hey guys! hope you are all doing well.

this weekend i got to go to a masquerade party! it was really neat. i will try and post pics soon for you all to see. i also got a chance to drive here for the first time. not quite as scary as i thought it would be. b/c you are still in the middle of the road (the driver's seat, that is) it doesnt feel as strange. one weird thing about the roads here are "roundabouts". these are 4 (or more) way intersections where you dont stop you just "give way" or yield, to the person on your right, then enter the roundabout and merge int othe road you want to go on. it is very strange, but it keeps the traffic much lighter. nice.

i have found a church!!! eastview baptisr. it is actually next door to my school. there is a girl named Ruth who goes to the church who lives out my way. we will be meeting and grabbing some food together tomorrow (tuesday). this is such good news and answered prayer! i really miss being able to go to church on a normal basis and this will also give me a chance to meet more people my age! hooray for some community!!!

sorry this is short (although for some of you it might be a relief not to read a novel here). but now i am on my way out of school and home for the day.

love you all : ) GO DAWGS
