so, over thanksgiving break, 6 friends and i went down to new orleans to volunteer for katrina cleanup. it was absolutely incredible. fantastic. amazing, really. i completely loved it. it is such a humbling experience. thankfully to our community, we were able to raise money to go on the trip and totally went down all expenses paid-from the plane ride, to transportation, to our own celerbation dinner-we were set. :) we gutted out houses, got to work in the 9th ward, met usher, and had..3 thanksgiving dinners!! lol. it was an awesome opportunity. i am so blessed to have gone down again with some of my faaavooooritteeee friends in the world. talk about a bonding experience. :)
