Arrival In Maui

So I'm finally here! I flew in yesterday and was blessed to get to meet up with one of my roommates for the flight from seattle to Maui. There were 3 other bible college students on the flight also! Such a small world. We spent the day exploring, and SHOPPING. No, not the fun shopping- shopping for food and things we need at our condo. It sounds like it would be fun, but it just made for a very long day of spending too much money. We walked about 2 miles to the nearest shopping center. Luckily one of the girl's  family is here and her sister came and picked us up! I have 3 other roommates- I share a room with Natali, and then Julie and Brittni are in the other room. I am so blessed, all of the girls are amazing. We have 2 bathrooms, which is a major bonus, and a balcony. We're in a condo across the street from the beach, and walking distance to the Church/Campus. We cooked our first meal together tonight! Brittni and I tag teamed it. I made the salad- she made the spaghetti. I would like to thank Chelsea Drake for my salad making skills by the way. I couldn't have done it without her :) Other than that, not much is going on. We met some of the other students today, but haven't spent much time with anybody yet. Orientation is tomorrow at 10 am  though and i am looking forward to meeting everybody! And especially to waking up at 8 am to the birds SQUAWKING in the plumeria tree right outside my window... I know... it's bittersweet. Thankyou for all of those who have been praying for me, I am so thankful for all of the support and love I've been getting. God is good. He is so good.
