108

I bowled a 108. and then a 106. and i was mocked by steve, who bowled a 62, then a 65. he claims he's a better bowler because he improved his score. and i did not. this is my life....

and i love it.


i went bowling tonight with a group of people from the church i've been attending the last few weeks. the church is called st. thomas' and we go to the evening gathering. it's a more contemporary style, so it reminds me of home. there are a lot of university students, like the group we hung out with tonight. danielled invited me to go, which was nice. we're going to join their cell group, which meets weekly. it's exciting to be involved in a group outside of the oakes, and have some new friends to boot!! i'm very blessed. i know that.

i'm feeling like maybe, just maybe, God's got something crazy going on here. don't really know what that could be, but i feel it stirring inside of me. random side note.

as for life here at the oakes, sara has decided to leave early. and i'm truly saddened by that. she's amazing. and we get along so well. but she's just not feeling like this is where God wants her to be. and i can understand that feeling. so she's going home in a couple of weeks. we're gonna try to pull of a quick trip to london before she goes. we'll see if that happens. i'd love to do it, but working on a missionaries salary doesn't necessarily allow for things like that. so i have to do some finance stuff this week. gross.

i was told today that i was inspiring. and i've honestly never had anyone say that to me. what a compliment!! i just hope i can live up to the standards of an inspiring person! i'm not even sure what those standards are. but they've got to be high up there. woo, the pressure is starting to set in! i apologize in advance to those of you who do not find me inspiring and are reading this simply to have something to mock me about later. add this to the list.

well my loves, it's time for me to get some shuteye. big day of working tomorrow. can't wait to clean some toilets and do some more laundry. i love being on housekeeping. maybe tomorrow i'll get to mop and scrub mud off walls. ok, a girl can dream can't she?

goodnight!
