I am here =) Finally I am in India !!!!
my flight was 14 hours.. and my entire Wed vanished due to the change in time.. but I am excited =)
The flight was good I passed out for maybe 10 out of the 14 hours. I didnt eat the food because, well I was too tired. Ascari and I sat next to each other and we sat next to this lady who was on an expedition to the Himalayas and also volunteering with some organization. It was really cool and fun talking to her-- she was super nice.
Our seats wouldnt recline that was the only crappy part... my back is already aching. However we had hundreds of movies and tv shows to choose from to watch so that was cool =)
So Ascari and I get to the airport and could not believe that we were in India.. I AM HERE ALONE WITH NO FAMILY CRAZYYYY
so we got our luggage which took an hour to get, I got real scared that they might have lost our luggage but it finally came at last and we walked through and
Rebecca G. met us with a warm hug and smile along with two other Interns- Kristin and (i forgot the other girl's name)
They are so extremely nice, Kristin is from Nebraska and the other girl is from Texas. They are both going to Christian colleges and they are here for 6 weeks.
The other girl, Brooke is from Missouri and goes to a Christian AG school there.
Ascari goes to Zion Bible College and so they are all still in College =)
They are all down to earth and so much fun to be around and the best part is that they love God with all their hearts... so COOL BEANS =)
we exchanged our money and i felt really uncomfortable exchanging like 1300 bucks and there was this guy who was ALLLL UP IN OUR GRILL and finally one of the girls said "can i help you!!" and he walked away.. but man i know I would feel more comfortable having a male around, but thats ok because God's with us hollaa =D
umm its SOOOOO hott... it was 100 degrees at 10pm so i cannot imagine how hot it will be tomorrow... we get to go shopping tomorrow yayyy.. and its my birthday so you know what that means, I GET TO SPLURGE =)
Then orientation and prayer and devos and then i fly out to Bombay on saturday.
we get to stay in the Homes with the girls and guys, I am so excited to just live and be with these girls and talk to them about their stories and pray with them... God is so amazing and I feel so blessed to be here =)
Please keep our team in prayer, pray for me too because I didn't finish my dances and so I hope I get them done tonight- I am WIDE awake and don't think I will be sleeping.
hugs and kisses from India...
