So, I am definitely a person that GOES, GOES, GOES!! I enjoy being busy; lately, however, I just don't have any more in me to push harder! I have finally realized WHAT is the issue. BURNOUT. Words that echo far into anyone's soul. I need to spend a few minutes stopping and making time for me prior to attending the next event. If I can learn the proper balance, all will be well. Also, Ashley has been showing me the proper way to eat....apparently, I am not supposed to eat out for every meal! lol!! I am bettering myself through spending less money at the grocery store and training myself to eat basic food. Jimmy, a man from sukkot (actually, someone really didn't like me a few years ago), sat me down and encouraged me to press on towards another goal. I have been thinking alot about his request, and I think I like the idea. Now, the challenge is to find WHAT I can do. Scholarship money is out of the question, so I could try for grants. Class is going well....the kids are all working hard. I received a new student today, but her mother is willing to work with me in any means necessary to catch her up to standards....this will be hard work and worth it. I also want to begin thinking of a fall goal..............and fast! My summer goal was a complete success....traveling to Haiti and learning to fit into a whole new culture....fun!

Fun memories I want to remember are.......the only think our cook knew in Haiti was the word, "Chicken", the new year's migit story =O,appreciates how the hair college is an equal opportunity employeer. The stylist chosen for me had a shaking disease. All the same, the bad cut was SOOO worth the ridiculousness of the situation. "Sir, ok, Ill be honest....I have never succeeded in cutting a man's hair, but I usually cover the gap up before the instruct...or sees." (this is proceeded by a evil nerdy laugh!) LOL, BUTTERFLY KISSES at Luke and Kierstyn's wedding! LOL, While the Great Clips lady is cutting my hair, "OH, also does your salon sell lice shampoo?? It's bad this time for me. (Lady stares and drops comb!) No? ..that's OK, I'll remember to grab some the next time Walgreens has a sale." =), Today's Mission: go to family reunion, act like a creeper, and hit on second cousins I will never see again. =), is officially BACK!! Next time though, PLEASE remind him to take Windex when he does medical missions and/or prays for people. Boy, wouldn't the Haitian people just freak if after praying, he grabbed his bottle of Windex and start squirting....skin disease.....NO PROBLEM!!, My favorite experiencen in Haiti was when I found a bunch of ladies washing clothes in tubs.....I grabbed a tub, started washing, and we got a sing-a-long going....they repeated what I sang and then I repeated what they sang! Good times, good times!
