Go God.
8 months and no school since February, since the 12th grade has been studying hard since then for the national test- so instead, teaching English has become a hobby, along with getting my own Bahasa lessons~ getting into a routine of working out for 45min. every other day, and AT LEAST an hour with God a day.
having enough time to go shopping with Chantika and Mama for 4 hours, learning from the styles in the stores what are the most fashionable, and then getting sick by the end- of clothes and money. and remembering when on the ride home, that I need to GIVE and not TAKE. like the world wants me to.
Go God.
Taking presents for good friends, brownies, and apple crisp to school to say goodbye before the kids have their final test and i go off to Bali/Lombok/Komodo with Rotary. Making dinner for my first family, the Batubara's~ scalloped potatoes, apple crisp, and chocolate chip pancakes for breakfasat ~and getting to hang out at a birthday party with all my cousins one last time before I leave. Meeting up with old friends from the university I worked at for my friend's clothing line, and learning how to truly pray and talk with my Savior.
Go God.
even the ability to interview with scholarship judges from my university for a Cox Exploratory Scholarship, which would pay for my entire 4 years of university... all via skype. which they have never done before. and even provided all the money needed for a trip to Malang (East Java) to be able to see my father's friend from our church in America's sponser child from Compassion International, and experience Malang for three days.
Go God! :)

Go God. for using me, touching me, molding me, changing me, giving me a purpose, and not letting me come home yet, but continuing to show me Himself in this wilderness :)
Go GOD! even through the rush in april, He sets me out each day for a purpose, and directs me in where to go :)
