i got it
I have ze ticket.
i think everyone actually thinks i know what i am doing in life. sometimes this makes me laugh. other times it makes me feel very alone.
normally…i say what i think sounds like a good idea.
i say it again and again. i listen to myself speak. i listen to how it sounds. i look to see how the person responds. and then i let the idea sit. by this time, most people are like “oh, that is what you are doing then.”
whereas in my head, it is all still rather scattered.
and then somewhere down the line, some random day comes up and the decision pops itself in my face and i click “buy ticket”
and Lord willing, i will be in Brasil July 6-December 16.
and i am very happy. everyone else is just like “Well, you already told us you were going to do this.” but to me…the decision wasn’t really final…it commitment wasn’t really made…until i got the message from Orbitz that showed my recipt.
by the way–It was an amazing price. thanks God.

ok
awesome!! I’m jealous and happy of/for you at the same time. tickets are cheap right now too!
@spokenfor - thanks! yeah…it was like $300 less than what i expected–and have lately been finding for plane tickets. you can come visit anytime…and teach my kids English…no–better yet…some awesome songs! oh yes, do come sometime!:)
@rwinzeler - I could seriously contemplate taking you up on that offer. I love teaching kids songs and having them teach me spanish songs.
@spokenfor - dang…super late reply…but…
ANYTIME. we speak Portuguese in Brasil, but other than that, it is exactly what would happen. there is official summer trips, but if you can get a visa and a ticket…from two weeks to 3 months…we got a place for you to stay, and WOULD LOVE THE HELP! i am gonna be there from July-December, so can personally invite you during those times. otherwise…check out the ministry website at http://www.wrbrazil.blogspot.com
