My summer vacation is about to begin! Today I have officially finished my summer online Theology class. What a relief! I have not talked much about my class but it was a bit overwhelming. Now, I need to be careful in what I say, it was not that bad, but when you take a summer class and add a full time job, it feels like you never stop staring at a computer screen. I learned a lot in my Theology class, we had some great discussions and it really opened my eyes to the different perspectives of Christianity. Maybe in a future blog I will write more on this experience, but for now I am a little too busy to think about it.
Like I said before, as soon as it looks like things are going to slow down something comes up. Tomorrow at 2:00, I depart for my two week trip to Europe. This is the reason why my life is busy again. I have never left the United States (well…except for Niagara Falls, Canada) and I am getting a bit nervous. Tonight is designated packing night, because of my class I have not had much time to think about this trip or packing. Well, I guess you could look at this as a good thing, I have not gotten too anxious. I will be traveling with IBI (International Business Institute). My mom is the assistant to the director of IBI, so I am tagging along for part of the trip. IBI is a ten week program for college students, they take four classes totaling 12 credits while traveling the world. I will be joining them for the last two weeks to tour, de Haag- Netherlands, Paris- France, and London- England.
I am looking forward to this experience, touring different cultures. We will be going on some corporate visits, for example, Shell Oil and Ahold. I just checked the weather and it looks a bit gloom and rainy with temperatures around 70 degrees. It could be better, but I we can make it work! I will not be blogging on my trip, but I will be sure to write when I get back (expect lots of pictures). Pray for safe travels and a good experience for all of the IBI students. Thanks!
