Highlights
- Debriefing with the Wolfs. I am blessed to serve with them.
- I had coffee with Dr. Thom this afternoon. We had an amazing conversation. I was honored that he chose to share his time with me.
- Procrastinating on everything: homework, packing, cleaning
- Our last Indian meal
- The impending auto-rickshaw toy race TONIGHT! I've greased my wheels and I'm ready to defeat my teammates.
It's time for our midnight movie (we have to get a taxi at 3:00am because our flight is at 7:55am). This is it from my side of the world. Thank you for your tireless support. My gratitude has only increased throughout these past few weeks. I wish I could fully convey what you have given to me. I love you and I will see you soon enough. Namaste.

Amy S. Boyd: I prayed for you just now, and I am guessing you are probably on a plane somewhere between India and the USofA. I cannot WAIT to see you and I'll be looking forward to our coffee dates commencing in a few week's time. Love you, Roomie!
