You may or may not have heard me talking about studying abroad in Africa this spring, but chances are you have at least heard me mention it...I've been dreaming about it and talking it up for almost a year now. I was interested in this great program through GoEd and the non-profit, Food For the Hungry. The program has its students studying in Rwanda and Uganda, going on a safari for spring break, and doing an internship with Food For the Hungry. It looks like an amazing semester, and I think it is a perfect fit for me.

Well.... I worried that after all that talk, this day would never come, but it did!
I GOT IN!
I just received my acceptance email :
"Congratulations!
We are pleased to announce that Food for the Hungry has selected you to participate in the Go ED. Africa Semester Study Abroad Program for Spring 2010."
WOW! Thank you to everyone who wrote me a reference, encouraged me, and prayed for me.
I decided to make this blog so that anyone who wants to can see how I am doing in the time before, during, and after my semester in Africa. I hope that you will pray for me and all of the people I will come into contact with.
Stay tuned!! Love you guys!
