In and out of SA... kinda

My mind has been so crossed lately, i feel like sometimes I am stuck in the idea that I am going to SA and actually there rite now. Then after moments of great thoughts and experiences that i see myself in while in SA, i come back to reality that i have to be over on west campus to study for my church history test. I really do not like this stage of waiting at the moment. Especially when both sadness and happiness are some feelings that are taking over my mind when it comes to me leaving. 

It is Global vision week at APU...and i have learned so much about missions and what it really means to serve internationally. Even thought study aboard is very different than a short-term mission or as a missionary in another country, it still feels like in a sense I am going on a mission trip. Over all i think it is helping me to want to understand SA more before I go and not just be the ignorant american that comes to another country to learn and sight see. 

Almost done with a big part of my school year, have had lots of tests and projects due these past couple weeks, but once these next couple of days are over, I shall be able to concentrate more on myself and SA. I CANT WAIT.

a little update ..
