In the event...

In the event that you're already following this blog (Heather and Tesh, and possibly my Mommy), PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE check out my other blog. It's for my very, very important human rights project, so I'd really appreciate it!
K-Thanks!

Sorry...

I started a new job, have a lot going on at school, so multiple apologies for not keeping up with the blog. I'm actually on my way out of the library, heading to girl's bible study with some of my precious friends that I've made thus far (minus one, b/c she's sick.)
I haven't experienced as much homesickness. I'm sure that this is due to the fact that I've been too busy to think about how much I miss the family, the boyfriend, and the friends.
Oh, LOVE the fact that I haven't had to work many weekends so far. I worked last sunday, and will be working next sunday, but that's giving me an opportunity to go to church. Last sunday i worked the lunch shift, so I went to church with a few of my friends in Savannah, at Southside Baptist.

I'm also on the hunt for volunteering opportunities for one of my classes, which is easier said than done. I'm planning on doing a project on the mistreatment of special needs orphans, but I'm having issues finding some sources for the specifics. I also don't know how to be terribly effective for children in Russia, China, etc, while I'm in Savannah. However, I think that I may blog about it (reminder to self: run by Dr. t's office and ask him if that will work. Seems a little more effective than writing letters to the Russian government, especially considering that I'm a little scared of Putin). It'll probably be under a different title, so I'll pass it along if I can. I'll be claiming Proverbs 31:8-9: Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute. Speak up and judge fairly; defend the rights of the poor and needy.

On a completely different note, the Medallions will be in Richmond Hill 2 weeks from today...so if I play my cards right, wear a FL shirt (long story), maybe my managers will let me have that day off....I haven't worked a Friday yet, so I'm still pretty hopeful.
