Blessings to new beginnings




LONG BEACH



If you never seen west coast sunsets or waves, you'll go probably blind when you'll get to Heaven to know full beauty of God. I definately fell in love these beaches there and the view at the ocean left me speechless everytime. 



The reason I went to Long Beach was actually [I'm fond of this word so get ready I'll use it often] there was a three day oriantation camp by CIEE\Hope for international youth [organizations I'm here with] with students of all around the world and we spent an amazing time together! A big thanks belongs to Tony and Barb [our local coordinators] and one more special thanks to Tony for inviting Mike to let him speak to us! Let me introduce Mike to you. 



Well I know him pretty much but I know he is an amazing person in Christ! First evenning was preaching about choise. There is nothing where you have no choise. Everybody's got a gift of choise. And it's completely up to us which decisions are we going to do. Next speeching was about two things we can't live without. Love and respect. One can't be without other. Lets think about it. You can give love and be respected. But also you need to give respect to be truly respeted. And also everybody wanna be loved. But one can't be without other. Third and unfortunately last one was about distinction....








"Because there is no bad different, there is no good different. There is just different."







MOVING






Camp was over and I with Jaja were packing to move to Puyallup to new [welcome] hostfamily. And the person who God sends into our lives was more than I was asking and praying for. Her name is Bonnie and she is a beautiful person inside and outside. She and her husband [who is in Hawai now] have really pretty small house in beautiful neighborhood and we are so blessed to be here with Bonnie!











On sunday she invited us to go with her to sunday church service and I haven't seen something like this before! The church is huge and the worships are like Hillsong United concert! Seriously! I really wish you could be there with me guys! And preaching? Incredible! Fantastic! Exciting! Fabulous! Lovely! Ethusiastic! Adorable! Great! Encouraging! Strong! True! It's called Four square Church and it's pretty near from our place actually.

Otherwise we're getting "ready" for a school wich starts on thursday but just mentally you know, haha. AAaand tomorrow we're going to Baseball game in Seattle! Who-hoo but I don't even know who's playing so...





anyway it was good to talk to you and anyone who will get some questions or anything just  mail me or leave a message ;]

What is happening here

Things are going crazy since I came! At the beginning let me apologize for writting in english but the biggest shock when I came was a language and is really hard to switch to the english when you speak czech. Don't laugh, I'm not kidding. Otherwise is it wonderful here in neighborhood and Washington isn't rainy at all. Well not yet. Unfortunatelly things around me are getting little bit worst but even though God protects me well and He's staying with me, my friends here are in unpleasant different situations which makes me sad and confused. 


This is called excitement




Ok, something about living here. Since I came from orientation in New York City where I've got huge excitement I had a six hours long flight. I haven't slept for more then 65 hours. I don't know I stoped counting it when it becames over 65 so you may can imagine how annoing I must be. But most of you now the way how Americans are so they won't let you be unpleasant haha. Oh gosh I'm so bad about blogging!! Anyway jetlag is ok. Americans are... Americans :] and homesick is for now ok too. 


Hanging out with girls [Me, Luisa, Minn, Barb, Jaja]




Now I live with one of the local coordinator house. She is an amazing loving person named Barb and she owns a lovely typical american house with wooden facades and no fence. I'll be there for a while because my host family live too far from my school so we need to find other host family for us as soon as possible. Ouch! Us! I mean me and my host sister! She is from Thailand and her name is Jaja. We befriend quickly and I'm really thankful she's gonna be my sister for one year. I'll definitely be uploading about her more later. Oh!! and she can cook Thai meals! We share this place with two more girls - Luisa and Minn. They both are exchange students and they'll be stay in Barb's house for their school year. Luisa is German and Minn is Vietnamese. 


Sunset in neighborhood


Today we had a party bu the lake on north and these lakes are beautiful and quite cold. We did barbeque, canoeing and all the other stuff what is usually doing here :] That was the first time here I tasted a hamburger [for 30 $] and it was quite burnt. anyway I'm not gonna eat more hamburgers here. It's yuck.
