Ohana

Aloha,
Everyday has been quite busy, all day is full, we are spending allot allot of time with the class, like 60 of us, and we are all becoming very close. It's a crazy good enviroment to share everything and anything. Even with the 7 girls in my room, i'm not sure how i'll live alone after this ;)

I'm learning allot about the definition of love, and family, and comfort. Like, unconditional love from God, family made from friends i've known for a week, and the comfort in being totally uncomfortable. I can't explain how beautiful it is here, today is very sunny and cool in the shade which makes for a perfect day. I LOVE the constant view of the ocean and even hearing the waves from the farm. Sunsets are amazing i guess thats obvious. Surprisingly though, i'm starting to really really enjoy farming, like weeding and harvesting veggies, and feeding the pigs..(i know everyone who knows me is not beliving this, but im serious!) I'm even getting used to the bugs, OH and we get 25 baby chickens at the end of the month. :)

We do lots of walking and went to Walmart a bunch of times to buy snacks, we have a completely  full cupboard of food, its great, the meals here aren't to bad though, yesterday we had supper with our work duty leaders and they made bbq pork, and lettuce wraps, and chicken curry, and watermelon. YUM.

The weekend is nice because we get some free time, i think we might go cliff jumping tommorow, but i'm not sure yet.! i want to though

Today we are volunteering for the IronMan triathlon as security. It should be fun, we went down to the pier this morning at like 4:30 to get a good spot to watch the race. They started with the professionals and then the others, there were 1800 swimmers in the water at one time, it pretty much looked like flying fish jumping out of the water.

pictures are coming!! i promise! tommorow at the latest.
