Yes, indeed, I am still alive! This semester was crazy (when is it
not, really?), hence I never posted after May. In a little while, though, I’ll
fall off the face of the planet (well, I’ll be on the other side of it, anyway)
for about 18 months.
You see, back in November, I decided that I wanted to serve a
mission for my church, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (check
out www.mormon.org for more info). I filled
out all the paperwork, and in June, I got my call. I am going to serve in the
Baguio Philippines Mission. I will spend about 18 months teaching people the
gospel and serving them. I won’t have internet (except maybe to email my family
once a week), and I won’t be able to call home except on Christmas and Mother’s
Day.
I report to the MTC (Missionary Training Center) on October 10, so
I have a little while before I disappear, but after that, you won’t hear from
me for a year and a half.
I have some plans for when I get back, ways to blog better, but I
don’t want to start them yet, on account that they’ll be on hiatus for so long
anyway. However, I do plan to toss a few posts up before I leave.
And a quick question before I go, which blogging platform is the
best? Obviously, I’ve been using Blogger, but where do you find the most blogs
you want to read? Where do you find the most exciting ones?
