Hiya!

Hello everyone!  Sorry I have not updating in several weeks, I know you have been wondering how I have been and what I have been up to.  Unfortunately, I don't think I will update much between now and May 19th when I leave either because I have been very busy.  Tomorrow is my last day of class for this week until Tuesday.  I have school Tuesday (the 3rd) and Wednesday of next week followed by a 4 day weekend.  Then it's another 4-day week but the last of my classes.  The following week is finals week and packing up to come home.

I wish I could share more of what's been happening, but I honestly don't have a clue myself.  I'm here, but I might as well not be for as much as I understand just what I've found myself in the middle of.  There's something about being here that can alter your understanding of reality.  I don't mean the "hey this is great, now i have a new perspective!" I mean the "1 + 1 = 11" reality where you're surrounded by people who actually believe it. the one that not only makes it impossible for you to understand those around you, but simultaneously your own culture and even yourself.  i really don't like that feeling. in any case, i am clinging to God and His word and looking forward to returning home in 3 weeks.
