I sometimes laugh at myself and my ways. I'm constantly the oddball in any situation. In the BYU/Mormon world, I'm definitely the only one who seems to be taking this particular path in life. I literally cannot think of any role models who have done what I am trying to do. I guess that's what makes this fun! In the international/ NGO community here in Lima, I am the only Mormon that I know of. In the Mormon community here in Peru, I am the only gringo. Everything that I do for fun down here is completely Peruvian. No more singing songs by the bonfire, but salsa dancing is in grand supply! Being the oddball has definitely been my challenge over the past couple of years, but I'm learning now how to completely harness the idea and just rock out to it! I'm living my dream! I've had my mind blown every single day lately and why would I want it any other way?
