Ohhhh. My. I'm just gonna jump right in here.

As of two days ago, I have changed my minor to Spanish, and I will be studying abroad in Argentina next semester.  I'm excited and nervous about this at the same time. Super excited about the cultural experience, sooo nervous about the fact that I don't feel like I have a good enough grasp on the Spanish language to be down there. But, I'll learn right? Oh, and with this program, I'll be down there from February to July. SIX FREAKING MONTHS. And that kind of terrifies me to be honest. A lot.

Why am I doing this? WHYYYYY do I do the things that scare me most?

Because in doing that, I allow God to be God and perform the roles that I know only HE can do. While I sit back and be weak and watch the man work through me. I have no idea where this crazy drive came from though, but I'm glad I have it, and that I act on it. Not always willingly at first, yet I know that in the end I will be so much stronger because of it.

This is all happening incredibly fast too. I've always talked about studying abroad, but for whatever reason felt held back. And now, things are just rolling. I've already got my letter of recommendations out. Crazy. CRAZY!

I'm a mix of jumping emotions and I'm wondering how this is going to play out. I need to trust God to be my Father who provides financially, emotionally and tangibly. I'm stoked to be going on this adventure, but right now, I'm a bit nervous. And I know the first few months will be a huge adjustment period and I HATE adjustment periods.

But, I press on...
