Two Days!!

Well I made it through what seemed like THE most stressful week of my life. Seriously! I had a paper, a test, tons of reading, and preparation for two midterms to do this past week, in preparation for my trip to Beijing, on top of my already busy class/work schedule.

But some really good things happened this week too.

1. Me and some friends decided that we are going SKYDIVING for my birthday in May. My mama is not too thrilled with this idea...but it’s something I’ve wanted to do for a while, so I’m excited!!

2. I learned some really important stuff in my Bible Study this week -- Psalm 122, 123. It was Divinely timed, as I stressed about all I had to do to get ready for my trip, God reminded me to keep my gaze on him and that he is for me. The most amazing thing is that as I kept my eyes on the Lord, I had peace and everything I’ve had to do seemed to fall into place and get done. Hallelujah to my God who cares about even the silly details of my life that stress me! He is God over everything!!

3.I had a lovely best friend date with Laura. We had mexican downtown at Cilantros, then tried this adorable French Cafe on Broughton Street called Papillotte for desert. I tried a macaroon for the first time and it was raspberry flavor and DELICIOUS.

4. I got a call from Delta today saying that part of my trip had been overbooked so they re-routed me through Japan, which means I now have TWO layovers there. I’m so exctied...I can kinda say that I’ve been to Japan too right? And just to top it off, they gave me a $300 flight voucher for any inconvenience this may have caused me. Thank you DELTA!

5. I got just about everything on my to do list accomplished! Just a handful of things left to do and I’ll be on my way to China. I still can’t believe I’m going to CHINA and it’s just two days away!!
