soooo sorry that I havent written in a long while.... but heres an email that I sent to some people about what has been going on in my life lately!!! hope u enjoy it.....
Hey everyone,
I havent really wrote many emails lately, sorry I have been really busy! I miss you all though and hope everything is going great with you. I just was writing to update everyone a little bit of what I have been up to.
I have traveled with my little gymnasts, and they have been doing alright! I love coaching them! We practice every tuesday and thursdany night, and it is tons of fun! I have been going in to tumble every once and awhile, and I ended up getting a half layout!!! I am super excited, I have never been able to do that before! So, since I work there i get to go into the gym anytime i want and practice! I love it, its the best job for me!
My missions team just finished our last weekend trip out! We loved it.... it was prolly one of our favorite trips, this one wasnt too far away, it was in Miami, Oklahoma, but everything went so smooth and it was moire relaxing and fun! It has been a great experience, so I signed up for an interview to be on the team again next yr!
I just got back from pre-enrollment today, I cant believe its that time already in the year! So next yr im gonna be a jr. in college... ok so i still feel to young to be in college... this is crazy! But yeah, I signed up for 19 credit hours next semester.... what am I thinking?!?!?!? Its gonna be a tough one! But hopefully i can do it! I am gonna be taking Analtical grammar, expository teaching, apologetics, cross cultural church planting, personal evangelism, and church history!!! Oh boy!!! Tough semester ahead!
Spring Break was a blast! I went home for the week this year, and hung out with my family and friends! Tons and tons of fun. I miss everyone already! But then I slept through my alarm.... im still baffled at this one... i dont know how that happened/??? and I totally missed my plane... so I had to buy a new plane ticket... ouch! That one hurt! Yeah so needless to say... im broke!!! hahahah! Its all good though!
Other than all that stuff, and all that traveling, I have been super busy!!! Schoolwork is tough, but im hanging in there! Paper after paper.... just when i thought i am getting ahead... all of a sudden I notice I have a project due the next day or something... craziness!!! I do love it here....sometimes I get overwhelmed... but i still love it!
So I have chaged somethings up a little bit after praying alot!!!! Im NOT changing my majors, but changing my direction in majors!!! I have decided, that a more effective ministry for me would be to start a "healing house" for women and children (somewhere Im not sure yet), that have been sold into the slave and prostitute industry... where I could help train them in different careers they can go into, with bible study, personal ministry, and to counsel them.... so that means... Danielle will prolly be at Ozark an Extra year :(.... to take extral counseling classes and psychology classes. But I feel that this would be a great way to reach out to the lost! If things work out... I might be doing my internship in Cambodia at the "Rapha House" .(and who would of thunk it...they are looking for someone to help them out that is trained in cosmetology???...hmmm.. (ok God..i get it!)... to help there in the FUTURE...not yet.... we'll see!!! So please keep that in your prayers!
I miss you all, and It would be great to hear what God is doing in your lives, and to-hear what you have been up to! Keep me posted, remember im stuck in the mid-west, so im out of the loop!!tehe!
Love Ya All,
