical Core Course today, so i am definitely going to stay for an extra three months.
So, im kind of all over the place right now because there are a million things going on at the moment...but i just wanted to give a quick update. Thank you for your prayers and i will try my best to write updates every couple of weeks! love you all. have a great christmas!
