I know I promised to get better at blogging, sorry. I am improving somewhat. Well, its now May 5th and my birthday was yesterday, for those of you who know, I'm a Star Wars fan and May the 4th be with you. Now, lets see, life is a bit boring right now. Last Monday I accompanied some family friends and my mother and I went to a wedding, I came home and became sick. Stupid stomach bug. Tuesday and Wednesday were hard days and I didnt do much but lay around and drink water. Thursday was a bit better, still a day of rest, and Friday I went to Rasika's with some friends. They threw me a surprise birthday party. I am proud to say I have some good friends.(: Saturday around 1 I was picked up from Rasika's house and headed to the spa for a day of pampering with mom and Cherie. I received my first facial, which was amazing by the way.. And also a gel manicure, they look nice.(: After this we headed to Cherie's apartments and hung out with the Tom's for a while, then decided on dinner at the Hyatt. At the beginning of the meal I already wasn't feeling well again.. Its safe to say I wasn't completely over the stomach bug yet. After dinner we went home and I fell fast asleep. It's Sunday now, and mom thinks we shouldn't go to church because "Just 12 hours ago you weren't okay Savannah" blah blah blah... Okay mom. Whatever. So I'm home, writing this blog.
There was my birthday.
Now something new, the orphanage. I asked for donations for my birthday gifts instead of actual presents. There have been some generous donations made for the Home of Hope and I have an idea of how I will spend the money I get. I feel that as a teacher I should be able to teach in more than just one way, because as we all know, there are different learning techniques for different people, so I have asked the head of the orphanage if it would be possible for me to bring in a TV and a DVD player for the home. Since my mom and grandparents and Michael and I are going to Singapore and Malaysia in May, we will look at prices of them and how much I have and see if we can pick up those items. I'm excited to say the least.
My grandparents are coming in too. They are flying standby so its a bit difficult to know an exact date of when they will arrive, but hopefully this Tuesday. Michael is coming in Thursday I think.. For those of you that don't know, Michael is my mothers boyfriend. So the whole gang is coming in soon. And then on May 12th we are all boarding the plane and heading off to Singapore, then Malaysia. I can't wait to see them.
And the last thing I shall talk about today, Family Camp.
My wonderful church, Word Of Life, Chennai, has a Family Camp every year. The Family Camp is one weekend where we stay in a resort, and the parents have sessions with the Pastor, and the kids have seperate ones. As you may know, Im not a parent, nor a child, but my Pastor's wife, Sheralyn, or Sher, messaged me on facebook asking if I would be interested in leading the children that weekend! YES. Of course! I am so excited for this also.
God has been doing some amazing things in my life and Im very thankful for everyone and everything that I have. Love you guys and thanks for reading!
