It's a Bunderful Life

I must be upfront and honest, I have a strong aversion to talking on the phone. With that said, you can guess I am terrible at keeping up with communication, even with the most important people in my life. Face-to-face communication is more my thing and as many of you have come to learn, emails and texts seem to be my forte... or my demise depending on your stand point. I attribute my phone-talking phobia to my generation of AIM and digital correspondence, but rather than pointing blame, I would rather just say I am joining the blogosphere. Moving on...

2 weeks ago I finished what *should* be my most difficult year of undergrad, you could literally hear the mush that once was my brain sloshing around in my head. I did really well (phew!) because this year is truly the deal-breaker for pursuing medical school. 

Now I am home in Cleveland for another week before I leave for my mission trip in Haiti. I am going with Randolph World Ministries, Inc (a group founded by a teacher in my college) for two weeks to Cap-Haitian (on the northern coast) to work in a mobile clinic. The experience should be eye-opening, to say the least. The work that this group does there is astounding, I cannot do this organization justice in my own words, so I'll just give you the link and please take a look when you have a chance. (click on the name above!) 

I feel like this post could really lose your attention quickly, so I'll cut myself short for now. (As many of you know, my writing can be rather 'long-winded'...I'll warn you now!) But, there will be more on Haiti to come...

(I'm off to entertain those two little ones I call my sisters. 92 degree day and no pool open in site...its going to be interesting! Hannah turned 5 this week, impossible to believe, right?)
