End of the Year reflection

Esther, my sister, sent me a letter at the beginning of the school year and this is what it says:
"Dear Vasily,
Just wanted to send you a note and say good luck in this next school year. I wish you all the best in school and your ministry, may God bless everything that you do. Have a fun year, make new friends, make new memories and don't forget to atend classes and finnish your education.
Love, Esther.
P.S. Enjoy our picture :) "

1. God has blessed my school - Got 4 A's and 1 B last semester and I feel confident in my grades this semester as well.
2. My ministry has been blessed with changes, developments, a new pastor, leadership challenges, etc.
3. I have had a fun year, although I did not realize it until last night. I was watching the slideshow from last night's Slaviklub Meeting and have realized that I've done a lot, been many places, and enjoyed much with my friends and loved ones.
4. I've definately made new friends: Sim, Kayla, Jackie, Taisa, Chris, Max, Sanya, Dima Frai, Jiku, Adriana, Oxana J, May Tag, Ben Carr, Slavik Grinko, and even some professors.
5. Memories have definately been made and have yet to be made.
6. I haven't been bad on attending my classes actually. And I feel this helped me to do good in them, thankfully.
7. I'm on track to finish education next semester. Thank God.

This post is really a way for me to get to thank God and share with ya'll my blessings... something we don't do too often. Usually it's about what I/we need/lack and are struggling in. I see the benefits in counting one's blessings.

Last night Slavik Club had an end-of-the-year meeting to say goodbye to our graduating seniors. I really enjoyed it and I hope everyone else had a good time. The majority of our youth came and even our pastor and his wife came for a little. Slavik Gladysh helped out in handing out the diploma's we made, which I'm pretty proud of if I do say so myself. Thanks, God.

Tomorrow is the graduation commencement ceremony. How fast four years go by...
