The Waiting Game

I have no reason to be writing a blog right now, other than:

a) I'm massively excited- you know when you get those moments in your day when you feel a childish, overwhelming excitement about something?!- yeah?- Well, I'm feeling that =D

b) Great distraction from the bores of revision!

So, I have my first exam on Thursday. I don't feel particularly prepared, and am in fact a little stressed underneath it all- although I think I'm good at not showing my stress levels =) Keep the happy face on, take it all in my stride....when underneath a little voice is saying, "Gemma, you really need to do some work. Now. Now. Now."

Reading Matthew 6:25-33 has also been very encouraging though!

Anyway, I'm really looking forward to going to Pathfinder Lodge right now, I feel I've got an incredible, fulfilling and fun summer ahead!

For now though, it's sadly back to the books. And that's never any fun. I literally can't wait to bring on the fun times soon! I definitely, definitely love fun more than my degree!  How I totally wish you could do a degree in "Fun!"

The Big News

So, I'm definitely up for keeping a short blog if I'm able to reach a computer every so often when I'm out in America!

For now though, I thought I'd begin with the exciting news that I have actually now been placed on a Camp! And it just looks so incredibly perfect for what I'm after, I can't wait. I've been placed on "Pathfinder Lodge" in the State of New York, 5 miles from a place called "Cooperstown". Yes, at the moment it's just a load of names, but I can't wait to see the faces of these places!

Although it will be a little sad not to be spending the summer in my homeland, the Beauty that is the Isle of Wight, this is such a big and exciting adventure that will be a fantastic opportunity for me to take!

So for now, I hope and pray that all the planning goes well, my Visa, passport, and practical stuff gets sorted, and that I can get some more money together before I go! But yeah, I'm ready for a fantastic summer. Bring it on!
