The Home stretch!!

Hey--I haven't really been writing lately because it is the last week of classes, hooray! Last week I had a 15 page research paper due in phys, and a 7-10 one due tomorrow in psychology of movement. I am def. procrastinating on finishing it.

Next thursday is my last final, and then I have to move to the top of campus for 2 weeks to take a class, lame! But after that, I'm leaving for Europe for a month. It honestly doesn't feel real even though I have wanted to do it my whole life, and have been preparing for this trip for a few months now. I think it is just all the preparation beforehand: finsihing finals, moving, and packing. I know God will help me get it all done. Prayers of safety for the group (about 30 of us from school) would be most appreciated. I really want to look for opportunities that God is showing me to be a witness, or at least a pray for people we encounter. Also, I think it is kind of funny that we are called to be his ambassadors (in this case it will be literal since we are in another country) but I was also thinking about when we are home. California, or the US isn't our final destination, we are just passing through with a purpose (to tell other people about where we are headed).

Oh, and also a fun little memory was that I went to my friend Amanda's house this weekend, and it was soooo relaxing. We did not stop eating or relaxing the whole time haha. Here is a picture from when we went to 21 choices in Pasadena for frozen yougurt. It was really fun even though all the stores started to close becuase we got there kind of late. I enjoy having someone equally weird and crazy in my life for adventures (though I can def. think of a few other friends like that).

Kellie and I picked out our room for next year, and we will be living with our friend Kristen (if she doesn't wind up going to Italy next semester). You should come visit, because it is gorgeous down here, and I need an excuse to go down to the beach to show someone. :) Hope all is well with you.

"I pray that out of His glorious riches He may strengthen you with power through His Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God." Ephesians 3:16-19
