Oh yeah.

I'm only going to the PERU PIURA MISSION!!!!

On November 3rd, I will report to Provo MTC for 3 weeks, and then I'll go down to the Peruvian MTC for the remainder of my stay in the Missionary Training Center.

I'll write more about the whole thing later.  It's been a rather emotionally exhausting day.  But I know that this is where I'm supposed to go.  And I absolutely cannot wait!

Um...

MY MISSION CALL IS HERE!!!!!!!

Things are so close!

This whole experience of waiting for a mission call/getting ready to go through the temple has been a roller coaster.  Some days I feel like everything's gonna work out the way I want it to, but other times I get scared.  It really is quite the growing opportunity.  It's been interesting to see though, that as I end this period of waiting for my mission call, how things have slowly fallen into place.  I kind of wish I could just show you how my life has gone up and down since I decided to serve a mission, but unfortunately, that technology has yet to be invented.  It has been an awesome experience though, and I am excited for the adventure to continue.

P.S.-hopefully the next post will reveal where I'm going!!!

Waiting...and waiting...and wishing....and waiting...

This morning, I woke up thinking it was Sunday.  Yes! I thought.  I have my appointment with my stake president today and then my papers will be turned in!!! I was very happy...until I remembered it was only Saturday...

I feel as if I will have a much better idea of what I need to plan for and when I need to plan for it once I get my call.  Until then, it's kind of been an "Oh, I think I might be around for that, but I'm not sure," or a "Well, I might need that for my mission...but I don't know yet."  

I hope to have my call before the end of the month.  I'm kind of thinking wishfully and hoping I will have it in 2 weeks.  Well, here's to waiting, and waiting, and wishing, and waiting some more...
