Um I lost my voice...

So some may describe me as obnoxious, I would say enthusiastic. However, as I have been telling everyone here, my voice must have missed the connecting flight between Atlanta and Costa Rica. God certainly does test people and I am trying to find the right answer here. I started feeling a little sick before leaving home but I ignored it. Now I have a cold that is reducing my voice to a small squeak or whisper. Sounds like I've been chain smoking since I was about five. I swear fellow GAP students this is not my normal. But I am already learning to better sit back and listen and even though I am learning from this experience I would ask that everyone would be praying that I would start feeling better and that I could get my voice back! Now for our trip udate: Our flight was great, and we had almost no delays and actually got to CR a little early. Because Lydia is on crutches we also had a wheelchair and airport staff to help us every part of the trip! Praise Jesus! Also Lydia is go...

It's Go Time Pal

Tomorrow night I will sleep in Costa Rica. I am getting on a plane at 3pm Tuesday August 25th and I am flying to Costa Rica to live there for four months. Am I excited? Yes. Am I nervous? Yes. Am I anxious, and happy, and confused, and joyous? Yes yes yes. It's going to be an adventure. And it's a journey I am excited to share. It was hard to say goodbye to my friends and family. I am leaving everything that is familiar. But I am so thankful for the new experience. And I am also looking forward to the many new friendships that await me in Costa Rica. I know who my roomies are and I am looking forward to the hugs when I get there ! Thank you to everyone who supported me throughout this year. And thank you to everyone that is praying for me. My bags are packed and I'm headed to Philadelphia to meet up with my best friend who will be on this awesome adventure with me. And tomorrow we fly. I'll be blogging and Lydia and I will also take a go at vlogging on YouTube. Anyon...
