Evening all,
So I am into my second week of my internship, and so far the worst part of it is the 7am wake-up. I feel I have a right to whinge a little since
a) I’m a student not used to waking up so early
b) I’m not a morning person, ergo they don’t agree with me
c) It’s winter here. Proper winter. Bloody FREEEZING winter.
d) Since it’s Northern-Hemisphere winter, the sun is later to rise than usual, so it feels even earlier than it is. (I now refer you back to points a and b.)
But apart from this, the internship is great. The kids I work with are all adorable and some are a little bit nuts (which works for me, obviously), and the teachers are all excellent folks. The work rather agrees with me too, as I have previously shared. Oh, and by the by, we have a sledding trip on Friday.
Yes. Yes you are jealous.
If you don’t know by now, God decided, in the immediate aftermath of the March Earthquake, to reveal that part of His cunning plan for me lies in Ye Olde Land of the Rising Sun, and that Meysen comes into it. I get the feeling that I have a particular task to accomplish this trip, and that I’m not just here to meet new and awesome friends, establish connections, play with kiddly-winks and cut up bits of paper. Well, I’ve got about three weeks left here, and so far I’ve not killed any Witch Kings or destroyed any Silver Chairs. I don’t even think any majestic lions have strolled up and made me repeat any signs.
Hmmm…Perhaps I’ve missed them? After all down here the air is thick and it is harder to hear His voice.
Well, that is all for my adventure update. Any prayer you’d care to shoot up on my behalf is appreciated.
Love you all,
(Except Stalker Steve, not to be confused with Colorado Steve.)
