Funny: I already knew that Fargo winters can get pretty crazy because of the blizzards we had a few months ago, but I didn't know about the summer storms. We were just finishing studies and having some lunch, when we looked outside. The shingles from the roofs were being torn off, roof was flying everywhere, trees were falling down, the street outside our apartment was an actual river probably about a foot or so deep. And golf ball sized hail started falling. It was at this moment that we realized we had parked our car outside instead of the garage. The hail was really brief, so we decided to brave the storm to save the car. We had parked right outside, so it only took about 10 seconds to get to the car. In those 10 seconds we became entirely, soaked! We had to ring out our skirts. It was as if we had just jumped in the shower for a few minutes. It was crazy! Then about an hour later there was blue skies and sunshine. North Dakota weather is weird.

Spiritual: Love is my favorite. Every time I ask myself why long enough the answer is always love. I think it's what everyone is looking for. The one who I've felt the most love from is God. He is the source of love. That's why I'm here is because I really just want to help others feel that love. 

Where I'm at: Fargo is a great place. I'm very grateful to be serving here. I really love the people here! It's crazy how much love you can grow for people in such a short time. I love them so much! I usually stay in areas for a very long time because I get very attached to the people. Home is a place where those you love are, so I guess my home is all over the place. 

Ofa atu!
