Best Way To Celebrate!

I'm almost done. 3 weeks of midterms are almost done y'all! All that's left now before Spring Break is 3-4 tests, 8 homework assignments, some reading, a few other odds and ends...

Oh! AND PACKING!!!
This Saturday a Spring Break Mission Team from A&M UMC comprised of 13 youth and 14 adults (including me) will be heading to Belmopan, Belize to lay the foundation for a local high school and working with area youth. What I think is really cool about it is that it is mainly high school students, college students and parents of high school students that are going to be building this. I love that!

I know you're going to be kind of curious as to what's going on and since I can't seem to keep all my thoughts on here or even keep up with posting my Project 365 pictures when I'm not on a mission trip, you should follow our Belize Mission Trip Blog! The mission blog may or may not ever have a post from me, that is yet to be known. It will, however, contain blog posts and thoughts from various team members as we are in Belize which is going to be really awesome. Pre-trip thoughts are going up already!

Go read about our experiences and PRAY for our team please!
Can't wait to go. And let the countdown begin... five days! :)

I Wish

Today, I wish I woke up before my alarm clock with the ability to cook a wonderful breakfast or at least drive through Chickfila before heading off to my first class of the day. After class I wish I had been able to obtain malaria medicine quickly before sitting down with a good not reading this for school book at a favorite coffee shop while waiting to meet up with a friend to catch up on life. Then, I could have gone to my last class which wouldn't be even 1/2 as terrifying as it is in real life. I would have played a few rounds of Rummicub before going to youth before coming home to sit down to watch a movie before snuggling into my bed.

Today, I woke up before my alarm went off and still only had time to grab a chai tea latte and a chewy bar before heading to school. I rushed around College Station calling around and practically giving up on getting malaria medicine. I sat down in the coffeehouse with a pile of papers to read. This is where I remained inundated in political science game theory with a confused look on my face and tears in my eyes. I went to class. What a waste. I went back to coffeehouse, played 2 rounds of Rummicub while shoveling in dinner before heading to Stacey's to learn game theory. Then, I went back to coffeehouse to read more political science. Now I am home. I want to go to bed. I still have 2 chapters of powerpoint slides to go over before even beginning to study for my Spanish test tomorrow.

What I wish and what is real isn't the same.
