hmm...

so, my journey is unfortunatly ending here. i received and e-mail this week from the organization i was planning on going to Kenya with, and their doctor did not give me medical clearance to go. its really too bad.

...

Wow... time certainly flies! Here i am almost done my degree, getting ready to go to Kenya! there is still so much to do, but i feel that God has his hand in the process. every step i have taken is mostly running smoothly and everything is falling into place. My police check is done, and thank you EPS, i am not a criminal! (not that i already didnt know that :D) i was informed the other day that i am now on the top of the list for the next assignment in kenya! how exciting is that?! up next, the travel clinic. got to get all those shots so that i dont get anything over there... i really would like to stay healthy. i really would. :)
at this point in my journey, i am very excited. i am also starting to be a little scarred. i have never been so far from home, i have never done anything like this before. what if i get homesick? its not like i can just drive for 6 hours and go home. what if i get sick? will i be able to stay healthy? this is just my brain going... but still... i know God has his hand over the trip, and i know he will use me for his glory... but sometimes the scarred feeling creeps in on me. i am more excited about going though.
