So Tired
Hi everyone! It is 2:11am here in alberta and I am so tired! You might be asking why don't you just go to bed?! Well I'm working at the front desk in the dorm. It's rather uneventful right now. A guy from west jet just dropped off a piece of luggage from edmonton, which is an hour away. You know what he dropped off?? A SLEEPING BAG!!!! That had to be a pretty sucky trip. lol. Kinda comical if you ask me then again anything seems pretty funny right about now. I have been up since 5:45am yesterday morning! Well with the exception of a two hour nap before work. I had soccer practice yesterday morning. I didn't want to go but was so glad that I did because it turned out to be a really good practice! Now if we could only play like that in a game!Anyways so after practice I quickly ran back to the dorm took a shower and walked to work. I babysat for about 4 hours and got to leave early to study for my exam! So far this week I have had a math test on wednesday, developmental psychology test on thursday and now I'm anticipating my third test in science later today! I will be so glad when its all over. I don't see how having this many test can be a healty thing for a person. So anyways here I am working front desk. I'm imagining my nice cumfy bed with fluffy pillows and soft sheets.......zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz ahem ok im awake again. Well I guess I should find something productive to do with myself for the next forty minutes. I hope everyone is sleeping well and enjoys their weekend!

Happy Sabbath!
So I am working at the front desk now and have only been here for 24 minutes. I was reading my bible and felt really encouraged. A verse that really impressed me was Pslam 106 verse 1; Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good, his love endures forever. In chapter 106 and 107 its talking about Moses and his people and how they kept straying away from God even though He delivered them so many times. It made me think that no matter how many times I fall down God is always there to pick me up! I am so thankful and blessed to have such an awsome God! It also brought another good point to my mind. Reading these two chapters I thought how could these people reject God after He has been so good to them? I realized that sometimes I do the same thing. I need to, and I challenge you to, take time every day to see how God is leading in your life. He is always there and is always ready to help. This is such an uplifting thought! "Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever."

ADRA Mission Trip Summer 2008
So as you can see this is a picture of Nicaragua. I have signed up to help build a school and some housing for the teachers of Managua, Nicaragua. A select handful has been chosen to go from CUC and we are helping the people of Nicaragua through ADRA (Adventist Development and Relief Agency). We begin this adventure in May. We are not sure what date exactly yet (we still need to buy tickets) but it should be around the 1st or the 4th and we will be returning in mid June. It will be a total of six weeks. I am super excited to finaly have the oportunity to go to a spanish speaking country. It has always been a dream of mine because I want to learn the language, be in their culture, and help the people! I think this is going to be an amazing trip. I can't wait to meet new people, learn of their culture and just be of good service. We were brefed last thursday about the information for this trip and will find out more as we get closer. For now though our goal is to each come up with $1,800. So if anyone is interested in donating let me know! For now our focus is on fundrasing and getting all the necesary paperwork done. I am excited to have this oportunity and see how God is going to bless! Right now I can honestly say I have mere cents owned to my name but if God really wants me to go on this trip I know He will provide abundently! He has done it before in my life and I'm excited to see Him do it again. I challenge you as well if you want to see God working in your life tell Him to do so and you will be so blessed to see the results!

Day after Valentines

So it's the day after Valentines. Yesterday was a bussy day for me but a good day. I spent most of my day babysitting. The day before valentines day I was bussy making cupcakes for the kids I babysit and for some friends. I thought it would be a fun idea to have a little party with the kids and make a special treat for my friends. So on valentines day I brought the cupcakes to work along with some blue's clues valentines day cards. The kids were so excited about the cupcakes!!! They had a blast writing on all the cards and slipping them under the doors of their baby sisters room, putting them on their grandmas bed and handing a ton to their mom! It was really fun to see the kids having fun. I think it was the first time they celebrated Valentines day. So I told the oldest Harbour that when she gave the Valentines day card to someone she had to tell them Happy Valentines day and that she loved them. It was really cute. Reef the middle child is still young to understand but he had so much fun. It was a really good day with the kids. When I put Harbour to bed she gave me a huge hug and told me she loved me. It was so sweet. I am really thankful for those kids. They have taught me so much! So after working I walked back to school and ran up to the ABC to drop off some cards to be mailed out and picked up a card and some candy for Michael. I think he knew I was up to something. I felt bad because I didnt really get to a chance to make something or have time to be creative but he seemed pleased with the card and candy:) So after classes it felt great to finally be on break! We kicked off our break and Valentines day to a movie in the small little theater in Lacombe. We watched Fools Gold. It was a funny and adventures movie. It turned out to be a pretty good Valentines day. The picture up top is of the flowers I got from Michael the night before Valentines day. I will write more later about my upcoming Mission trip to Nicaragua!!!!!!! Stay tuned!
