It'll be a week tomorrow since I left Ponca. It's weird how in some ways it seems like it's been forever and it some ways it seems like I just left. I love it here. I've been very blessed that my relationships are all still natural. It's kind of cool to be here a bit older and with a bit more understanding.
I am in charge of developing and implementing an internship program. There's an intern here already that I need to start working with... it's quite daunting! I know that God's got it under control and He can write a better internship program than I can.
Things are going well and I am adjusting fairly quickly.
Here's a few of my first observations:
It's cold! Everywhere!
It's very hilly and I'm expected to walk myself UP those hills!
I drink far less coke here and much more hot tea.
They drive on the opposite side of the road.. which means I have to look the other way first to avoid getting run over!
Aaaaand... I'm walking to work in the cold... that means I need to get up with enough time to blow dry my hair before I leave the house!!

There have been plenty of spiritual things happening as well and I've had several blog ideas running through my head.. but when I started typing this is what happened! I'll be more spiritual next time. I promise!
