SO I survived my first full day here in Indonesia
I actually like the city a lot more than I thought I would.
I haven't had too much interaction with locals (major language barrier) but I am enjoying the trip.
We are staying at the CMA (Christian Missionary Alliance) Guest House here in Jakarta and I'm sharing an air-conditioned room with two other girls
We got to meet a professor at a theological school today that we are going to be spending more time with tomorrow
We had dinner at the Wycliffe organization of Indonesia and got to hear about how God is using them here
It's amazing to see how many languages there are here and how many still need to be translated.
Got my first book report handout all typed out.
Prayers please: i have a presentation in the morning on Culture and Etiquette in Indonesia and then have about 4 more to work on before the trip is over :-/ they each require a 4 page single space hand-out so i'm a little stressed out because we don't get a lot of free time..i guess that's what nights are for!
Love ya guys!

made it!
After 15 1/2 hours of flying we made it to Hong Kong and got to go explore eating local fried rice and driving around on trams and trains up peaks
It was pretty beautiful in Hong Kong but very touristy. It reminded me of almost every other big city.
Another four and a half hour plane ride and we made it to Jakarta, Indonesia.
We are staying at a guest house until Sunday morning here and then will move on to our next destination.
I have a lot of work ahead of me so prayers greatly appreciated.
Love you guys and talk to you soon!!

PRayers appreciated!
Thanks again everyone and God Bless

Oops!
So i forgot to post last night before I went to bed, but luckily for me YOU are sleeping right now so it's okay haha
Yesterday (Thursday) I did a whole lot of nothing
It was raining and I melt in the rain so I stayed inside
I made some new jewelry pieces, posted pictures, and created a "pre-fall sale" (look at my facebook page if you care)
I ate Chinese food (YUM) and then at night watched Legends of the Fall with the HOlladay's (great movie!)
Ya so sorry that was boring but that was my day!
I come home Monday so see you all soon!

A piece of soap stone insa gave me to shape!
