I'm Back!

I'm back in the lovely land of vegetables, wheat bread, and non-smokers. I love it. Every time I leave America, I'm really thankful for it when I come home. So here are the highlights of my summer.

- Bootcamp (all around. It's amazing. Just go.)

- Standing at the top of Victoria Peak in Hong Kong

- Seeing Anne Frank's house in the Netherlands

- 9 people were saved, including one on our team

- Cooking entire meals with a rice cooker

- Naming our three rats (Fred, Jezebel, and Ahab)

- Catching/killing Jezebel

- Being told I use chopsticks like a Chinaman

- Watching the team members grow in the Lord and follow him

- Carrie's famous phrase: "MISH IT."

- Drew's morning greeting (MORNIN' EVERYBODY!)

- Lauran's Random Facts/Edward Scissorhands obsession

- Dickering over prices in Ladies' Street (seriously, why don't we do this in America? It's so fun!)

- Finally getting a letter from my mom in Hong Kong

- Witnessing at HK's only mosque, and almost getting punched. Keyword: almost

- Praying in a circle for the last time at Debrief

2010 Hong Kong team, I will never forget you. You made this summer one of the best of my life. I love you all.
