Kenya Dig It?

Wow, it seems like forever ago I was in Kenya, yet also seems just like yesterday I was there. 

There are two trips coming up in January. I am hoping to be able to go on the first trip and then stay for the second trip as well. But it all depends on whether I can firstly get out of school and most importantly the money. If I can't stay in Kenya for the 20+ days I will gladly just do the regular 2 week trip that I have done previously. :) 

My $500 deposit will be due September 12. Oh goodness it's creeping up. Once the deposit is in, time just quickly starts spinning as meetings and getting ready for the trip start to take place and it approaches faster. Yay!

Okay so if I do the 20+ plus days in Kenya I will be leaving January 13. But if I do the 2 week trip I will be leaving January 22. :)

Can't wait!! I miss all my friends there!!

First blog or something...

Hello! :)

I just signed up for this so bare with me as I try to figure this all out! :) I guess this is like blogspot so hopefully it will be easy to work with!

I'll be posting here for random updates and especially when I travel abroad to Africa so my family and friends can see what I am up to over there! 

In January I will be leaving to go back to Kenya for the 4th time. I am hoping I will be able to stay there for a month, but it depends if my teachers let me take off that long with packets of work to do while I am away. So we will see. Either way I will be going to Kenya in January for either 2 weeks or a month. :)

And the person who has inspired me to do all this is the most amazing person ever... Alyssa Milano! :) She really opened up my eyes to the world and showed me how there's many in need. She is very passionate about what she does with UNICEF and her other wonderful charities she works with. I am definitely on this amazing path because of her. :)

Now I hope to do the same and inspire people to help others! It can be in your own backyard or across the world. :) Any kind of giving is precious and the best feeling in the world!  

And on another note, for those that know me personally, and know what I have been going through, my goodness. The doctors still do not know what is wrong with me. I am on to my 4th doctor. =/  Thankfully Lupus was ruled out. I had some blood drawn today, which I passed out lol oops. And will have results back on the 26th so I will update here with results. I just really wish they'd figure it out. Having welts on my body every other week is really painful not to mention unattractive!

So we shall see what happens with that!

 

Until I blog agaiin... :)
