First Day of Classes!

Hey Guys,

I wanted to shoot everyone a quick update about how it's going so far over here!

We just had out first day of classes. I'm already loving it here! Everyone's been super chill so far and it's fun getting to know them all!

We had this past weekend off before classes started, so we were able to get used to the Kona area and hit up the beach a few times. I think we've been to the beach about 5 times already haha (It's NOT going to keep up at that rate, I promise).

I'm still trying to wrap my head around the fact that God has called me here. I've been so flippin blessed over these past months leading up to this that it's awesome to see how far I've come even since I applied. God's already done some crazy amazing things in my own life as well as the other people in our school. I can't wait to see what happens from here out.

Part of attending this schooling is that everyone has a work duty on the campus. We pretty much keep the campus running and doing everything that's needed. They do that so the price of the schooling can be kept really low. We received our jobs today and I am luck enough to have morning kitchen crew! That means we have to be out at the kitchen at 5:15 am every weekday morning. It's gonna be crazy early, but I have a lot of friends in it so it's going to be awesome to be able to grow closer to them even though it's ridiculously early. I'm also glad that having that job means that I get the rest of the day off (after classes of course) so once my classes are over it's just over.

The amount of worship time we have here is awesome. Each class starts with a session, then we dig into what we're learning and then end it with more. It's not like worship back home either: It's not scripted. No set song list and they don't stick to it, it's free reign. They'll start singing a song and then the songs will end up being like 15 minutes long because everyone is just praying and worshiping authentically.

 One thing I love about hawaii: That you can hitch hike anywhere and everywhere. We just got back from walmart, which we hitchhiked to. So awesome haha.

One final note: Definitely rockin the hipster glasses. Diggin it. Like a boss.
