Right now I am sitting with my foot on my desk, icing my shin. Why am I icing my shin? Because while in England I have taken up a new sport. Hockey. But English hockey, which means you play on an astro turf/tennis court ish field, and the teams/goals are set up like regular hockey, but your stick is half the size (will post picture soon) and the puck is just as hard, but in the shape of a ball. Well I did not bring shin guards to England - meant to bring them and my cleats back after Christmas but forgot - and tonight I took a puck to the shin - ouch ouch ouch! It swelled up within 10 minutes. So I now have a good lump there, and it hurts a bit to move. Exciting! haha.
Today I taught my first Pathfinders class, I was really a bit anxious about it, there are 15 kids in my class and I was worried they would not listen to me. But it went really well. We did group presentations on a Bible Parable/Miracle of their choice, and then I taught them how to make friendhship bracelets! I just started learning yesterday, and I love it, I had always wanted to learn and now I finally am, teaching the class was really fun. At first I was not sure about Pathfinders, I had never done it in my home church before, and I felt like I had no idea what I was doing, but it is actually a great thing for the kids. For those of you who don't know, Pathfinders is like my Church's version of Boy Scouts. They learn useful things like camping, simming, how to tie knots and cook food etc, and also learn about the Bible and Church.
I miss my family, and I was planning on going to Spain for ACA in the summer, and I hope I can stick with that plan, because part of me just wants to go home. 4 months until ACA, 5 months until home :D.
XOXO
