One Girl One World

So I leave for Kenya tomorrow... The trip I have waited 2 years for is finally happening. I have 3 things going through my head right now the plan, the goal and the feeling. The Plan So being away for a month is a long time and means that I have to keep track of important things. So a plan had to be made for me being away for my quiet time with God, and workout schedule. Over the month I plan to wake up early and do my devos my goal is to read through Isaiah. What I love about the book of Isaiah is all the imagery. While doing my quiet time I also hope to journal and keep records of all the blessings and little God moments. What is going to be tough is keeping up with my physical training but my dad helped me come up with a good plan to keep on top of it and to stay in great shape. The Goal Kenya is my getaway. The goal of summer sixteen is heart healing. This year has been an insanely hard year for me. Even though it has felt like a rollarcoaster through it I have been able t...

Hi again!!! I'm seriously so in love with Montreal!! Maybe you don't feel the same excitement... But I'm just so in love with the trend and the culture and the buildings! In between another great game of basketball we went and found this adorable little Italian restaurant and sat outside which was so peaceful. We then walked around and my imagination just went crazy on what it would be like to live here and to go on bike rides and to plant a little garden and just be all artsy. In my mind living in this area seems picture perfect and so peaceful. I love moments like this because I feel so inspired and that nothing could bring me down when I get in this mood. I recommend whenever u visit somewhere new get away from the tourist area and find where the locals go, feel the real culture and spend a day in the life. I'll see ya, A.S. <333

Coleman's basketball allows my family and I to adventure to a lot of places and this weekend we have been touring Montreal This is my very first time being to another province which is crazy!! I love the culture in Montreal it is very fashionable and ethnic. Last night we visited McGill University and walked around Old Montreal. I love visiting university cities because it has me start thinking about the future and where I will one day want to go. Also while being in Montreal it is strengthening my desire to learn a second language. French might not be the language I would want to learn I would prefer to learn either Spanish or German. There just seems to be something so cool about knowing a second language. What Uni do you one day want to go to? If you could learn a second language what would it be? What I love about visiting new places is exploring and finding cute little restaurants. Last night we went to dinner at this fine dining restaurant called Scarlet. The restau...

So I want to do an introduction to me and like to start that off I am going to say I love making lists so I am going to blog to you a list about myself. I know this is very cheesy but that's me :) I am a follower of Jesus Christ I have an unhealthy overwhelming love for cheese and bread Cats give me a lot of joy I have a very peppy personality that is sometimes a little too positive in the morning I actually enjoy going for long runs I watched all 11 seasons of greys anatomy in grade 10 and still got a 97 average I am a starbucks girl I love driving around with the windows down listening to country and 80s music I wish I had time to read more good books I keep a journal My family thinks I am crazy I love to sing and dance even though I am awful at it I love working out and playing basketball My full time job is to annoy my younger brother I got very big dreams for the future I am crazy enough to start a blog I love meeting new people and learning what they are pas...

So this is my first blog post and I am very excited!!! So the reason for this blog is because in exactly 9 days I will be leaving for a trip of a lifetime!! For the whole month of July I will be in Kenya completing a grade 12 geography course. This experience is going to be life changing and to remember it all I thought it would be a good idea to blog. I also want my family and friends at home to enjoy the journey with me and to be able to keep in touch. Although after the trip I hope to continue to use this blog as a way to express what is going on in my head because my thoughts feel like Niagara Falls. I want to use this blog as a way to express myself and to inspire others and to just enjoy the journey of one girl facing one world. I hope you enjoy keeping up with my crazy life. I'll see ya, A.S. <333
