Yes I know, two posts in two days! I don't expect this to become an everyday occurrence, but I felt like I had written enough for yesterday. I have to get my shots this week. Typhoid and tetanus. I have the opportunity to take a five dose of liquid typhoid meds that is cheaper and will last longer, but many of my teammates have become very ill during the treatment. I guess it is a temporary symptom that makes it worth it in the end, but during my final weeks of school I cannot risk being sick to my stomach for five days. So I'm opting for the shot. I hate shots. Anything with needles and poking me actually. I had a bad experience with getting my blood drawn yesterday (it really wasn't that bad, but to me it was horrible). So pray for me because I have to force myself to do it. My mom isn't here to drag me there and sit on me to make me get them. When I was younger sometimes that's what it took. Just ask her. I could probably get my best friend Melanie to drag me there, she's a nursing major and nothing really grosses her out. But that would be even more embarrassing. Me and shots don't do well.
On the other hand we raised over $7000 for the orphanage from our Gala! This money goes directly to provide bedding and beds for the children and to buy supplies for the playground we will be building.
If you would like to watch a video about our team click on the link below. It is at the bottom of the page. The first one is a shorter version, the second is a longer version that played during the Gala. I'm trying to get some more pictures of the Gala to show you.

Here is a verse~
When I am afraid, I will trust in you. In God, whose word I praise, in God I trust: I will not be afraid. What can mortal man do to me?
Psalm 56:3-4
I will find another one. Hopefully someone else will send one or two or three.
Love ya, Mom :)
1 Peter 3:13-15 And who is he that will harm you, if ye be followers of that which is good? But and if ye suffer for righteousness’ sake, happy are ye: and be not afraid of their terror, neither be troubled; But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:
So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
Isaiah 41:10
