So it's almost April already and that means the end of the semester is coming up fast and than summer vacation. I have found a summer job, which I am really excited about, I applied at a YMCA center in the Rockies (Estes Park) and I was hired. It's not exactly the job I want, but I can't complain, it's going to be an amazing experience and I am really excited! I will be there from June 1 - August 21. So I will keep in touch and should have more time for keeping my blog updated!
I hope everyone has a fabulous week!

Catching up...
It's been a long time since I have updated, I didn't realize how much time has actually past. I have been really busy with school and work and other things. In the past month and a half, a lot has happened!
The last time I wrote was middle of February and I was sick. I am starting to feeling a little better, still dealing with the headaches and stomaches, but they are getting better, as my stress level goes down so does the stomaches and headaches. I am learning different ways to deal with both of these. So February not much else happened.
Than March came.. and this year, definitely came went out roaring. I can't believe that we got snow this past weekend.. at least 3 inches.. crazy, but you would never be able to tell, it's all melted already.
Spring Break came and it was amazing. This year I participated in another mission trip, I had the opportunity along with 16 other women to go to Washington, Pennsylvania and work for Habitat for Humanity. The experience was quite an experience, we 'mudded' and sanded the drywall, it was very messy, but fun, learning a new skill is always fun for me. I don't know if I could do it for awhile though. So we left the Saturday March 14 and stayed in Toledo, Ohio for a night and then 
continued on our way to Pennsylvania, we ended up getting lost, but thanks to Ethel (my GPS, yes we named her), she got us there safe and sound. We stayed in a beautiful church the whole week on either the floor or air mattresses (most of us broke down and bought an air mattress while we were there). Friday (20) we took half a day to work on the house, it was also our last day and we spent the afternoon in Pittsburgh, which is a really pretty city, and we had dinner and than returned the church only to go to bed and get up the following morning at 4 am to be on the road at 
5 am. We returned safe and sound to Fond du Lac at about 4:30 pm (Central time). I was so blessed to have had this experience, I learned about myself as a person and how God really does work in mysterious ways.

So that is about it.. still trying to make decisions about school and everything.. so keep me in your prayers that God leads me in the right direction!
