one step closer


last night my friends threw me a going away party and i am always grateful for the awesome people i get to share life with.

this last week i have been going through training that has been focused on learning the iraqi culture and a bit of the language. all throughout it has been clear that the current situation in the country is less than ideal (as you may notice from watching the news). but despite the situation i plan to work hard to convey what good is really happening in iraq.

the party though was the perfect way to end the week and i was surprised at the number of people who made it out. one major surprise was that my friend kurt flew in from wisconsin for the weekend to send me off. i am truly lucky to have such good friends.
