Oh, Mexico...

Hello to everyone! Yes, it's been a while since I've posted. I've been enjoying the pleasantries of doing relatively nothing! :-) School has been over now for about 2 weeks, and I couldn't be more ecstatic! I ended the semester pretty well...passed everything...what more can you ask for, right, lol? The gig went pretty well and received a pretty good response. More to come in the future, I'm sure. Other than the end of school and the gig, I've just been working at the coffee shop and chilling! It's been pretty amazing...

In two days, however, craziness begins again! I'll be leaving Nashville on Friday morning to spend 6 weeks in Alamo, TX/Reynosa, MX. I'm pretty excited to see what's in store but a little nervous at the same time, I'll admit. This is a completely different experience than studying abroad, and although I will be using Spanish quite a bit, I'll also be doing a lot of other jobs like cooking, cleaning, construction, etc., etc....actually, I'm not 100% sure what I'll be doing, yet, but I know it's going to be awesome. I'm going into this with an open mind and an open heart, and I'm ready to be used for God's work. Viva Mexico!

I'll try to update this as often as I can, just so you guys know that I don't have the swine flu and that I wasn't kidnapped by the drug cartel...I'm going to be fine, lol. Hope everyone is having an amazing summer!

Mucho amor,
Amelia
