Remember how I said that last week was nothing but rain? Yeah, this week has been nothing but SCORCHING HOT HUMID HEAT! I literally start sweating once I exit an air conditioned room. If there's no breeze, it feels like I'm in an oven. There's my venting for the day.
Today on campus went by fairly quickly. I met up with Kerby for lunch to plan out the Bible study that I'll be leading tomorrow for our team. I'm somewhat nervous, but I've been praying that God will relieve my nervousness and calm my heart. After lunch I met up with Jared to go sharing. We got rejected basically every time, so that was pretty discouraging, but we kept going. With about 30 minutes left, we headed towards the cafeteria to just sit down. On our way there, I spotted a guy that I talked to in the previous week at an International Relations meeting. He was actually happy to see me and he joined us in the cafeteria. We only had about 15 minutes to talk to him, but he's a genuinely cool guy to talk with and I really wish that I could have met him earlier in our trip. But I know that God had His reasons, so I won't question it. We asked him if he wanted to go to our last outreach event on Thursday, and he said yes so that was pretty exciting.
On Tuesday nights the girls and guys split up into men's and women's time. I helped lead again today for mens time and it went very well in my opinion. We first had an activity at the river which was super awesome because the water was nice and cold. The only freaky thing was that there was a river snack about 3 feet long that swam up next to us. It eventually swam upstream, but I think I shrieked like a little girl when I saw it (Let's remember not to judge). After the river, we had dinner at this katsu restaurant. I'm very excited because I usually get hungery late at night, but after eating that katsu, I'm pretty sure I won't be hungry until tomorrow afternoon.
Overall, today was super hot but it was super productive. Time is winding down, but if I were to leave for home right now, I would have no regrets. God has taught me so much on this trip, and I can't wait to use the things that I've learned on this trip back at home. Be prepared Anaheim, Shawn version 2.0 is coming home in less than a week!
