A Much Needed Update!

Hey guys!

Haven't heard from me in a while, huh? Well, I guess we have some catching up to do then...

I'm sure most (or some) of you know that we have a new intern here, Rosa Burnley!

We were neighbors in New Jersey, and now we are practically sisters! 

She helps my mom do everything she needs help with, and has been a really fun friend!

One day Junior (our good Haitian friend) told me he found a boa constrictor in the computer lab. So of course, we investigated and found it. We trapped it in a box, to let it go outside the next day (or so we thought...). The next day the snake was gone, so we started looking for it. A few minutes later, Junior declares that he thinks it's in the old printer. How he knew this, I have no idea.

After about an hour, we finally found the snake, wrapped up in the printer!

It was SO cool!

Another half  an hour and the five foot long snake was free!

One fun thing I did was work at a medical clinic in a town called Lory!

As some of you might know, my dream is to be a missionary doctor, so it was a really fun experience! I went with my good friend Brianna and we weighed and took people's temperatures, and put together medicine and gave it out to people (all in Creole)!

We also got the chance to weigh a few newborn babies!

Another fun thing we did was go to Labadee with the Gross family, for Caleb's and my birthday!

Labadee is a cruise ship dock that has lots of fun stuff to do....

One of the most exciting things was the food! We haven't had American food in FOREVER!!!

Labadee is home of the longest zip-line over water in the world! 

So of course, we had to try it!

Though once I got up the 500 some feet in the air, I realized that I am TERRIFIED of heights.

Rosa loved it though! (I liked it too, I was just scared out of my mind!)

We sure are missing the Ayars a lot these days... (We love you guys!!!)

Since Stacey isn't here, I took the graduating students pictures for her too! It was fun!

Over the past three months, I have become really good friends with some of the students. I tutor some of them in English, I watch soccer with them in the cafeteria, I participate in chapel three times a week, and I hang-out with them all the time. But now that the school year is over for the seminary, I am so looking forward to next year's school year so I can see my friends again!

Thanks for reading this blog!

Stayed tuned!
