Travels Along

About over 4 months ago my friend Jedidiah posted a Video on my wall. That Video made me want to come and visit him in San Diego. After weeks and weeks of waiting I'm FINALLY HERE!!!!!! I have been waiting so long for a so called "vacation." There has been so much running through my head with college and potential internships I want to take. The thing is I feel as if I'm growing up so fast. It seems like only yesterday I was just 14 and entering into the strange big High School realm of excitement. Now senior year is closely ending. 68 Days till I walk the aisle to get my Diploma. I'm in the Invisible Children office it has been so great to see this whole shebang. I tried Sushi for the 1st time witch was very interesting. I really liked it. I potentially would like to live here. A few days ago I went to the Ancient caves of the Aztecs. It was so interesting. I took this picture not knowing it would make this. Can you see the face?

the last 50 minuets of my Childhood.

Well heres to my Childhood and being a kid. I have less than 50 minuets to soak it all in and just breathe. Yes this is an exciting step in my life turning 18 but there will be challenges. No doubt this means I will be making my own decisions as far as a car, credit card, cell phone plan, and other things. I take a look on the past year when I first turned 17. It was nice. No more seeking into R rated movies or actually buying a M rated game. I think of the great things that were given to me over the past year. My good friend did leave for an extended period of time but that did not change our friendship or who I was. I had began to connect with a house group through a church and have been going ever since. It has been a great blessing. Also at the tender age I had dramatically been moving with Invisible Children. I cannot say it enough. My experience with IC has been a huge part of my life. I still remember not wanting to do the screening at my school but I took that leap of faith and made sure that it would happen. In 21 I will be going to San Diego to visit Jed and the IC office. I am so excited. Well I'm going to enjoy these last 40 minuets I have but I want to leave you with this. Lyrics from Angles & Airwaves.

New Things...

I have not blogged in a while but I'm starting again. Many things are happening. Graduation in T-Minus 97 Days. I am eager to get out of High School but sad to leave. My Birthday is this week. Crazy 18! I can't believe it. The one age that defines I can do some things on my own. Credit Cards, Lotto tickets, car payments, and own cell phone plan. I have looked at a lot of things over the past couple of weeks as far as my life through the last 6 months and it has been a huge blessing. Just last year I thought I would never be the same because I lost a friend. I thought I'd be alone and depressed. But I have found that in God he can make everything beautiful in his time. I hope to travel more and more through the times to come. Costa Rica last summer was a Blast. I have met some of the most humble people on the earth. It was an experience of a lifetime! That's all for today. It's 37 degrees in Chicago. Remember Peace and Love. :)
