General Check Up

Hey guys,
 I have so much to tell you. Last month I went to the US Embassy to get my VISA, and you know that you only know what you have been told. So obviously I have seen too many clique movies. I went in expecting like a small dark room with one of those obnoxious lamps to shine on me, well I walked in and to start, it was perfectly lit, there was only one other person. There was a big wall that split up the room and there was glass panels at the desks and I did my interview there. It wasn't scary , the only issue was I could not for the likes of me remember the name of the school that AIM was held in but even that I eventually got. The guy that interviewed me seemed nice enough although apparently he was a little rude. I think I was too relieved about the whole perfectly lit rather normal experience that I had had. So that was the one day.

Then on the first of this month, I couldn't sleep in the morning because I was too excited (in a kind of annoying way) to change the calendar over so I could see the day I leave every time I got to it, which it's by my door so I see it a lot.

This last we my brother came to visit me from Dunedin, which was very sweet of him. On Thursday, it could have so easily been an awful day if we had gone ahead and let it.On our way to dropping Jordan off we went to the city, we lost the parking ticket, then our car would not start, we had to wait an hour for an AA man to come. We had to go back to the shore to get a car to get him to the airport, that car STUNK like you would not believe, especially in the back where I was sitting, THEN I tried to buy a chocolate milkshake but they kept getting wrong and if you know me at all you know that I hate with a passion bothering the people working but I took it back three times and then just gave up and asked for something else. So, what was positive about this day? During the hour we waited, half of that was spent on I spy and my mother and my brother are too smart for their own good, they could not get arrow at all, I had to indirectly tell my mum before either of them got it. It made me feel good and my mum though I was very clever. Then when the AA man came, he was very nice and helpful and gave my mum some good advice and showed us what he was doing. Then on the way out, the nice man at the help thing on the pay thing let us out for free, instead of making us pay again, so nice. AND the stinky car made us all appreciate our car because even though it wasn't starting it has NEVER EVER smelt even close to as bad as that one did.Also the weather was good so that we could have all the windows down, God was looking after us.

Now, I am in Napier visiting my grandparents, some of you may have met them and I am going to get to meet one of the congregations that is supporting me. I am so excited, just from the way my grandparents talk about these people, I like them already. I had better go now because I need to.
God Bless
Love Jenna
Oh and 24 days to go.
