let the adventure begin!

so...i have been here in akron, pa orienting for the last week. to follow up on my last post...i did in fact fall in love with just about everyone here, all for different reasons. :) and let me tell you it has been incredible but not easy. when you are surrounded by 130 unique people, all with their own story, it takes a lot of energy not only to get to know them but to share your own story. i will admit, although there wasn't much sleep to be had, it was all energy well spent. we have been saying goodbye since last night and will continue to do so throughout the day. i leave here in 30 minutes. which brings me to the next thing...I WILL FINALLY BE IN GUATEMALA TONIGHT!!! and to say the least, i am excited! it feels as though i am at yet another new beginning and if you know me well you know i love newness and change (despite the packing that is implied. :)) for the next couple of days we will be living in an mcc apartment and orienting to the mcc guatemala team. i can't wait to finally meet the our country reps and the rest of the people serving for mcc in guate! after our official orientation is done we will begin language study for a month, move in with host families and hopefully do some weekend tripping to near by hot spots.

well, there you have it...the brief overview of my next month. hope all is well with you where ever you are. <3
