Well, finally here! I've had a few of you holding your breath these past couple of weeks.... I thought it time to put you all at ease and let you know that I arrived safely and am currently still adjusting to the weather, the culture and all that fun stuff*
I haven't taken many pictures yet but I already have many stories to tell! As some of you may or may not know, I'm volunteering at both a maternity clinic and orphanage here in Calapan City... so please pardon the somewhat graphic nature with which I may use to describe any future events in the birthing clinic (mom, please beware*)...
More personally, I must start by saying that this is quite a dream come true for me... even though I may not realize what it is. I have a feeling that I've done something right... and I have exactly six months (give or take :P) to find out why God has brought me here and what he's trying to do in me. Being the short-sighted mortal that I am, this may take a while.
So please, by all means be sure to come along for the ride... it will certainly be a wild one!
