What a bad blogger this LaPierre is. Past the 4 month mark in my new home of Kota Baru, Bandung Indonesia and in adjustment mode in every aspect. Its hard to think back about the way life was when I first got here, as now my day to day seems so normal. Riding a bicycle every morning to work, speaking indonesian, daily instantanious rain all are daily expereinces. Everyday in my job, I question why anyone would let me partake in the tasks I am responsible. There is no surprise like life after college, and this is magnified working internationally. This photo is from an Indonesian education exhibition BAIS (the school where I work) in Jakarta.
Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years were all a time of missing loved ones and... Beach trips. I live in such a beautiful country right now, beaches are only a few hours away and I have been blessed with some great friendships during the coast visits.
As this school year progresses, staying focused on challenging the status quo and moving forward with certain projects are my professional goals. My currect spiritual goal is Psalm 62:1 "My soul finds rest in God alone." What a blessing to have a rock of peace and rest to rely on. I am currently training for a half marathon, which...is my over all physical goal. Some exciting trips in the future. Love to you all.
