Hey friends! I'm very sorry for not updating, but as many of you know I am a magnet for accidents! I went the ER last week as a result of a broken nose and a minor concussion (it's a long, semi-embarrassing story, so message me if you want to hear it!). That being said: I'M GOING BACK TO CAMBODIA! I still need to raise $445.00 for the rest of the trip, but my plane ticket will be purchased.
I can't even begin to explain all of the emotions within me- excitement, awe, fear, love...and everything in between. To be honest I kind of gave up hope in the middle of last week: there was no chance that I was going to get back to Cambodia. It had gotten to a point where I needed to raise $785.00 in a matter of two days- Impossible? I thought so. But I was proven wrong! When I was given the final $300.00 on Wednesday night, to get my plane ticket, I was screaming and crying my eyes out. I could not being to fathom what had occurred, I was simply flabbergasted. For something that I was told was going to be impossible, became a reality. My roommate, Jenna, celebrated with me as the dream became reality.
Days following, I had a chance to Skype with my little sister, and best friend Sopheary from Cambodia. I finally broke the news to her :) A week prior to this conversation, Sopheary called me, and I asked for her to pray for me. I didn't give any details, but I just needed help to do something. Well, as you may guess I needed help deciding if Cambodia was a possibility for the summer. Needless to say, having the chance to tell her that I was coming back, was amazing. Tears, smiles, and laughter were all shed. I can't wait to see her, and the others and have the chance to hold them in my arms once again. Thank you for the support! If you would like to donate, I have a PayPal set up...please e-mail me at newargo@seu.edu and I can give you the info. to donate to my trip. Or, if you prefer sending cash or a check, e-mail me and I can give you that info. as well. Thanks :)
