Think Again!

I HATE "LOVE BUG" SEASON!!!! If you don't know what a 'love bug' is,765 it's a little black fly thing with and orange dot in the middle of it's wings. In Louisiana they come around August, I think. They swarm you when you go outside. They find ways into a house that you never thought possible. They STINK to high heavens! They stick to the front of your car so bad that you can hardly get them off!!!! I HATE "LOVE BUGS." You are probably thinking "Ok Hannah, you are in Africa. They don't have lovebugs." Well, you would be correct, they don't. SO, I thought I was through with the swarming bugs. THINK AGAIN!!! Tonight I was introduced to the weirdest bug ever!!! It marks the end of the Dry season and the beginning of the Rainy season. I HATE THESE BUGS!!! They swarm around your face. They get into your house. They make me scream!!! UGH!!!

I LOVE AFRICA AND THE RAINY SEASON BUT,I HATE THESE BUGS!!!! So, I ask our guard "How long will they stay?" His response "I DON'T KNOW." So, we don't know when they will leave!! UGH!!

Okay, now for a good report. 3 were filled with the HOLY GHOST and 9 were healed today at church!!! PRAISE THE LORD!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pray that I don't go insane with these stupid bugs!! LOL I am sure that I am making it 10 times worse than it is but, come on! LOL

I shoulda stayed in bed today!

Have you ever had one of those days where you knew when you woke up that it would probably be better to stay in bed? Today was one of those days. I was tired and just wanted to sleep. But, as usual I got up at 7 to ready myself for school. I wore one of my African dresses today.

So, here I am sitting in class fighting sleep. My eyes are literally rolling. Yeah, it was bad. All if the sudden I feel something very cool on my back. I reach behind me and my zipper which runs all the way down my back is broken. Now, that wouldn't be so bad if there weren't 20 other students half of whom are men in the class. I am sitting in the very front! We get a 30 min break at 10 am. It was like 30 minutes before 10. So, I sink as low as I can in my chair. Well the girl sitting beside me starts trying to fix it. I guess the teacher whom is male and is oblivious to the happenings thought I was getting really enthusiastic about what he is teaching walks right over to ask me a question about what he was teaching. I wanted to say can't you see I am kinda busy here! Well, the time passes and they get the zipper fixed but, it was really embarrassing!!!!

So yeah, Hannah shoulda stayed in bed today! LOL

Hope you enjoyed my little story.
Love ya,

My Personality Type???

I heard about this website where you go and get your personality tested. It's actually quite fun and easy!!! You take a 40 question quiz then they give you what they think your personality is. So, here's mine:

The Giver

You strive to maintain harmony in relationships, and you usually succeed.
Articulate and enthusiastic, you are good at making personal connections.
Sometimes you idealize relationships too much - and end up being let down.
You find the most energy and comfort in social situations ... where you shine.

In love, you are very protective and supporting.
However, you do need to "feel special" - and it's quite easy for you to get jealous.

At work, you are a natural leader. You can help people discover their greatest potential.
You would make a good writer, human resources director, or psychologist.

How you see yourself: Trusting, idealistic, and expressive

When other people don't get you, they see you as: Bossy, inappropriate, and loud


So, does this sound like me?

Here's the sight if you would like to be tested.

I think mine fits ALMOST perfect.

Hope you enjoy!

Acts 2:38 wins again...

You probably think this is going to be a real spiritual blog, don't you? Well, NO. This story involves a police officer, my dad, our car, an Acts 2:38 track, and a lady named Sister Jaydie. Now think about this combination for a minute. Make your own assumtions as to what I am fixin' to talk about..............


Ok. So, here it goes...

Today we got out of school early. So, we were going to go do our meat shopping. Yes, we meat shop! LOL So, we are on our way. Just going along. And all of a sudden this police officer starts blowing his whistle and telling us to pull over. So, of course that's what we do. He speaks no English. We speak little French. Finally, we realize that he is saying that we ran a red light. Get this. It wasn't even RED!!!! So, after about 20 mins he walks over and proceeds to tell us that he is going to charge us 10,000cfa which is about $20 bucks for running a red light. Now, in America you would dance for them only to charge you that much. But, here that's way too much!!!

So, we get on the phone and call our guard who speaks English/French. He doesn't really help. We are about to take the ticket when they ask us why we are here in Togo. So, we try to tell them we are Missionaries. But, they don't really understand. Sis Jaydie ( the AIMer ) just happens to have an Acts 2:38 track with her. So, we give it to the officer. Then he changes his mind and dosen't even give us the ticket. He says "Ok, thank you. Bye Bye." So, we get out of there as fast as we can!!!

Acts 2:38 wins again. With Jesus and Jaydie you can't go wrong!

Love ya,
Hannah
