Welcome!

I was led to Senegal, West Africa this summer by the grace of God. I was able to live there for 6 weeks thanks to many of my friends and family who supported me. Without them, this trip would not have been possible and I am forever grateful. This blog is a collection of my thoughts, experiences, and pictures while in Senegal. Hope you enjoy!

the weekend is finally here!

Ahh! It’s finally the weekend!! And thank God for that! I had an anatomy exam this morning, so I've been dying to get that over with. Plus, I’m about to leave in an hour or two for Charlotte for the Gravediggers Ball. It’s just a big Halloween costume party that a radio station in Charlotte puts on for anyone who wants to come. The best part is, the Backstreet Boys will be there! I know, it may seem strange that I still like-no, let me re-phrase that-love them and that they can still book shows but they actually have a new CD coming out soon and I am a dedicated fan. Their new music is just as good as their older stuff; the only difference is that they’re kind of burnt out now so they had more fans way back when... Michael Jackson’s tribute band will also be there, and I loved him just as much! So this should be a very fun night.

I had originally bought the Daphne costume from Scooby Doo, but it only came in a standard size and it was about 6 sizes too large for me; and the wig didn’t fit right, you could see my brown hair through the orange. Anyway, I sent that costume back and I threw together a different costume from my own closet. I didn’t get the Daphne one until this week so I had no time to go look for a new costume with all the studying I had to do. Now, I will be going as a hippie. It’s not the best, but it was very easy. And cheap too! I guess I’m happy enough with it.

My best friend from home goes to school at UNC-Charlotte so I’ll get to spend some time with her, and go to this party! I’ve been waiting for this weekend for quite some time now. I don’t get to stay for very long on Sunday though; I have a Cru community team meeting at 5pm that I have to get back for. But I don’t mind, I love that as well. I’m supposed to go see some scary movie with a friend on Sunday night, but I’m not sure I’ll be able to do that because I need to work on my outline for our research papers. I wanted to get that done this week before I left, but I just haven’t had time because I’ve been studying for anatomy. So, I guess my Sunday night will be filled with research and outlines. But I guess I don’t mind that either, I finished the rest of any homework that could be due so I won’t have anything else to do but relax and have fun the rest of the weekend!
