What a privelege i have to be here!
I am excited to have the weekend and be able to relax with my friends and maybe see around Jackson a little and be ready for another week of classes on Monday!

Day #1

Hey again everyone - today was Day #1 in Bible School and we had orientation, it was alot of fun and i am excited for classes to start! Its so nice seeing old friends here and being able to catch up as well as making new friends! It feels like i have been here alot longer than just 4 days! It just feels so much like home i love it!

I have now got all my schedules and books that i need now im just waiting for wednesday to come and classes to start! :)

I just sit here and cant believe i am finally here and getting started - i think of all the obstacles i overcome to get to this point and how God helped me through. I am so excited to see what he has to teach me in these next 2 years!

God is good

Happiness and Embarrasment all in one!

Well for some reason i can recieve emails but not send them so i am glad i have this blog and facebook! I am really really enjoying it here - everyone is so lovely and helpful and i have already had so many laughs with these girls!!! I slept in the dorm last night and slept well (apart from the heat i ended up throwing off all my quilts and blankets!!)

Today i registered for Bible School, tomorrow i will finish registering by choosing my classes! This afternoon i was meant to go shopping - we stopped at a restaurant to eat and after i ate i ended up throwing up everywhere! It was so embarrasing so i just came home and my dorm mates are looking after me with tablets and fresh water so i think ill be ok - just please pray with me that it was a one off sickness and not that its going to bother me the whole day - i really just want to enjoy myself - not be sick!!!!! I dont exactly know what it was that made me ill because i havent eatten anything strange, it might just be heat mixed in with a little nerves i dunno!
Anyway please just pray for me that this tablet im gonna take will make me feel better and take away the sickness so i can enjoy the rest of my time!

My room is now set up and my other room mates are still making themselves at home. We are still waiting for one more girl to arrive but then we have all six of us! Kayla, Bridget, Jessica, Elise, myself and Bethany! I think its going to be a fun time :D

Well enough of me rambling on!
Keep in touch

I have arrived!

Just a short note to let you all know i have arrived! I tried sending an email but for some reason it wont send! My laptop is going to die any second and i have no adaptors with me!
I stayed with some friends over night but will stay in the dorms tonight i think!
Bible School seems nice - but also scary! It was a bit overwhelming yesterday.
Just want you all to know im happy and am here!
Keep in touch

2 days to go!

Just 2 days and ill be on a plane flying to Detroit! :O

Something about me that you might not know is that any changes i experience in my life i also then experience nausea! Since i decided to go to Bible School i have woken up feeling sick in the pit of my stomach but i have tried ignoring it but this morning it has really hit. I guess thats because its just 44 hours till im leaving England! And im scared.

If you think of me please pray that this nausea will leave so i can function 'normally' and get on with my packing and saying goodbyes! Also please pray that i will fit into Dorm life quickly and make friends easily. I pray that it will be just like home to me!

Thanks for all your Support

In 5 Days Time!

Just 5 days till i leave England and move to America! I can't believe where the time has gone since I came home in March! I am so excited to be going on this next adventure - I feel so privileged to have this opportunity!
Please pray for me as I prepare for moving and for saying all the goodbyes to friends and family (something i really dislike!)
Keep in touch with me and let me know what is going on in your life.
