First day of classes

Today I started my first day of college classes. I had Food, Safety, and Sanitation, Chemistry, Chapel, and fitness lab. All my classes were in the morning so I am done for the afternoon. I already have some assignments to do, so I will start working on those. So far I have had one or more of my friends in all my classes so that has been nice. All the professors seem really nice. So, that is what is up here. I am going to go workout with a few girls here in a bit and then tonight there is something at the campus church I am going to go check out. Hope all of you are doing well. Miss you all. Hopefully I will talk to you soon.

Peru

This summer I had the opportunity to go to Peru to help out at an orphanage down there. It was an incredible experience. I was able to grow very close to some of the children there. One of the girls even became like a younger sister to me. If I could bring them all home with me I would have. They have a great home at the orphanage and are provided for, but they all really need a family. I can not wait to go back to spend more time down there. I hope to go back next summer and to continue my relationship with Hogar de Esperanza. Next time I go I hope that I will be able to speak Spanish. I have signed up to take it at school this year so that I might be able to communicate with the children when I return. This trip has really challenged me to think about what I want to do with my future. I am very excited to see where God will lead me in life. I just have to keep trusting in Him to lead me where He wants me to go. Please pray for me to have patience as I wait for Him to show me.
