I don't really know how to feel yet. I don't feel ready; I'm going to miss Vegas a whole lot. It's strange because I've left home for months at a time, but I've never felt that I would miss Vegas this much.
I think it's because I'm scared of change. I know I'm going to come back a changed person. Six weeks in a foreign country with people you don't really know changes you. Part of my fear of change is that Vegas is going to change without me. So much can happen in six weeks.
Either way, I know that going to Bosnia is going to be an AMAZING experience. I'm excited to meet new people and to see God working in Bosnia. I'm excited to experience something new.
The past four months since I've been accepted to be part of this project has been the most challenging, emotionally draining months that I have ever experienced. But I have been blessed in so many ways. I've had many answered prayers and amazing friends to help me through it all.
I have to accept that whether or not I feel ready, it's not up to me. I'm going to go into the next six and a half weeks with an open mind and heart.
Hopefully I'll get a chance to update my blog before I leave for Santa Barbara on Friday. I'll probably post an itinerary of what and where I will be.
As of now, I am 71% funded
