Another thing is that I will be going on what's called The Daniel Fast starting on the 22nd of this month and lasting for three weeks (the link provided is a list of the foods I can and cannot have during this time). This is the second time I've gone through this, and I managed through it--though my body seemed to compensate by me eating more fruits. The idea behind it isn't just to go through a fast, but to become closer to God in the process, which is an endeavor I hope to be fruitful, considering the previous paragraph.

Update--January 13-19
Last week, Large Group (InterVarsity) started up for the semester--something that, of course, I was looking forward to. For the next couple of weeks, the theme is essentially "Sex from a Christian/Biblical Point-of-View", an awkward subject but something that needs to be addressed. Large Group meetings are on Thursday, and I ended up going to a Leadership (Planning) Meeting the day after, where apparently I'll be an apprentice for Small Group leader--there will be several others that are in a similar situation, including the younger sister of one of the current leaders of my Small Group (who, unsurprisingly, will be a co-leader of that group). Although my previous experience with actual leadership--being the Vice-President of my High School Drama Club--was not successful, I'm feeling more confident about this. It'll be a progressive build-up--slightly more duties assigned to me before I'm officially a Small Group leader. I'd be lying if I said that I wasn't nervous, but I also know that God has big plans for me. Edit: apparently, I won't be a Small Group Co-Leader, and I'm not too sure what Molly's going to be doing (maybe Co-Leader of that group?). However, while I won't have any leadership positions, I'll hopefully have a chance to sharpen up my skills for next time.
