Madison, WI

I arrived last night at the base. We were all exhausted, yet some how still trucking along. We received a nice welcome and a nice little tour of the base. Then we just hung out. It was so nice to get to know some of the girls and DTS leaders. I think I might have been most nervous about meeting the leaders and I am still nervous about meeting my one-on-one. I have met most of the leaders, but we don't have a one-on-one yet. Or at least we have not been told who we have. Tonight is a welcome dinner and meeting all the other students who have come in during the time we are in town. The base feels like home already and I am super happy about that. I was scared it would not. And that we would not mold into a family, but most of the girls have been real and honest and so I am excited that we do not have to go through a whole breaking down wall routine. I am so excited for classes to start. I feel like such a nerd saying that, but it is true. I am excited to start learning new things and doing new things...like stepping out of my boxes. Some of the girls and I were talking to the leaders and they were saying my DTS was allowed to join the Rescue Ops DTS in morning workouts so more than likely I will be doing that. I need other people to push me at the moment because I am so bad about it now. Ha. For anyone wanting to send me mail or if you want to donate to my outreach (tax-deductable!) the address is: N1707 County Highway N Columbus, WI 53925 If you are writing a check you can either place my name or YWAM Madison on the envelope, but put YWAM on the check. Also place a little side note saying "Maya Lanciault 2012 DTS outreach". This way it will go into my fund and not anyone else's. Thank you so much!
