hello again! It has been quiet awhile since I have posted anything! Sorry about that! Im getting a little behind now though because I still haven't told you about the rest of Poland and all of my 10 day break in Italy! My brother John actually was able to come for that break and now on my next 10 day break my brother Danny is coming over! We are going to go to both Fatima- which is in Portugal, and Ireland! I am so thankful that I get to see them both! This past weekend I was planning on going to Prauge but was unable to do so unfortunately, my cousin is living there! But it was nice to stay back. I had a relaxing weekend, and at my favorite part I was able to take a hike to a mostly frozen waterfall. IT was soo fun! In front of the waterfall was this 15 or 20 foot mountain of straight ice, covered in a little snow, so it was possible to climb. It was like straight up though and was really hard to climb because the snow would just fall from under your feet as you were climbing- but of course we just kept going, and eventually got up. Then after taking some pretty cool pictures of course, we slid down it like a slide! Except it was like really really fast and awesome!! But it was also just really beautiful, the woods alone are breath- taking, but it was so awesome to round a corner in them and then be run smack in the face into a waterfall! And of course there were these awesome icicles like the length of my body and stuff- basically it was just too legit to quit! It reminded me of Lord of the Rings!

Anyway, other than that my weekend was pretty peaceful. It was very nice to stay back for the another time. Midterms have come and gone, and now we have only about 6 or 7 weeks left I believe. Its crazy to think that, my Dad is right- he always says that days are what is so long, but that months and years just fly by! I sure will miss Gaming when I leave, it has become another home to me, just like the many students that came before me, and I am sure all after. Life is really such an adventure!

I also ask for your prayers. The father of Maude Green passed away from a heart attack while she was over here. She has gone home to Nashville for the funeral and everything, but then will be returning. So pray for her please! She has a special place in my heart, especially because she is the pretty much the only other person from Tennessee that I know at my school. I really appreciate it!

Thanks for checking up on me guys and taking time to read my blog!

God Bless you! And I am praying for you!
