to get things started...

Well, if you've found this blog then you know the basics. I'm heading to Bangkok, Thailand in about a week (on June 4th) and staying for five months. This has been an emotional roller coaster for me. I can't believe it's finally just around the corner! I don't have much to say yet, so I thought I'd get the ball rolling with a top five list so my blog doesn't look so sad and blank.

Top Five Things I'll Miss Most About the U.S. :
1. My friends and family...totally a given
2. My bed...believe me, if you owned my bed, you'd understand.
3. Driving and the freedom it entails.
4. People speaking English as a first language.
5. Easily accessible coffee...I love my caffeine!

  1. God has such HUGE plans for you while you're over there, pooh. i can't wait to hear everything He's doing in your life. the sacrifices you're making will be MORE THAN WORTH IT in light of eternity. you are brave and obedient, and God loves that about you (and so do i!!).

  2. Those are nice top 5 items. I bet you will come up with a top 5 that you enjoy about Thailand pretty quickly. Adriane is right. In your obedience, God is going to powerfully use you in the lives of others. And in the process I know your life with grow amazingly with Him.
