August 7th, 2009.

So this is the first post of my blog. I'll be blogging about life away from home, how things are going in school (once that starts) and whatever else I feel like (aka fĂștbol). So that's it.

I made it from Marylant to Georgia on less than two tanks of gas. That's pretty sweet. Also, A speed limit of 70mph is a good thing, just ask people in the south. I stayed with Pastor Mike Smith Wednesday, and also attended church there. I was able to share who I was, what I was doing, my burden for Spain and a few other things during the service. (The service lasted three hours, no joke.) Anyway, that was yesterday. Today, I left North Carolina at around 8:45, and arrived at my new home at about 5.15. Total time spent driving (from MD to GA= about 11 hours. Total distance= about 720 miles. That makes my average speed about 65mps, not that you care.)

I'm sitting here in the house (is it a house, a basement, an apartment? I dunno what to call it.) and no one else is here. No one. Seriously. I feel really...awkward sitting here alone. I mean, I pay rent and all that, but still. I'm the new kid right now. It feels weird being alone. Oh well. I suppose I should get used to it.

I think I'll go look for a job tomorrow. I'm almost out of money right now. I need to save as much as I can before school starts.

I think I'll keep it short and sweet for the first post.
