| Alright, here's the deal! I decided to start a Blog to keep people updated on my trip to Germany. Which means that if you thought my Xanga was dead before...it must be being buried now!  No worries, though, you can stay up to date on me (if you want!) by reading

Later, my friends!

| I'm not entirely sure anyone reads this anymore, and that's pretty much
ok with me. I don't use it, so it would be pointless to read it, right?
I am thinking, though, of reviving it for the sake of my Germany
internship so I don't have to send out emails to ten million people. So
I'm toying with that idea. Of course, that would mean revealing my
little world here to lots of other people, which I'm not quite sure I'm
willing to do. Maybe I'll just start a new one. Or maybe I'll just let
people see my thoughts. Yet to be decided. Like I said, I'm toying with
the idea.
Regardless, I AM still alive and most definitely kicking. Working alot.
Trying to keep up relationships with people from school and catch up
with everyone here. I leave in 5-6 weeks for Germany. I haven't
actually counted. But I still know VERY little about what I'll be
doing. A little concerning for me since I like to know what's going on
and have a plan all the time . Yet another area where God is
stretching me. It's probably good for me even though it IS frustrating.
I'm looking forward to it. I'm terrified, but I think it'll be good. I
need to see that I can do this by myself...just me and God...and that I
can be ok. God is definitely teaching me right now that He is the only
constant person in my life. A lesson I've learned before, but He's
teaching me again. I'm also learning that I can't do anything on my
own. I can't even trust Him on my own. I'm completely dependent on Him
for everything. Somehow, though, that's a really comforting and freeing
realization. I can't do it...but He can and will if I let Him.
It hasn't been an especially fun 10 days, but God is good and I know
that regardless of where I am or what I'm doing He WILL be with me.
There's no question. There's no possibility of Him walking away. He's
here. Amen.

| Funny...I was just looking back at where I was a year ago and thinking about where I am now...
God is good.

| So basically, I've given up on Xanga. I caught the Facebook bug (I admit it!), and in all reality, not many other people seem to be using Xanga anymore either. So I won't write much on here, but maybe I'll still say something once in a while.
So to update you all on my life at this present moment...I have exciting news! I have a hot new boyfriend! No, I'm joking, this is more exciting....are you ready...?
Ready??? No really, are you??
I'M GOING TO GERMANY THIS SUMMER!!! How cool is THAT?? Details are still being figured out, but I'm going to be there for about six weeks for my internship. Pretty much amazing, and I am super excited! I never would have picked to go to Germany on my own, and there is no reason I should even have any desire to go there, but I am absolutely THRILLED, which I think is just another way that God is showing me this is what He has for me. More details to come, but, if you think of it, pray for me as it all comes together. Like I said, I'm excited, but I know as it gets closer, I'll be terrified! I'm going to a country by myself, living by myself, and working with people I've never met before. Plus, as my extremely helpful little brother pointed out...I don't speak German. At all.
So that's the big news in my life at this moment! God's still working on me...for which I am thankful!

| Yep, so it seems like Xanga is dead.
BUT I'll be home in a little over two weeks! I fly to Kansas City on the 14th, the wedding is the 16th, and then I fly home the 17th. Finals in between now and then too. It's getting close. As much as I love the people here, we need a break from each other...and just from weird group dynamics. Yiiiish....
