God Has a Plan for Me in Chicago

So, my brother just came in the room and started singing God has a plan for me in Chicago, so that's pretty much where the title of this blog came from. (if you were wondering...and it's not a real song, Trenton just made it up off the bat.)

So, I want that to be true for me too, I'm not doubting it at all, it's gonna be a great experience...I just have to keep telling myself that, and once I get there, it will be, but for now, it's just hard and sad.

But, church was AMAZING tonight, Kenna got me this really cute little cactus (it's fake), but it's seriously amazing. And I got to talk with everyone (in my group) for awhile, and it was just a lot of fun...but then I went to Impact to say goodbye to Julie & JT, but they had already left...and that made me WAY sad. Cause I totally told them that I was going to see them...but my mom came late, and it just didn't work out...I'm sad about that, because it's gonna be four months before I see them again. Haha, but I did get to see Aryana, which was pretty special, cause I didn't think that I was going to see her!

Ohh, and our van broke down (that would be the vehicle that will get us to Illinois)...haha, it's in the shop, so we are hoping to get it by noon tomorrow, otherwise we are going to have to reroute our trip and stop in different places and redo our hotel reservations. And the thing is that we have a full 9 hours of driving tomorrow. So, if you put the 9 hours of driving, a stop for food, and the fact that there are 3 boys in the car, it's gonna take about 10 1/2 hours...so if we leave at noon, we'll get to the hotel late.

But, my room is all packed up, so I can wake up at 7:00 to help pack up the Uhaul, and seal all the boxes in my room up, and then go over to my grandparents for breakfast at 8:00, and then I can sleep until the van is ready for us...or work on school. I really need to work on school, so that's a dilemma. Oh well...

Mkay, I'm pretty sure that that's all for now! I'll probably write more tomorrow about our trip to Tucumkari, New Mexico.

Love you all and always,
Eliana

P.S. Haha, I signed my name in Webdings! That's cool!
