...what?

thats what i asked myself this morning when i woke up @ 7am. today is a mandatory day off so we can pack and relax before we leave for Guatemala at 4am on Friday morning. im sooo excited to be going but i was REALLY excited to sleep in today...

im not quite sure why but i can never sleep in when i want to but once i have to be somewhere i sleep in until the last minute. oh well, beggars cant be choosers.

this blog is the last blog i will be posting for a little over a week so, i wanted to update you on everything that has been going on.

this past week our 3rd year ladies along w. Tepy, Elisa, & Lindsey all went to New York City for a microsoft show. oh how i missed them so! the 1st & 2nd years have been running through dramas and songs like crazy. we all preached our final sermons this week. we started on Monday and then had a group each day. i preached on the last day (wednesday). i was so nervous but it turned out well...until i was done. PC counted me saying "um" 31 times. needless to say, i had to re-preach along w. taking my scripture test after church

i felt a little weird because i knew that everybody had already heard it. but that is quite alright. When i was finished PC said he took lots of notes. now i wasnt sure if he was serious or not. i walked over said "thank you" and grabbed my paper. i didnt look at it until i was about half way home. i opened that paper and there were no notes but it said this: "Kali-Awesome-A." i was slightly ecstatic but didnt really show it.

after last week my emotions have been kind of numb. ive had the urge to cry at the most random times but i wont. its really weird...

on a lighter note, i got a job. well, i may have gotten 2 jobs! :) I was hired @ Panera Bread and i had my orientation on Tuesday afternoon. Then, Old Navy called me for a 2nd interview!! im pumped!!! 2 jobs was my goal for this summer. if there was a way for me to finagle 3 i totally would. now, my next step in this process is to get a car. i need something to get me back and forth and with one job being in portsmouth and the other in kittery, i need something reliable. the only thing holding me back right now is money. it takes money to buy a car and i dont have any!

one of my aunts just sent me a check in the mail to help w. some last minute things on the trip. it is such a blessing because if she didnt then i would have nothing. no money to go w. or no money to get the last minute things that i needed.

anyway, thats really all i wrote for was to update you on the happenings of me as we prepare for Guatemala. oh...& graduation is only a little over 2 weeks away. but we're not talking about that right now.

any questions please email me or comment here and let me know! :)
