Something to note, to your right, 'At A Glance' gives quick background info of the country/state I'm currently at and will be updated as I travel (I promise!). Will try my bestest to blog frequently but in the event where Internet access is unavailable or in time constraints, your patience will be very much appreciated!
Finally, as you may have noticed, I don't have a tagboard. Basically 'cause I think the 'comments' function would do just fine so please feel free to use it as a shoutout!
Alright, now that necessities have been said and done, it's 1 day to my departure tml. How am I feeling? Honestly, quite jaded. A little panicky. Blame it on all the previous hassles of settling airtickets, accomodations, enrolments, packing or rather the lack of it, bills, payments, the list goes on... But not to worry, I reckon the euphoria will come once my feet steps on American soil.
Through it all, God's hand has been so evident. He has opened doors, introduced people, wash away fears and doubts. God is so good and He's been amazing to me! Finally decided to initiate an email to my roommate, Caroline Smith, few weeks back. Got a pleasant surprise when she said she just came back from her exchange program in guess where... NUS, Singapore!! for the summer. So yup, been exchanging emails with her and found out we have quite a lot in common!
Am really thankful that she's nice and friendly and helpful... expecting it to be great while we're rooming together! News like that somehow relieves the unconcious concern of getting through the unfamiliarity and awkward pauses in first mtgs and having to educate people that SG's not part of China. Haha! Unfamiliarity lessens with the fact that I'll see my churh's former Vicar's son! @ least I know there's someone who'll know a good church we can go to while I'm there. Praise God! =)
