Waiting

Oh how time flies! This week seems like such a blur, but the goodbyes have begun and the time is drawing near for me too to say goodbye to Chicago. Yesterday the rest of my team left, along with south africa. I was unable to leave with them because unfortunately my visa was not approved until yesterday, and I won't get I until tomorrow. But this is just a small speedbump, and I will be flying out Saturday afternoon! I was a little bummed to not leave with my team, but it has been nice spending a little more time with the rest of the teams and see them each off.

Team Paraguay (previously Bolivia) left today, and I said my final goodbye to Darrell (our director) as well as Isaac (who is no longer traveling with Paraguay) the goodbyes have been sad, but I look forward to reuniting in 10 months and hearing stories, what everyone has done and learned, and to see how god has worked in everyones lives!

Team china leaves tomorrow, and then I'll have a day to clean, pack, and pick up a couple things before my own departure. It will be nice to have some alone time before leaving, but I also worry that I may become bored a little.

On a side note, one of the things we did this week waste take enneagram eats (which is basically a personality test) I turned out o be a 7 which is labeled as the energetic optimistic one, which surprised me a lot. I've never been that interesting of a person as I see 7s to be; but after reading into it and thinking about it I fan see it more; and can accept that I'm just an exciting person(; I expected to be a 2 the caring ones, or a 9 the peacemakers. Bu I think that I've changed anlot more n recent years and even over the summer, more than I realized. I look forward to seeing how this affects my year and how I develop into a healthy 7.

Well I'm assuming hatthis will be my last post until I arrive I England, so I would like to thank everyone for their prayers and support. I loge you all and will see you in 10 months!! GOD BLESS!
