It's Been A While!

Things have been pretty crazy around here and I haven't really had a chance to slow down and update y'all on what's been going on!

Immediately after returning from Vietnam I spent about two weeks catching up on sleep, missing Vietnam, hanging out with my grandma, securing a job at Life Time Fitness, and spending time with a boy I had started talking to while still in Vietnam.

At the end of May I started my last class to get my degree! Chemistry, intense chemistry! We have a lab and lecture almost every day, as well as 4 tests plus a final exam. Next week is the last week and I'm proud to say I haven't been failing at any point!

I also started working at Life Time in the Child Care Center. It's quite an experience. Basically we make sure the kids don't hurt themselves or other kids. The people that work there are interesting and fun to chat with, and there are quite a few kids who are there every single day so you get to know them. I work 5-6 days a week and have been making decent money finally! Plus I get a free membership :)

After my senior project is finished at the end of July, I am looking to start a post-baccalaureate certificate in project development and management at Baker College online. I really think it will help when trying to apply for jobs at LCMS or any other mission organization because a lot of what they do is project planning. I'm also considering starting my own sort of business!

I think about Vietnam every single day! I think about the traffic, the weather, the language, the people, and most importantly my friends and family. I can't be more thankful that God allowed that to be a part of my life!!
