We had a connecting flight, and I was sitting next to Levi for both. We talked pretty much the whole time!:)
Being home feels pretty normal, but at the same time it still feels like somethings missing. I am really glad to be home, though. It's just weird, I guess, to have so many memories that no one else in my family has. You know what I mean? Almost everything I do my family shares in. I guess for you, being out of the house and at college, its not so strange. But because I've been homeschooled and I still live at home, its weird to not be able to fully share something with my family. No matter how discriptive I can be, they'll never know exactly what it was like.
But, anyways, so far my week has been pretty busy. On Saturday, we went and picked James and Ellie up from camp. On Sunday we had a picnic at church. Something happened on Monday, but I don't remember what it was. :) Hehe Tuesday and today my sister, Ellie, and I had volleyball camp. It was good to play and review the skills. Ellie had a blast! She's only ten, and this is her first time really playing. She loved it! I am so sore! And will be for a couple days.:/

I totally understand. I just finished my finals on Saturday, so I know the feeling!
Yeah, studying abroad was an amazing experience! Definitely the best decision I've made in college so far!
I go to Baylor University, it's a pretty big Christian school in Waco, Texas. Actually, it's the biggest Baptist university in the world - although I'm not actually baptist haha
Are you from Pennsylvania as well, or do you just go to school there?

Hi Emily,

It would probably be better if you could buy the earlier ticket. If that isn't possible than the later one will be okay. I don't have everyone's intinerary yet so don't know when everyone else is coming in.

I've done a bit - I lived in England for a while and last year I studied abroad in the Netherlands and backpacked through Europe. I've been on a couple of mission trips to Mexico as well. Never been anywhere like Papua New Guinea before though!
Where do you go to school?

Hey! Nice to meet you! I'm good - getting more excited for this trip now that it's getting closer! Have you done much traveling or mission trips before?

Yeah, we're actually going over there, across the world! Wow! Every time I think of it, it's like the caption on my page says, I'm just blown away, that the Lord would be sending me to somewhere like P.N.G. It's really an amazing thought, and sometimes seems unreal. But it's real alright! Hehe!
I guess, what I think about most, when I think about the trip, is who my group will be, who I will be sharing this amazing experience with. But I'm excited about all the things you said too.
I was just telling my brother the other day, that I just don't want to go into this trip being naive. You know what I mean? And being gung-ho excited, for some reason makes me feel like I'm not being smart. But I am really excited!
