My final paper is coming up soon. I have come to realize that once I get really excited about something I forgot about everything else. I am sooo excited about this trip coming up that I have been slacking on my paper, hence the quick blogs I have been doing.
I wonder who else is in school now? Is anyone else having trouble focusing on their school work? I feel like there is so much to do, and the time in which to do it in is coming up really fast.
Fundraising has been really hard for me as well. My church has decided to put a condition on their donation. IF I can assure them that I will have all the money I need for the trip THEN they will help fund my trip. Well here is the dilemma…if they don’t help me then I will not be able to raise all the money I need to go. I thought the church was all about UNCONDITIONAL love…not love with conditions. I have had a lot of trouble with the church since I got the chance to work in one. My faith has never changed, but my view on how the church is run has. My mind is very old school. I have been told I have an old soul, that I talk and think like I am from a time when things were different, and that I remind people of someone they used to know “back in the day”. I love to hear all of that, but then I hear (from different people) that change is not going to happen in THEIR church and my ideas are to new. I don’t think my ideas are new. I think they are the old way of doing things brought back from a time when things were easier.
I hope that when I go on this mission (Because I know this is where I am supposed to be) I hope that my “old soul” ways will come in handy, and really be of value.
Well it’s paper time. Blogging is not my best characteristic….so I will try harder to keep up.
