It's been quite a week.
Tuesday: after 4 hours of sleep I wake up to watch my beloved MJ's memorial (Yes, I'm a fan of Micheal Jackson like some people are fans of sports teams, even through the rough years.) then sat in front of my phone all day waiting for that glorious call that would reveal my future for the fall!
Wednesday: was a blur. I think I told everyone and their mom that I was a roadie, even if it didn't mean anything to them. I got to tell all my students at The Element too, unfortunately that means I won't be able to join them for camp.
Thursday & Friday: consisted of mostly working, but I Lauranne and I did buy our tickets to San Diego! I started packing, wrote my support letter, and my roommate's birthday party was friday night. there was much dancing.
Saturday: I woke up at 7am to prepare a garage sale with my roommates. One of my students made cupcakes and brownies and sold them their to help me too. She's so sweet. My mom and her fried drove up at the end to pick up my bed and as many boxes as possibly could fit in the truck... so this was the first night I slept without a bed.
Sunday: I worked a couple hours in the morning (and brought in the remaining cupcakes to sell in the break room) then came back to the continued garage sale and started to read over my pre-arrival activities. I also got my first gift of support! So at the end of week 1 I have just over $200. I'm 1/10th of the way there! $1800 to go and 21 days to do it.
I move the rest of my things back to St. Pete friday, the same day I find out my region and teammates! Please continue to pray for the HR staff at Invisible Children as they assemble these teams and that the money keeps coming. Praise that my friend who works at Kinko's said I can print off everything I need for free at his work! Until the next time we speak here's a video to inspire and challenge you.
