So my Bolivia mission trip team is doing a 34-day fasting chain, where each member of our team fasts a day from 9PM-9PM the next day.
I almost forgot that today was my day but thankfully I remembered it time. I think when you’re fasting you really become aware of how awesome food is and how easy it is to just take a nomnom out of a delicious, freshly cooked meal that you’ve only dreamt about the past five months prior to reuniting with home-cooked food. And realize how silly it was of you to sign up to fast on the day of the ice cream social at church. LOL.
But that’s okay. A joyful servant is a fulfilled one, right?? TIME TO FEAST ON THE WORD OF GOD. AMIRITE!!
THAS RITE.
I’m super happy. I’ve honestly enjoyed every aspect of Rice this semester—even pulling those all nighters for studio and studying for finals during dead days. God has truly given me joy in everything, and I’m pretty much in love with the people at Rice. In hindsight, Rice is clearly the most perfect school I could ever ask for in aspects that I didn’t even consider. Coming back from summer conference, Rice was clearly the most diverse group out of the 20ish schools that attended, which makes me so thankful to be here. I’ve never felt more at home, and I’m definitely going to miss everyone, especially the graduating seniors. I love my church. I love architecture. I love RUF. I love Martel.
this probably sounds pretty gushy but I just can’t believe how fast time goes. I feel like I have 4 different families here and definitely I’m not quite ready to leave yet. But God is good; summer will be nice. I’m excited to go back.
Till August, my dear loves! <3
ps. more to come on summer conference later.
