It is now a little less than a month until I leave for New York, then Kerala. I have been very busy this past month with Camp Halfblood (http://web.mac.com/camphalfblood/Camphalf-blood.com/About_us.html) and a youth mission trip to the Mescalero Apache Indian Reservation in New Mexico (which was awesome, by the way). I am more than halfway through my fundraising (thank God!) and am working on getting my passport and other materials in order.
I received an email from Ariel Givens, who is at Bishop Moore College now, with advice about what to bring, what kind of lodging and food I will find and other important things. She mentioned that the hostel where I will be staying has only dialup internet connection, and only from 9:30pm until 6am. Needless to say, I won't be on the internet very much while in India. So, while in Ireland I was able to keep up to date with goings on in the U.S. (especially all the election drama!) I will have to get used to getting all my information late. I will update this blog definitely every month and hopefully every other week, along with all the cool pictures I know I'll be taking!
This week I'll be packing up clothes and other items for my trip because I have yet ANOTHER 2 weeks of camp before the summer is over, and I won't have a lot of time afterwards to pack. I'm meeting my sister in Dallas for a night when she flies back from China, before she heads back to Indiana the next day. This summer has gone by so fast, it's hard to believe that at this time next year I'll be packing up to leave India!
