introduction

This blog was started with the assumption that most of you would know its purpose but I'll restate for those of you who are out of the 'angelina loop'.

I am heading to a mission school in Africa. I'll be there for the first 3 1/2 months of my trip and I'm really looking forward to it. Then the Thomson's have generously agreed to tour me around Scotland and northeren England for 2 weeks and I'm on my own for London.

I have a couple of goals for while I am gone and this is one of them: reaquainting myself with my purpose. Eph 1:12 "That we should be to the praise of his glory...".

I'll try to keep this blog updated while I am gone as I know some of you await with baited breath every entry on this site:P This will save me from having to super analyze who I decided to email throughout my trip. AHHHHHHHH!!!

PS- You must needs forgive all spelling errors. I was homeschooled:P

antimalaria

I started the loading dose for my antimalaria meds on monday and my stomache is NOT a happy place right now. Next time I'll remember the "drink with 1 cup of water" part of the instructions.

Georgia's coming next week to help me pack my house, I have boxes for my books and I think I have places to store most of my things(?!) However if I lack there's always mom and dad's place.

To a better sleep tonight. (long and dreadful story of which I never thought I would play a part. HA! ask me for the details next time you see me as it's not fit for blog consumption. Although, as a wise person once said, "It could have been worse".)
