First Week of School

Well I made it through the first week and it wasn't so bad!
Last night Bernice, Kelsey and I went and checked out the trampoline club...yes they have a club for jumping on trampolines and doing tricks. It was really neat but a little on the pricey side about $113 for the semester so we decided to go with the gym memberships. We got the gym memberships for $120 which is a good deal because it is $40 dollars a month but the guy was really nice and gave it to us for February until June 3rd.
After that Kelsey and I came back and we watched the first disc of the first season of friends!
I have never seen friends before but Kelsey has every season so by the time I come back I will have been completely caught up and whatever it was I have been missing all of these years.
After Kelsey left I got on skype to talk to Barry and he told me he sent me an email. I checked my email and found what was probably the best surprise of my lifetime, a flight confirmation to England from March 13th-20th. I was so happy I actually cried (I am still on the emotional side, crying is not going to become a regular thing) I felt so blessed.
I was able to be skyped in into the old bible study it was really wonderful to see everyone and be apart of it for a little. I didn't stay for the whole thing it was getting too late (almost 3 in the morning) but what I did stay for was great.
Today I went to my theater class and I am really excited for it, it sounds really interesting and the people seem like a lot of fun.
Today Bernice, Elizabeth, Kelsey and I all went to the grocery store and finally went grocery shopping. We went to ASDAS which is a huge grocery store and it even had a lot of gluten free and organic items which was refreshing. We called a taxi to take us home and waited outside in the cold while it was snowing for about 20 minutes but it was well worth it.
Tonight we signed up for our gym memberships and I was able to have my first workout in almost a week. A workout that was long over due but it was nice to check out the equipment and get my abs into shape.

I am really starting to like it here now that I am getting into a routine and everything is starting to come together.
I just want prayer that God will continue to reveal to me my purpose here and what he is calling me to do.
The prayers are appreciated!

Oh and I had fish and chips today (you have to its England!)
The fish was surprisingly good but way too greasy for my liking, and I have had better chips here but it was worth the try.

Here is a link to my friend Alida's blog she made me a prayer card, and I wasn't able to send it to everyone's email address. If you want to save it on your computer or print it out to remember to pray for me that would be wonderful! Thanks again!
