Im officially in Hawaii!!!!!!!
Its been a crazy 24 hours, but Im finally here and all settled in. I landed yesterday around 3:30 and was picked up by one of the girls in the college ministry with the church I will be interning with. Her name is Nikki and she and her younger brother Chris were basically my tour guides yesterday. First we came to my new home for the next 4 months. ITS AMAZING! Its this cute little townhouse up on this hill that overlooks Pearl Harbor and downtown, how cool is that?!?! Then we went to the mall and just looked around and got something to eat before heading to their Friday night youth service. I was soooooooo exhausted... i don't know what I was thinking keeping myself so busy when I could have just slept but I just wanted to see everything. It was totally worth it. The youth service was amazing. The kids had just gotten back from camp and some had gotten back from this world conference in the Philippines and it was really neat seeing everyone extremely excited and on fire! I met a few of the people that I will be working with as well and everyone was just super friendly. I basically have the next couple of days to myself cause the internship doesn't officially start till Tuesday. Soooo, Ill try and update this as much as I can and post pictures as well. I took a few pictures this morning, they aren't that great but it was just basically around the house. Hopefully the next couple of days I can take some around town. For some reason its not letting me upload them here but Im gonna also be putting up pictures on Flickr so you can see them on there.

Thanks for your continued prayer and support. I love you guys so much!
Ok, so what are you saying about your new townhouse? That your old townhouse in beautiful Reseda with barricaded neighbors and police helicopters are chopped liver compared some dumpy old view of Pearl Harbor? Whatever. :)
