In the beginning..

Alright! So this will serve to update anybody who happens to have a vested interest (read: MONETARY DONARS lol) in my adventures overseas. I'll try to post anything and everything I feel you may be interested in, and will probably post a lot more than you're interested in knowing, but that's just part of the fun! Muahaha. Furthermore and perhaps even more importantly, this will hopefully save me from the arduous task of telling the same stories/ information times without number. Double win.

Today, I finally got all the paperwork officially out of the way and taken care of. Went down to the GC and delivered it in person to Carol Miller, the nice lady I have exchanged so many emails with and finally got to meet. Hah. While there, I was reminded of the 'Preperation for missions' material I was suppossed to have done. Uh oh, uh started. They showed me a big book, said it was a series of questions on the info in the book and said I would need to do RESEARCH on the place i was visiting. Oh crap that sounds like school! However, when the director found out I used to live there, he very conveniently waived my having to do it :) Very nice.

I would say that was my first official blessing relating to this, but that is hardly the case. Thank you to everybody who has so generously donated to the cause, I will be buying my plane tickets tomorrow (by far the biggest expense I expect to incur).

Think that's all for now.
