So to keep up with the theme of the past 2 weeks I thought I’d stick with the lame title. This week hasn’t been much different from the other 2 weeks. This week I got to go into Jerusalem for a day trip. It was much like going to Galilee, very overwhelming.

 
I don’t really have much to write about this week. And I know that isn’t easy or what you probably want to be reading, but this week has been a very difficult week for me. This week I’m realizing that my journal is going to become my best friend, my escape. I still don’t use it for the best of my advantage, but this week I’ve been dealing with some things, and trying to work through not wanting to be here anymore. 

 
Loneliness has overwhelmed me this week. How do I feel lonely when there are 6 other people I live with 24/7? I don’t really know, but I think I just really miss people knowing and getting me! I miss being able to escape and be alone. The other night I escaped to my own space by creating a hideout in my upper bunk. It’s dark, and a place for me to be completely alone. 

 
So sorry I don’t have much to say, I’m trying to work through the thoughts in my head about why I don’t want to be here anymore. So I promise my next blog there will be more.  

 
This much I can say…our technology ban is lifted 5pm Christmas Eve through Christmas day. So you can count on communication sometime! 

 
Oh I get to go to Egypt!! We leave Arad on the 28th (late in the evening) and take an overnight bus to Cairo where we will get a tour of the Pyramids and a Tour of the archeological museum!   Then we fly out of Egypt for the Nairobi airport. 

 

Lots of prayers needed for me as I deal with all the things going on in my head! Love you call and talk to you in a few days!
