Hello from South Africa!!! I am here and I can’t believe it! I’m sorry that I have not updated since I’ve been here but my schedule has been extremely full. For the past 4 days I have actually been out in the African wilderness for team building. When I think of team building, I think of something like cheerleading camp. Everyone gets together and does fun little activities to become friends. This team building was hardcore. This was like, out in the wilderness, no tents, only food you cook over an open fire, no toilets, only bathed once in a river…oh, did I mention it’s FREEZING in Africa at night. I sound like I was absolutely miserable and I’m not gonna lie, I was. I also had a great time though. I climbed a mountain and repelled down a cliff on the other side, then climbed back up the steep side of the mountain to go back down on the other side, I saw baboons, over come a huge fear by sitting on a small raft, being cold and wet for about 3 hours. Amanda, I saw a South African sunrise and sunset every single day since I’ve been here. They send us on this camp so we can really become close. It definitely worked. I now have some very close friends here who I can’t wait to spend the year with!
Yesterday, we finally got back to the C-Kruiz base and still had to wash cars and tarps and FINALLY got a shower. It was good. Since then we’ve been doing castings and things to get ready for our shows.
I am learning so much and growing so much. Thank you all so much for your prayers and support!!!!!!
