Suur Piim, Kismet, and Grass-eating: Wednesday: July 14th
http://rianeestonia.blogspot.com/2004/08/wednesday-july-14th.html
Suur Piim, Kismet, and Grass-eating. Estonia Missions Trip: July 9-18th, 2004. Saturday, August 14, 2004. We woke up Wednesday, as we had been making a habit of every morning. After breakfast, we packed our bags for the camp to which we would be heading. We didn't know which Estonians would be joining us, and we waited, half-exitedly and half-nervously. Yeah, that'll get you far in life. After lunch, we set out to the first station of the endless game- the ropes course. I'm a wuss and didn't do it...

Suur Piim, Kismet, and Grass-eating: Sunday: July 18th

Suur Piim, Kismet, and Grass-eating. Estonia Missions Trip: July 9-18th, 2004. Saturday, August 14, 2004. In the midst of my early morning sleep, I remember listening, in the back of my mind, to a dull knocking sound. It didn't phase me, but after five minutes I started to wonder what it was. It took another two minutes to realize that it was knocking. It took another three minutes to realize that it was REAL knocking. And then five more minutes to realize that it was on my door. We then prepared for our...

Suur Piim, Kismet, and Grass-eating: Overview: The Whole Week
http://rianeestonia.blogspot.com/2004/08/overview-whole-week.html
Suur Piim, Kismet, and Grass-eating. Estonia Missions Trip: July 9-18th, 2004. Saturday, August 14, 2004. Overview: The Whole Week. It isn't every day that you get shipped off to Estonia. It isn't every person who has the chance to be blessed with the opportunity to be shipped off to Estonia. At one lunch conversation, my friend Kelly was telling us how she was going to New York in June. I replied with, "Yeah, well, I'm going to Estonia in July.". How do you prepare for a week like that? There will never...

Suur Piim, Kismet, and Grass-eating: Friday: July 16th
http://rianeestonia.blogspot.com/2004/08/friday-july-16th.html
Suur Piim, Kismet, and Grass-eating. Estonia Missions Trip: July 9-18th, 2004. Saturday, August 14, 2004. At 1:00 in the morning, Lissa and I were in the downstairs bathroom. She was brushing her teeth, and I recall very clearly that I was sitting atop the metal garbage can. Typically 1AM activities, of course. At least, we thought. In my head, I was certain that it wasn't actually time to wake up. But the other half of me thought that maybe - just maybe - I was wrong. PS It was Ashley's birthday.].

Suur Piim, Kismet, and Grass-eating: Thursday: July 15th
http://rianeestonia.blogspot.com/2004/08/thursday-july-15th.html
Suur Piim, Kismet, and Grass-eating. Estonia Missions Trip: July 9-18th, 2004. Saturday, August 14, 2004. Thursday was one of the most exhausting days of the trip, but it was, without a doubt, one of my favorite. I'll steal Dan's words here and describe it as a Survivor/Road Rules type game. Every group started out rather intensely, but after an hour or so of it, many died down. However, we had Maria and Kaia on our team. Maria and Kaia are very competitive. Like I said, it was intense. However, everythi...

Suur Piim, Kismet, and Grass-eating. Estonia Missions Trip: July 9-18th, 2004. Friday, July 30, 2004. That morning, after an always exasperating, but loved, rendition of "Rise and Shine," we stumbled downstairs, forced down Suur Piim and cornflakes, and crashed into the chairs and couches in the meeting room. It never came. With the last few blindfolded, our line cruelly bent around them and crawled beneath them to avoid their contact and further their humiliation. It was a darn good time. Yeah, I didn't...

Suur Piim, Kismet, and Grass-eating: Saturday: July 10th

Suur Piim, Kismet, and Grass-eating. Estonia Missions Trip: July 9-18th, 2004. Tuesday, July 27, 2004. Around 1:45, after Tori and I discovered that we had not been alone in our lack of sleep, we both had *just* managed to start a slow drift off into sleep when I heard, and this is an exact quote, "Mhwshjf.". Now that I think about it, I really don't remember Saturday very much, but we're going to keep on trying. At least . I think it's in Finland. Is it in Finland? We're going to say it's in Finland.
