LARIAM®....

...also known as Mefloquine is the type of anti malaria pills that I need to take for my upcoming trip to India. So I was reading through the patient information sheet and it is like those commercials you see on tv for drugs that say side effects may include and they go on and on. Here are some of the possible side effects
-Severe anxiety
-Feelings that people are against them
-Hallucinations(ex. seeing or hearing things that aren't there)
-Depression
-Unusual Behavior
-Feeling Disoriented
-"Some patients taking 'Lariam' think about killing themselves, and there have been rare reports of suicides. It is not known whether 'Lariam' was responsible for these suicides."

Yeah kind of crazy I would hope that if they were responsible for the suicides then they would stop selling the pills.

People have also said that I will most likely experience crazy dreams keep checking the blog because if I have a crazy one I will share it with you. Maybe.

Anyways I should go hopefully any side effects I get will be minimal.

IN ONE WEEK I AM GOING TO.................................................

India.... I know it is crazy to think that in a week I will be on a plane on my way to India. I am excited. I know it is going to be an amazing time. Please pray for me and the team.

Missing people already

So this will be short my parents have friends over so I should go and be social. I just wanted everyone to know I am safe at home. I hope you are all doing well. I know it has only been just over 48hrs since I left school but I already miss my friends. It's hard when you see them all the time to then be at home and not be able to see them. Miss you guys and love you I will post more later.

My life

So I know my posting has been lacking lately and I am sorry for that.

So my room is clean and I really love having it that clean and am enjoying being in it a lot more often. Thanks to my friends Sarah W and Natashia who got it started for me. I then spent two hours finishing cleaning it. I even cleaned my closet. (Mum you would be proud {no pun intended} )

The trip plans are all coming together. I am excited to go. More info about Prayer Requests can be found on my prayer blog.

School is great and I am so thankful for the friends that I have made. This morning was my friend Erin's birthday so I made her breakfast in bed. I made her a Belgium waffle.(Tasha I have expanded and can make good egg sandwiches and now also waffles.)

Class this week is Missions prep which is nice to tie up the details and also give us a light homework week.

I am going to Creston hopefully on the 16th for Christmas and we might go to Summerland to my aunt's for the 23rd to the 26th. I am really hoping this happens otherwise it will be just me and my parents in Creston which will be a little odd for me.

I gotta go my neck is really sore and I need to do some reading before basketball and I also have night class tonight.

Take Care

Almost Clean

So my room is almost cleaned. I was gone today babysitting and while I was gone a girl or somegirls basically cleaned my room. So right now I am in the process of putting away things that they didn't know where they went. Thank you to the girls or girl who cleaned my room.

The Party

Hey Everyone so I thought I would tell you about what I did last night. Yesterday was the Guys party for the Girls. Every year at CLBI the guys throw a party for the girls and vice versa. The day started with Breakfast in the Co-Ed at 11:00am. We had some yummy pancakes and sat there while the boys asked what we wanted and made our pancakes accordingly. After that we had some free time until we had to be in the Co-Ed again at One. When we got there we were given a clue and sent out on a scavenger hunt trying to find out who kidnapped the don. It was like a big game of clue. We had to go to five different places and it took two hours to complete. When we were finally finished we went back to the school and had three hours to get ready. We got ready and went to the Co-Ed. We were then escorted in groups of four to the caf. There we were announced and went in the Caf one by one. The boys had done an AMAZING job decorating. Sorry to the boys I went to CLBI with my first year but these boys did a way better job decorating it didn't even look like the cafeteria. They had paper up around part of it that was sponge painted to look like bricks. Then the rest was covered in black. They had also lit one part up to look like a city sky line. After everyone was seated we were served an awesome dinner. Then had a time of worship. We ended the night with a dance. The music was swing/jazzy type music. It was so much fun and it was sad when the evening came to an end. It seem like it flew by. Thanks to the boys of CLBI for throwing a great party and making the girls feel special.

Question

What do you think about midwives?

My Nose

So I might of broke my nose the doctor doesn't really know. I was playing basketball on friday and I screened Greg and he turned and smacked his head into me nose. There was a loud crunching/cracking noise. Surprisingly I did not bleed but I did cry for about three minutes and Shannon took me to the hospital. The Doctor said he didn't want to do anything he wanted to wait for the swelling to go down before he does anything. Also Shannon had to wake me up in the middle of the night in case I had a head injury. So I am planning on e-mailing my mum some pics so she can make a decision about my nose. Anyways I should go. Take Care

Please Pray

So in about two hours time I will leave on a 24 hour solo trip. As part of the class this week was an optional 24 trip. We were able to choose whether we wanted to be inside or outside. We also then got to decide whether or not we wanted to water fast, daniel fast(fruits and veggies only) or meals. So I choose outside with a daniel fast. I know how I am and I would find a church inside way to distracting. So if you could pray for my time that would be great. I know this is going to be a very very stretching experience for me. Pray that God would direct me and guide me and that he would speak to me during this time.

Happy Thanksgiving

So life has been busy. Adjusting to classes and everything else that we do at school. Because it is thanksgiving the dorms were locked thursday afternoon and we can't get back into them until tonight. So I am in Tofield at my friend Erin's house. It has been a good weekend. Erin was gone from friday morning to sunday morning so that left me with lots of time to get to know her parents and her two younger sisters. Anyways I should go I will post more later. Take Care
