It's been a while?

yesterday, i went to school to organize classes for my schedule. School starts on monday. I haven't recieved my exact schedule yet but i'm guessing it has to be sooon............
I went to IKEA the other day. It was quiet a journey to get there. FIRST we had a lot of time to kill before the bus came. so we wandered around the center and ate many pizzas and a huge fried ball stuffed with rice, cheese, and ham. yes. yes. yes. i forgot what it was called. anyway we got lost some how and then found our way back to the center and headed on towards the IKEA bus stop. we JUST missed it. so we waited another hour. then finally, it came and all my wildest dreams were about to come true...not really, i just had never been to IKEA and was curious as to what the big deal was. WELL! it's pretty magical, i dont think i'll be going back anytime soon. I got the most amazing moka (italian coffee maker) and a cork screw. beautiful. Go to IKEA: check.
following that lovely extravaganza ...I went to the bible study with Giuseppe and this time there were more people. nice. people. we read and discussed Acts 27 but i caught bits of it. oh dear. but anyway afterward i met this girl that giuseppe was telling me to get to know, she is from the east coast of the US. and what she told me was everything i ever dreamed about. hahaha. their ministry is basically hanging out with people and getting to know them. no strings attached. this gets more exciting all the time.
