News

So,

I got a rabbit (or my mother and I did seeing as she will take care of it once I leave)...he's cute. Mother named him Buddy and he's black and tan.

Furthermore, I've almost finished everything I need to fill out for the Peace Corps!! They have SO many forms...AND I made my flight arrangemetns to Houston, TX on June 22 at 8:47a.m.! :) I'll get there early, but I guess I'll get a nap cause it's going to be a long day and we have to wake up at 3a.m. the next day to leave for Honduras. But, thankfully, Honduras is actually only 3 hours away on plane and the time difference is only 2 hours behind GA time.

But, anyways, I'm excited and I'm now buying the items I need for Honduras and I got a job at Zaxby's to help with all the expenses! Everything has worked out nicely and the Lord continues to come through! It's also amazing that I got in the Peace Corps so soon after college ended so I don't have to worry about getting insurance, loan deferments ending, etc. Praise the Lord again! He's always faithful. :)

That is all (and I'm actually enjoying this blog thing) lol,

The Beginning

Hello!

Well, this is the beginning of my experience with the Peace Corps! Right now, I'm just trying to get everything turned in so I can truly leave on June 22, 2010. However, I might leave 3 days earlier for staging in Miami, FL!?

I'm also trying to get things together that I'll need while I'm over there. I need some good support for my feet, you know,...those are important. :)

Anyways, I'm very excited about my journey and service in Honduras. When I first found out last Friday, May 14, I was really excited...I almost cried. Then, I got nervous and anxious and now, after I've prayed for peace, I feel more at ease.

During the anxious period I was thinking about how huge this is...but, that's what the Lord calls us to...things that are larger and bigger than ourselves. :)

Love,
Victoria
