Almost There!

So, I thought since I would be leaving the country for a few short months, I would stick with helpful cliche of creating a blog. So if you're dying to know what I'll be spending my days with while away at Oxford, here is the place to see it! I've decided to not go on Facebook, answer my phone, Instagram, etc. until I return so that I can be fully and completely present where God has placed me in the UK.

For a little bit of background if you're not quite sure what I'm doing, I will be on a plane in a little under 48 hours headed for good 'ol Oxford, England. Cheerio. I will be studying C.S. Lewis and Creative Writing at the University as well as traveling to London, meeting British folk, and, I'm sure, eating some yummy pub food.

I'm really excited about my time over there and, though I realize it will be a huge academic challenge, I am blessed to be able to travel abroad for a semester and grow so much (hopefully!) academically, meet new people, and grow spiritually as well.

I'm the kind of person where I would commit to writing every single day (or something of the sort) and then fall off the face of the planet once I actually get there, SO I don't want to make any promises; BUT I will say this: I really do hope to commit to updating on here at least once a week. No promises, but hopefully I'll follow through!

Many prayers would be much appreciated for safety, strength for and dedication to my crazy academic schedule, and that I take advantage of every opportunity God gives me over there.
Here's to a once in a lifetime adventure!
Love you all!
