So I have been in Montreat for about two days. It is good so far, but so busy and exhausting. I literally have to write this in ten minutes or I will miss the next thing. So Haha, today began the training. We did a leadership training session from 9-4 with team building activities. Let's just say I had to break out the tums afterwards, haha. OF COURSE we did the team building activities. If you know me at all you know that those kind of things are my least favorite. However, God gave me the grace to get through it! :). I have been going to bed at 10-10:30 every night because we have such early mornings but it's also great to be here without starting class yet. For now, all things are well and I am excited that tomorrow we move on to NEW things. Man, there's gotta be a better way to build relationships that don't consist of throwing a tiny ball to someone (me) who has little depth perception!! Maybe that is my calling in life..to discover it, hahaha. Anyway, my body is definitely adjusting again to everything. I have been eating healthy but it is KILLING my stomach...I ate terrible the whole summer and all the fruits and veggies aren't settling well, unfortunately. It's also a different environment to sleep and walk in. I am used to a bigger bed with someone beside me and now I am in a small room and bed beside a window where cars drive by. All that to say, I am enjoying myself and doing my best to BE myself. They asked a ? today about if leaders are born leaders or can learn it. Someone argued for the born leaders side (which I do agree with) but I also argued that we may have certain "flesh" tendancies or personality tendancies that are non-leader like, BUT the Holy Spirit within us can have strength in all of our weaknesses! So it was good to speak up even if my view was a little different. Well I must go change for dinner. I already miss everyone at home but I know God is up to GOOD STUFF as usual.
