please pray for Ruth. She is a high school friend of mine who got into a really bad car accident. I'm not entirely sure on everything and I'm trying to keep updated. It was a bad car accident though. So just keep her in your prayers.

Hmm. China. What do I think of you thus far? You are okay but I would rather be somewhere else right now. God has been showing me a lot and I am trying to focus on that. One thing I have learned is that there are many other places I would rather be than here. Don't get me wrong, it's beautiful in it's on way and interesting, but it's just not my place. I met a great girl from Taiwan here. Her name is Michelle. She is adorable. Came a few days ago and will be here for 6 months for teacher training. She is one of our assistants. She wants to be an ESL/English teacher.

The food here is worse. Charlotte told me it would be. It is also a tad more salty than Korea, but I think that is just the school's cafeteria food. They bought us coke. So I now have a coke can with Chinese on it. I think I might bring it back with me.

I read this in one of the books I brought:

I'll never be lonely
Even if I'm alone
For I've a precious Savior
Who'll come take me home
But while I'm here
His servant I will be
With one foot on earth
And one in eternity.
And I'll gather His crops
To populate His land
And if I feel weary
I'll cling tighter to His hand
