Wow. So I'm going back.
I'm leaving on Tuesday (June 30th) and getting back on Sunday, Aug. 2nd :) I was really hoping that it would be a longer stay, but so many things have happened lately that I'm just really excited (and thankful) to even be going!
On another note, it's been one year (and 2 days) since I got back from Taiwan.
Lots of memories... LOTS!
I remember saying goodbye to precious children. The last day of teaching at my school was extremely hard!
There were tears.
Letters.
Trying to communicate "I'll miss you" and "Goodbye" in multiple languages.
I remember taking random trips to "my kids" house. Eating things that I didn't even realize COULD be eaten ;)
I remember taking walks at crazy hrs of the night in order to go to 7-11 to get a "snack"
I remember looking at the children and seeing so much love in their eyes. so much desire to find out that there was something more out there...
These are the children whom I'm going back to. These are the children who stole my heart about 2 years ago <3
Now, much as I am going back, I'm not exactly doing the exact same thing. I am not totally sure on the details yet, but I do know that I will be working with children around the middle-school age. They will come for about a week and we'll be teaching them a bunch of various "English-related" topics.
As stated in my previous post, my "website" is:

I'm super stoked! This is totally a new program, so I'm going to play "lab rat" for a month, but I know how awesome Taiwan is. I know that I absolutely ADORE those kids. and I know that I can't wait until I get my feet back on Taiwanese soil. :)
Please pray that I would be given many opportunities to be a witness, that God would give me the words he wants me to say, that I would make the most out of every opporunity, and that I would make many memories/friendships <3
Love y'all! <3 <3
