blessed <3

 So i started writing this Wed. but just now am able to finish it [: haha

I arrived home from VA Beach last night. It was definitely an experience this time around. We got there around 6PM friday night and pretty much hung out. Saturday,we all went to the Cantina,which is a something Jada's old neighbor started where he and his wife will bring their work truck full of hot and cold goods and they feed the homeless. It was definitely something i will never forget. There wasnt much of a crowd since it was Labor Day weekend and the cops were trying to push them all away from the ocean front because they all are looked at as complete scum. It was so upsetting. Some of them just got thier food and left,otheres stayed and talked. I will admit that at first i was a bit stand-off[ish] because i had never experienced anything like this but as i started serving them and listening to them from a distance,i became interested in what they had to say so eventually i joined Jada and began talking to them. All the stories i heard were very extreme. Some of them had been out on the streets for years,fighting everyday. I realized so much that day. I realized how truly,truly blessed i am to have what i do because most people,dont even come to close to having it.  I use to find myself complaining about the things i didn't have but since that day,i praise God for everything,especially the little things in life that he has given me. It was an experience that will stick with me forever.

Sunday Morning we went to church (which is the one thing i ALWAYS look forward to when we visit) and it was a great service. He was teaching us that we all have to get out there and serve the lord. For instance-Being a missionary-OH MY! i want to do it soooo bad!!! Vince was telling us about trips that will be happening in the future and i was totally left down when i realized that the meeting to join was this sunday after church and i wont be there :( BUT hopefully once I move they can squeeze me in ;] .. its something i've been very passionate about for the longest time and to have the chance to actually do it,will be a dream come true. [: 

Monday we went to Busch Gardens which let me tell you[!!!] it is AMAZING!!!! we had so much Fun.

Anyway- Update on school,i got accepted,wooo-hooo! lol i know i sound dorky because it is a community college and all,but its exciting! I can't wait to start!!! [:
