About time.

Not only is the title of the blog indicates that it is about time for me to start up a real blog, but it is also about how time really does fly. It seems like yesterday I stepped into my first college class, my first midterm, my first club meeting, my first rehearsal, met my first friend, etc. Life is definitely filled with firsts, and now this will be my first time traveling to Africa.

Well as I had promised, this blog will be dedicated to my trip to Kenya, which is coming around in about a month and half!! You have no idea, I'm uber-excited: excited to see what God has in store for me and the team, excited to bond with the members of the team, excited to go on safari trips, and very excited to work with the children!!

Here are a couple of pictures of the place (Shalom House Kenya) in Nairobi where we'll be staying at:

Shalom House Kenya

The bathrooms and rooms are really nice....
better than I had imagined!

On one of the first days in Kenya, we'll be going to a giraffe house!

The Great Rift Valley! Beautiful...

Well, I hope when I do get to Kenya, I'll be able to send you real pictures from my camera, instead of ones downloaded from the internet. But until then, they must do for now.

I'll end my first blog with this Bible verse that I'm loving... (props to Becca)

He has showed you, O man, what is good.
And what does the LORD require of you?
To act justly and to love mercy
and to walk humbly with your God.
-- Micah 6:8
