Home Sweet Home

     Hey guys! How y'all doin? Just wanted to give you guys one last little update before I officially consider this adventure over. 
     I am home! I made it! I had to travel for 36 hours to get home but I made it back safely, just a little worn out.  I have been home for two weeks now (I got in on February 23) and am working on adjusting and getting back to some semblance of normalcy.  It has been a bit rough being home, to be honest.  I really did miss you all, and that's the good thing about being home, is all of you! But the rest is hard.  I really am not enjoying the cooler/cold weather.  I also have been striving to find my own routine for quiet times, and I've realized I have to make time for personal worship times as well.  YWAM does such a great job of giving you routines and setting aside time for these things to be done, but leaving that structure has been challenging. 
     The other thing I really miss is my team and my classmates.  I never realized how attached you can get to people after just five months, but man am I attached to them! I've been finding time to text or message several of them every once in a while, but its never going to be like living with them was. I miss them so very much.
     I am also dealing (naturally) with a bit of culture shock... after living out of suitcases for the past five months, I'm amazed at all of the useless junk I have.  I'm beginning to (slowly...) start going through my room to get rid of all these pointless, unnecessary things.  I'm also becoming amazed at how big the world/mainland is haha.  After living on islands and then flying from California to Colorado I was able to see the land stretch around me, and it was a bit overwhelming, and then my mind reminded me that that was only a fraction of the whole world.... amazing isn't it? :)
     I would love to hang out with any of you, so if you want to get together just let me know :) I am hoping to be able to do a small event to see you guys and to allow you all to see me and some of my pictures, if that works out I will let y'all know! Love you all! and until next time.
