| My personal goals for your Mongolia Abroad experience: | I would like to learn enough of the language in Mongolia to interact with the people. I would like to soak in as much of the culture as possible. I would like to excel academically, I’m aiming for B+ and above, and I’m interested in learning political science concepts and really being able to see them applied in Mongolian government. During the trip, I would like to consistently love everyone in our group as if they were members of my own family. I would like to push and help everyone in the group express them more freely and completely. I would also like to work out as much as possible, fitness and strength wise to be better prepared for soccer season this coming fall. I would also like to rely solely on Christian Science, when faced with each problem big or small. I would love to practice C.S. in every moment, so that it is what I call on first to help me when I’m ever in need of support, no matter what I’m faced with. My bottom line goal is to expect and experience growth in every aspect/area of my life, to be receptive to lessons and God’s guidance and to be always in the moment and listening! |
