Since I last posted I have had several wonderful experiences. In the Summer of 2014 I studied abroad with 14 other students from several different colleges none from my own (of course). I studied the history of Vikings along with the Archaeological methods that were used to learn about them. This step of faith was huge for me. I was beyond terrified. Never before had I been out of country, never had I been without family for so long, I was with no one I knew, and as a not so great student I figured all this money would be for a failed attempt at credit, but I knew that this wasn't my plan it was God's. The story behind how I even ended up going was a fast one and caught me completely off guard. I was simply relaxing on my bed in January before the Spring semester had begun. The mail had run and I had been sent a flyer from school to study at sea and instantly God said "GO!" and I said "OH SNAP!" and ok. It didn't work out, but I knew I was supposed to go some where and Denmark was presented to me by the Study Abroad Administration and after a bit of prayer I took it and ran. So there's that and It was and experience I will never forget.
This last Summer before I could graduate I needed field credit and with finding a spot came a lot of prayer from me and those around me. Another leap of faith took place as I sent in an application weeks late to the only perfect fit and I was accepted. With a serious time limit I had to deal with the process of a the college it was through and with many set backs came great success. I spent three weeks digging and discovering what was left behind by Native Americans in the region. I learned important things for the field of Archaeology and in December I became a college graduate.
As time goes on I will try to become a much more interesting blogger and maybe a focus for this blog will come about, but if not I am ok with that. I have this blog to document my thoughts and feelings and to remember my experiences. Here are some photos to tie you over.
