skittles

ahhhh
we are now offically at 9
9 is less then 10
9 is a single digit number
oh my gosh

so today i recieved a email from carly stewart called "introducing the feburary volunteers"
and there was the picture and little write up on the four people who are doing footprints.
there was myself and a lady named laura who is 25 and a nurse from sask.
there was a lady named dara who is 27 and also a nurse. Dara and Laura both volunteered for a thing called mercy ship, which is kinda of a floating clinic that goes along the coast of africa, neither of them knew that the other had applied for footprints, so thats kinda cool taht they are going to reconnect, and when i met laura she told me that herself and dara where probably going to do home base care in mozabique for there outreach, which i think is kinda cool.
the last one is Callan he is from south africa and the same age as me, carly didnt mention what kind of outreach he does but she did mention that he's very involved in youth ministy so maybe he wants to do a youth outreach, which is also what i would like to do, so maybe him and I will get sent out together which would be cool, i would be down with that seeing as he is from there and would be comfortable with the culture and money and traveling africa cause he does after all live there.
but that also makes me wonder about the difference in culture for the blacks and the white...
so yeah.

it was weird looking through that thing and knowing that in like 10 days these people are going to be my imediate group of friends,i wonder how they will affect my life.
im scared of how im going to go through this whole thing without having the support system im use to right there beside me.
its gonna be intense.
