Today wasn't really that much different then any other day!
I awoke early this morning and spent some time with my Jesus, checked my emails and got ready for the day. However, as I was getting ready the doorbell rang and at that moment I knew something excited was at the door for me! I ran to the door to see the delivery man holding two packages for me!! I was so excited to not only get my packages but to get them both at the same time.
I felt so incredibly loved as I opened up my packages this morning to discover all the goodies inside.
My mom sent me a lovely package with lots of things from home like good peanut butter, chips and salsa and my rice cakes. My lovely, wonderful and amazing friends Emily and Alida sent me a box full of gluten free foods as well as chocolate, teas, and granola bars! It was so nice to get stuff from home, I felt loved and like I got to see my friends and family (cheesy cheesy I know!)
After opening my packages I wrote some letters and postcards and waited for Bernice to come over.
Bernice and I went to financial aid to work out a problem I am having with them, it seems they have charged me a large sum of money that I do not owe them. They asked me to bring my bank statement so hopefully I can get it all figured out tomorrow! After our trip to financial aid, Kelsey, Bernice and I went and exchanged our tickets to go to Newcastle this weekend, instead we will be going to York to see a Viking Festival. It sounds really fun there will be battles and a boat burning, and we get to go to the stardome and see how the vikings navigated.
The three of us went to the post office so I could buy some stamps and send off my letters and postcards and then we stopped by another fruit stand so Bernice could buy some fruit.
I love all the fruit stands around here, their produce all comes from local farmers and it is fun to buy locally instead of from a big grocery store!
I went to my gender class today which was interesting to say the least. I just have a hard time understanding these feminist women, probably because I am not a feminist and don't have the same passions as they do. However it is interesting to learn about and it is a new perspective on life and people that I can learn to understand.
After class I met Kelsey and Bernice at the gym and we went to a circuit training class..it was so intense but I loved it! The instructor was tough but fun and we did not stop moving for an hour I will definitely be sore tomorrow!
I loved today, and as each day passes I am loving it here more and more.
Praise God, he is totally working here not only in my life but in the people around me!
