"Are you in grade 12?"
"Sorry, Ms. Giem, I thought you were a student."
"You can drive?!?!"

Good, good, my life is good. Just the way I like it; my life is good.
And the 1st through the 31st were the first month . . . and Joni saw that it was good.*
And the Lord spoke unto Joni and said, “This month shall be unto you the continuing of months: it shall be the second month of the first year in Mississippi.”
The Lord is my Shepherd; I shall not want.
He makes me to rise at 6am:
He prompts me to go running at night.
He keeps me sane:
He reminds me to maintain my heavenly connection for my soul’s sake.
Yea though my students take tests, I shall not fear:
For extra study and review are with them, their books and papers guide them.
He prepares a table for me in the cafeteria:
But I can eat in my room if I want; I have a toaster oven.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me while in Mississippi
And I will not live in the dorm forever.
Then said Joni, “O my Lord, what shall my permanent plans be?” And He said, “Go thy way, Joni; for those plans are closed up and sealed till the time of hiring in spring. . . . Blessed is she that waits and comes to the hundred and three days. But go your way till graduation. For you shall teach, and stand at the front until the end of the days.”
Go ye therefore on Spring Break, and preach to all Haitians, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost; playing with the orphans and doing construction and clinics: and lo, I am with you always, even unto the island of Hispaniola.
* (see Gen 1:31; Ex 12:2; Ps 23; Dan 12:8,9,12,13; Mt 28:19,20)
