Just got consistent web access today- landed in America May 17, made it safely, and after a few days stay in NYC with my great friend Matthew am now in Wichita with 2 other dear friends, getting ready for Focus training next week. Hope to have more time for writing tomorrow, been absolutely crazy these past few weeks! Anyway we'll be back in Michigan the Sunday of Memorial Day weekend. Hope to see friends in Ann Arbor Sunday morning! Miss you guys!

Latest news heard on BBC radio: The volcanic ash has come and gone, and looks like it may be returning again. There was an attempted bombing in Times Square, the suspected bomber was caught. There's an election here on Thursday- vote Lib Dems, Conservatives, or Labour. And that's the news for today. :)

My friend Lauren has been visiting on her way back to DC from Zambia- she's been here a few days, and it's been really awesome! I don't often have someone to go around having mini adventures with, and we've enjoyed hanging out and going round random places. I had BNI this morning so I'm not at my most alert- I could go into more detail about what we've been doing, and I realise that, but I'm definitely wiped out. :) Nelly kept waking me up in the middle of the night, and that on top of going to bed too late and waking up early has done me in.

I'm sorting out my US travel plans now- now that the volcano ash is mostly not keeping people from flying. :)
