Week of Spiritual warfare



        Hey guys, I am sorry I haven’t written anything in my blog recently. You guys have missed some of the awesome things that have happened here.
Week before this week, we had a very neccessary topic. A guy from Germany who lives here came to talk about spiritual Warfare!
First of all half of our school, Rescue Ops, left us to go and do their week of camp in Arkansas - so the beginning of our week was so different, like waking up without being woken up by some of the girls for work-out or not having to run in order to get your breakfest before it’s gone, or class being half empty, just little things that were missing but they were noticeable.
So let‘s get to the topic and what I learned this week.
I don’t know how about you but I didn’t know much about spiritual warfare before I came here. I don’t really remember that we had talked about this in my church or online churches. If they did then I just missed it and I feel bad because it is a very powerful topic and every church should look into it more.

During this week I learned that I should be careful when accusing God in everything or saying that he is behind everything that happens, that it is His will for this to come into my life. Not everything that happens is from evil, but they don’t go by Bible, we need to through them out. So like if there is a lie in your head and it is something that God hasn’t promised, or Bible says differently about it, you should consider taking that as a lie in your life and getting rid of it.
There are 4 areas in us, we should protect:
·      Mind
If you have thought of lies, it’s gonna effect your everyday life
Thoughts of fear are really strong – they can keep you from doing what you need to do.
*      Thoughts of condimnation – you are not pleasing to God; you are not
being spiritual enough? Wrong. We want to get rid of it, Go to God with it.
You think about others all the time, but what is it for you?
*      Interiority – under-dog; doupt of everything you ought to be. You always
compare yourself to others. You won’t step up for what you are meant to do.
What are some areas you feel insecure about? What are some areas in your life where enemy wants to have power over you?
Ask the lord, pray&don’t be afraid to step up!!
2 Corinthians 10: 3-5
For though we live as human beings, we do not wage war according to human standards, for the weapons of our warfare are not human weapons, bt are made powerful by God for tearing down strongholds. We tear down arguments and every arrogant obstacle that is raised up against the knowledge of God, and we take every thought captive to make it obey Christ.

·      Heart/emotions
     Proverbs 4:23
Above else guard your heart, for i tis the wellspring of life.
     Ephesians 4:26-27
Be angry and do not sin; do not let the sun go down on the cause of your anger. Do not give the devil an opportunity.
   2Corinthians 2:10-11
if you forgive anyone for anything, I also forgive him – for indeed what I have forgiven (if I have forgiven anything) I did so for you in the presence of Christ, so that we may not be exploited by Satan (for we are not ignorant of his schemes).

·      Mouth
Be careful of what you say. Encourage one another when you truly see it is needed. Don’t just say whatever but think before you say anything. A lot of times we just want to speak out encouragement not because we want to encourage that person but because we want to speak out words.
Speak out the truth so it would be fruitful.

Psalm 141:3
Set a guard over my mouth, O Lord; keep watch over the door of my lips.

·      Relationships
Forgiveness

This week I learned that spiritual warfare is not a magic thing. We wrestle not with flesh and blood. People are not the enemy. The power behind all the people who do wrong things is the enemy, the spirit behind them. So be aware of the enemy and not impressed with him.
How did Jesus deal with people in sin?
He never converted the ones stuck in sin, he showed kindness, love and mercy.
We cannot win battles by arguing with people, but in our innersession we can pray for them.

Ephesians 6:11
Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes.

So learn to recognize the strategies of the enemy, refusing to co-operate with them, agressivly cutting them off in the name of Jesus.

Ask yourself „ What would I do to me if I was the enemy? “
Know the nature of the enemy
Look at statistics&conditions (areas where a lot of something happens)
Ask the Lord for stratégy against the evil
Live by Spirit –
Galatians 5:16
So I say, live by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the sinful nature

1Corinthians 2:10-13
God has revealed these to us by the Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God. For who among men knows the things of  a man except the men’s spirit within him? So too, no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God. Now we have not received the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, so that we may know the things that are freely given to us by God. And we speak about these things, not with words taught us by human wisdom, but with those taught by the Spirit, explaining spiritual things to spiritual people.

How do you live by the Spirit?
Remove the hindrances
1Thessalonians 5:19
Do not extinguish the Spirit

Stronghold
Not just know and talk about it
God shows this to us so we could avoid it’s influence
God shows us what the strongholds are in a place so we could pray more specifically
Live the opposite (give up something that to you is normal, but the community has problems with)

Without God, man cannot do it, but without man, God will not do it.

Have Authority
It is an actual legal reality.
It is not a feeling, or how long I have been a christian, or my personality.

My authority is based on what Jesus did to Satan
Colossians 2:15
And having disarmed the powers and authorities, he made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them by the cross.

1John 3:8
He who does what is sinful is of the devil, because the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the devil’s work

God gives you power to continue.
1John 4:4
You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world.

I hope that this will help you to realize the reality of Spiritual Warfare and the fact that we are able to overcome the enemy in the name of Jesus and what he did for us on the cross!

One of the serious ones...

Hello everybody!

I can't believe it's already been 4 weeks here in YWAM Madison. So much has happened this week.
I would describe this week as one of the most serious weeks we've had so far. Serious because of the topics we have had teachings on and serious because of so many things happening.
I will start with our topics, we talked about this week!

First speaker for this week was Warren Keapprom and he spoke about our foundation. How we can't build our foundation based on others feelings, experiences. God doesn't have grandchildren, he has children. And here in DTS we have the opportunity to start over.
Kingdom of God is built by our loving God, on love and trust. We touched some bible verses like Matthew 7:24 where it speaks about building our house on rock.
Romans 12:2 "Do not be conformed to this present world, but be transformed by renewing of your mind, so that you may test and approve what is the will of God - what is good and well/pleasing and perfect."
What I really liked from all that Warren was talking was the fact that a lot of times people want to go to heaven, but don't want to know God. Our goal should be knowing the Father, and heaven should be the place He happens to be.
So if there would be no Heaven, would you still live for Jesus?
Because what is the point of going to heaven when He is not there.
So the question is:
Are you living for Heaven of God?

2 Corinthians 5:15 says: "And he died for all so that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for him who died for ghem and was raised."

Our second speaker was Dawn Borschers and she spoke about Fear of the Lord.
I really liked the topic she was talking on!
She spoke about healing because of all the things happening with some of the people. More about that later..
So in situations like that (sickness, death...) we should ask God what do you want to do in this situation? Who are you in the midst of it?
In this life we are going to be dissapointed, but are you gonna go through these times with God or without Him?

Some awesome bible verses about Fear of the Lord:
Psalm 33:8 "Let all the earth fear the Lord; let all the people of the world revere him." 
Revelation 15:4 "Who will not fear you, O Lord, and bring glory to your name? For you alone are holy. All nations will come and worship before you, for your righteous acts have been revealed."
Proverbs 23:17 "Do not let your heart envy sinners, but always be zealous for the fear of the Lord."

A lot of times we want to bring God down to our standards, but we have to rise up to His standards and share God's value system!
Something God once told Dawn was : "Everyone else has opinions, but I have the truth"
So what matters, is what God is saying.
Isaiah 40 is also one of the coolest chapters we read this week.

Something what Dawn talked about the Fear of the Lord was that we need the Holy Spirit to break the bondage with our sin because we can't be in the presence of the Lord when sinning.. we feel unconfortable, when having junk in our heart.

So Psalm 86:11 says: "Teach me your ways, O Lord, and I will walk in your truth; give me an undivided heart, that I may fear your name."
Some ways to move thorwards fear of the Lord:
1.Our choice (recuires both: me - God)
2.Get honest (you are so busy pretending who you are, so you can't really take the next step forward)
3.Ask for God ("but taste and feel that the Lord is good.." Psalm 34)
4.Diligence (pursuing Him. Don't be a "spiritual couch potato."    "I will give them singleness of heart and action, so that they will always fear me for their own good..I will assuredly plant them in this land with all my heart and soul." Jeremiah 32: 38-41)
5.Dealing with sin (confession-repentance-renounce-restitution. Conviction from God, guilt a gift from God; Condemnation from enemy as well as shame, a lot of times. Because when you feel guilty all the time, about everything, than something is wrong. When you deal with sin, your guilt should be taken away. Guilt a lot of times says: I made a mistake but Shame says: I am a mistake. God in the other hand says: I'll take it as far as east is from the west.

So we all can't deserve His Grace, but we are worthy of it!


I wanted to share with you why this week has also been sad and serious for us, and why I am sharing this is so that you may pray for our team, and for their families.
This week there has been a lot of sad news for some of our team members. I won't say any names for the respect for their families and for their privacy, but some of our team members lost one of their close ones and it all happened this week. So you can imagine that it has been hard on them and a lot of processing has been going on throughout the week.
I ask you to pray for our team, for God's peace and protection against enemies attacks!

Thank you for being here for me and supporting me!

Also some good news.. whoever hasn't heard yet:
My outreach will be in India from January to February!
I will send out newsletters about my outreach and how you may be involved in it so if you would like to get one newsletter, please let me know!

Love you guys,
Liis

Weeks go by!


Hello my dear friends,

I haven't written anything in two weeks already so I am sorry for that! It has been quite busy for us and we haven't had a lot of internet time as well!

But I want to tell you of everything that has been going on here :)
So the second week we focused on Father heart of God and let me tell you something-it was an incredible time. I think the first day I could not hold my tears back, my face was wet from all the tears!
it was emotional for a lot of people and very refreshing and renewing!
For me at least. I was reminded of so many things about my Father, the God almighty! We talked about how we often see our God according to how we see our earthly dads, so depending on our relationship with our own dad, we see God the same way, uncomplete. 
The speaker reminded me that I need to know who I am in God, as his daughter in order to be helpful to others around the world!
I really enjoyed the time we had with the speaker, because he prayed for many of us and had revelations for some students. God spoke to us that week through our speaker!

We also started talking about dangerous territories - bible and what's in bible and how we know it's the truth and how we can use bible to speak to people with different beliefs! It was very awesome and I am so excited to have many more classes on those topics, cause the first one was a short one!
During that week we had to start praying for our outreach countries. We were shown precentations on different locations and had to take time in prayer to find out where we were called!
Our options were:
Thailand-Myanmar,
India,
Mexico,
Uganda.

The third week we didn't have many lectures, on Monday we had to write down the outreach country we prayed for and felt led to. Mine was ....!
I was so sure that .... will be the country where I am called but the more I prayed and talked to people about different countries, asking questions, my heart was set on ....! I was so moved by the video I saw the first week, of the street kids, aids kids, girls in brothels and how we are able to connect with them, serve them and love on them!
I am so excited to see how God will be using me there.. How I will learn from that culture and those people, and share God’s love with His daughters and sons.
 We left for survival camp on Wednesday - we had to get ready, before that take a test on how well we know South America.
But let me tell you what happened during out survival camp:
First of all,
We had a packing list, of things we could take, it was limited..
like 3pairs of socks, two pairs of pants etc.
We weren't allowed to take any toothpaste or any deodorant, no cosmetics and stuff like that.
We had four tribes and each tribe had to sit together in the bus.
When we got to the place we were dropped off in the middle of nowhere and we had to wait with our team for next instructions from a staff member! 
That night we had to go through customs with our "passports" . They also searched us, if we had items we were not allowed to take with us! Some of us had, and some didn’t. They tried real hard to be serious and harsh on us. Each of our team member was given a scoop of rice and beans and we were sent off to our campsite, each team with their own camp site! And the first night after putting our stuff down we had to play capture the flag. It was exciting and fun. Excitement caused by the darkness and the forest around us. Fun with different teams trying to take our flag!
The next day was a long day for us! We woke up on the sound of our „government signal“ and had to hurry to meet others. We missed our breakfast because of our sleep. The entire day was long and fun and freezing cold. We had team building games and we were able to earn prizes by winning the games. Our team got a second place in one game and we earned 5h of sleep for the next night. We got the last place in a canoe game and earned 6 slices of cheese. Also a second place for this another game and earned half a roll of toiled paper! FUn, FUN!!
We cooked some lunch over a fire, our team member bulit – we had rice and beans.. was that a good luch or what!
We saw a chicken-killing, it was terrible and made me not want any chicken for a while and were treated terrible, like prisoners, while getting our dinner!
Sadly our camp was over sooner then we hoped for- due to a bad astma attack, one girl had!
That night we prayed and worshiped God, praying that everything would be ok and no matter what, God will receive all the glory!
We didn’t know that one of the staff members got a panic attack as well. But God was great and took care both of them. That night we all slept in a warehouse and ended our survival camp earlier!
We survived, and everybody was ok!
Two of the girls who had attacks were not sent to a hospital but put on a bed rest for the next day. They joined us back at the base the next evening!
What a crazy week we had!
On Saturday we spent time in town, doing laundry and watching a movie with bunch of girls and a guy from our base. I think he got enough of girl time for the rest of the school program.
God took care of us this week,
And He will never stop loving us!

Love you,
Liis

New Beginnings!





 Hello everybody,

I am so sorry I haven’t been able to get online since here in Madison, Wisconsin!
Our first week of DTS is over and it has already been an amazing week. All the kids here are so friendly and it hasn’t been very hard to meet people and spend time with them!
I want to share a little bit of what we have learned during this week:
Our week was about hearing God’s voice, and during the days we were sent outside to spend a lot of time with God.. it was challenging because this week I have had a hard time focusing, and getting plugged in with God. I don’t know why it is like this but it made me sad a lot of times. I kinda felt empty, when hearing my classmates sharing how God spoke to them through the wind, or sitting on the cornfield, or reading bible and I had nothing to share.. Nothing during the quiet time..
But it changed when God showed me a scripture in bible during our last quiet time in between classes..
Isaiah 29:13 says:
„ The Lord says: These people come near to me with their mouth and honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me. Their worship of me is based on merely human rules they have been thought.“
This made me realise that maybe my heart hasn’t plugged in, and it made sense cause I didn’t really prepare my heart while in TX, so it made sense..

But when I look back on the lesson time, I think of the book we had to read this week, it is called „ Is that really you, GOD?“ by Loren Cunningham.
I really enjoyed reading this book and it was so exciting to read about his visions for YWAM before the school was formed. All the amazing things that God did, gave me goosebumps. It made me think how Big God can be when He has so big Ideas for our lives, and for him, Loren, who got his first glimpse of what God had planned for him, when he was only 13 years old. You have to read this book to understand and experience those moments yourself. Whoever is interested in the story how YWAM was started, should read this book!

What I really liked about our lesson in hearing God’s voice was, that God has a way to speak to everybody in their own special way. Like God knows how to talk to you so that You could hear him!
What I learned also from the lesson this week was that you have to understand who is in charge of your thoughts and ideas. There is a saying that: When God closes a door, he’ll open a window, or something like that. But you have to know God, and his character to recognize if it was him who opened the door or closed it. It could also be Satan, or you yourself.
SO it really helped me because now I want to get to know him and his character real good in order to understand his plans, and to hear His voice not mine or Satans!
THis week we also got our one-on-ones : A person we will spend time with (a staff member) and talk to and pray with! WE will also have small groups where we will discuss our lessons, and share our stories, what God has told us this week etc.
What was really awesome about this week was that, even though it was our first week, we were so open to share our stories, or memories of what happened to us when we were younger. Some people really opened up and shared personal experiences with everybody. It was nice to get to know people through their happy moments or something sad that has happened to them.
I enjoy listening to our stories, it makes you feel like one big hamily! And we are, one big family here in DTS!

I hope I am able to keep you guys updated as much as I can.
PLease keep me in prayers, I will be very thankful!!

Prayer request!

My dear friends,

I ask you to join me in prayer. Since I've been here in Texas, everything has been so wonderful. All my friends have been so nice to me and so caring! It is so hard for me to sometimes understand the love God wants to show me through my friends!
There is just one little thing that is bothering me.. after talking to my friend about what is bothering my heart, she told me to post this here so people could pray for me.
So I turn to you my friends, please pray for me as I will be leaving for YWAM, Madison, this coming Sunday, pray that I can overcome these little obstacle's I have with my visa.
When I made it to the customs in Atlanta, they had told me I can only stay here in the US 6months at a time, and because I came 2 weeks earlier, my visa will end about 2 weeks before my training program will end in Madison. I wrote my school about that fact and they told me it is ok if my visa will end before, that I would get enough credit to finish the program and turn home earlier then everybody else. Hearing that, made me so sad. I really had hoped for a different ending to my program here in Wisconsin, and it was hard for me to see that I might have to return home earlier, unless... after spending time out of the States for a month or so (before my 6 months is over), and on my return, visiting this office, I might be given an extentsion. But this might not be happening.

So my prayer is that God would do a miracle, I really want to stay here until the program is over. And I pray for trust in Him, that if He brought me here, he won't bring me back before my time is over. Though I don't know what God has planned for me and maybe returning home earlier is part of His plan in my life..
Please pray with me that whatever happens with the Visa,
#is it a miracle that I can stay here until the program is over, go back to Texas and spend a bit more time with friends, then return home;
#or leaving the program earlier then others,
that I would still bring glory to him, in everything, in every situation!

Thank you for being supportive and thinking about me and praying over me!
I am so blessed to have my brother's and sister's in Christ!

Travelling

Hello my dear,

I haven't posted is a long time and I am sorry for that. There is actually so much to say about all that has been happening in my life and how Generous God has been, how loving and the best care taker, He is with me!!
I am just gonna breafly say that God took care of my school intuition and noh he Will help me with outreach fees! He Loves me and I do not deserve that, but I am still loved, worth it or not, cause Jesus died for my sins!

I wanted to write about my trip to US, it was loooooooong but I made it, safely!
This time I will also write in Estonian, because there might be some people, who prefer their own language:)


So it all started in ESTONIA, TALLINN, August 28 and it all started and hour later than it should have!
So my first flight was late in Tallinn already and it made me think if I will make it to the next flight or not. Estonian air was very nice though, a small airplane but since the flight was only about 2h to Paris, it was no biggy! But when we landed in Paris I only had about 10-15 min to catch my flight and I knew I also had to check-in again to get my next ticket.. I don't know why they did that, but I knew there is no way I am gonna make it. And I knew it already before knewing how Huge the airport in PAris is.. Good that I wasn't wanting to run and try to catch my flight. SO I had to get a next flight to TX but the people at the service said I will have to fly through another state because there is no more straigt flights to TX. I got a flight through Atlanta, Georgia and I had about 2,5h before that flight.
Getting to the right place was hard, because like I mentioned, Paris airport is Huge!! I almost got lost and I had to ask for directions fiew times, but I made it, to get to the right place I had to get on a fast train, like the underground one, that took me to the right place. Btw did you know that even Paris airport after going through the security is like a fashion city.. they had a lot of high fashion brand stores and it looked like a huge mall somewhere nice! I was not even wanting to go in there and see what they sell, cause if I like something I know I would not be able to afford it, ever.. probably!
But waiting for my flight was good, I even got to be online for 15min, before I had to start paying for my internet time. So that gave me a chance to tell Courtney and Ralph that instead of 2pm I will be in Houston airport 23:05 !
My flight to Atlanta was quite nice. We had a nice big plane and I was seated under the window and there was no neighbours next to me, so I had space to get comfortable!
Flight to Atlanta was 9,5h and I was able to sleep a little bit, enjoy one meal on the plane, that was eatable, and watch two movies and a tv show! The last snack/meal was not so good and I think my tummy was not happy to eat it, and because I was in the air for so long I started feeling a bit sick as well.
When I made it to Atlanta and passed the security and thought oh I get to go to my gate pretty easily, I was wrong. Instead of going to pick up my luggage and checking it in again I was escorted to a box, made out of glass. I wasn't alone.. the guy who escorted said I have to go there and wait until they call my name, he did not say why I was sent there..scary huh?..
Well when I got in there there was quite a lot of people, also one guy from France, who was on the same flight with me, not one of them looked calm, or happy. I tried really hard not to think anything negative or be look scared, but inside I was! I had no idea what they will ask me or what happens next. I was basically the last one they asked to come out and talk to the security. They asked my why I was there, why for so long, and some other questions. I showed them my school letter so that saved me from talking a lot.. because I was sceared and couldn't get the words out at the beginnign, but after they checked my luggage, told me I can be in the States only 6months, telling me how good my english is that I sound like a valley girl, and telling me that they don't want to catch me working, also that I have to leave the country before 6months to be able to finish my program, and fly home, not stay here, I was able to go..!!! I was able to get to my gate and I still had enough time to grab something to drink&eat ! I was so releaved. I also saw the guy from France and he was very happy as well. I bet.. Anybody who goes through 30min of not knowing what is going on and being scared they will be sent back, will be happy when walking freely at the airport and waiting for the next flight!
From Atlanta to Houston, the flight was short but I was out! I slept the whole time, opened my eyes only for twice, I was just so tired of everything, I didn't even want to fly, but I had to. Seeing Houston in night lights made me happy to be there, to be in TX and not to worry about flying for another 2weeks!
Now I am here in TX, in Bryan, writing you a letter at 5AM, time when I should be sleeping, but I am not.. I think it might be "airplane tiredness" ha ! Well I am happy and blessed and loved!
God took good care of me while travelling!
Thank you everybody who supported me and prayed for me! Prayer's where heard !


Reis USA’sse:
Algas minu jaoks Eestist, 28 August ja lõppeb siis Texases õhtul kell 23:05. Lisaks sellele tuleb veel Bryan’isse ka jõuda!

Tänane päev on olnud väga pikk!
Lennujaama jõudes ei olnud mul veel tunnet, et lähen reisile, täitsa tavaline olek oli. Lisaks sellele meie lend hilines umbes tund aega, kuna nad ootasid teiselt lennult tulevat stjuuardessi. Seega jõudsime Pariisi tund aega hiljem ja ma jäin automaatselt maha oma järgmisest lennust Houston’isse.
Pidin minema siis custom service’isse, et broneerida uus lend Texasesse. Neil oli pakkuda lend, mis läheb läbi Atlanta, Georgia ja jõuab Houston’i lennujaama kell 23:05.
Lend Atlantasse algas väga hästi, kuid lõpp vajus juba käest ära, sest olla lennukis 9tundi järjest ei ole kõige mugavam ja lõbusam tegevus. Ma isegi tundsin, nagu mul oleks paha olla, umbes nagu bussi või laevaga sõites. Tundub, et ma ei talu väga pikki reise!
Jõudes siis Atlantasse, mul polnud õrna aimugi, mis mind ees ootab.
Minnes läbi security’st ei saanud ma kohe edasi liikuda lennujaama sisse, kõigepealt, mu pass pandi kollase äärega läbipaistvasse kilekotti ja paluti minna lähedal oleva töötaja juurde, kes mind siis pidi edasi eskortima. Alguses ma mõtlesin, et okei kuna olen international, siis nad ehk hoolitsevad mu eest ja saadavad mu õigesse kohta, kuid tegelikult see ei olnud nii, ma mõtlesin küll, et miks mu pass pandi sellisesse kotti ja varsti sain ma aru miks.
Nimelt mind saadeti siis kõrval asuvasse läbipaistvasse poksi, kus olid ka teised inimesed peale minu. Tundus, et nad kõik oleksid sattunud pahandustesse ja nüüd nad siis pidid ootama mingis eraldatud boksis, et teada saada, kas nad üldse saavad siseneda Ameerika riiki.
Seal boksis oli ka üks minuga samalt lennult tulnud prantslane. Ta ei paistnud väga rõõmus olevat. Ma muidugi seostasin seda kohta automaatselt ühe filmi olukorraga, kus briti tüdruk sisenedes Ameerika riiki, viidi ülekuulamisele, kuna ta oli eelnevalt oma visa ajast üle olnud. Ning minu boksi juures oli ka investigation room või noh ülekuulamisruum, intervjueerimisruum!
Mu süda peksis kõvasti terve selle aja seal oodates ja kuulates kuidas mõningad inimesed juba endast välja läksid ja vastavat kõnepruuki kasutasid.
Ma tundsun nagu on võimalus, et ma ei pääsegi USA’sse ja see ajas mind segadusse ja pani kartma. Ma üritasin kõigest väest siiski rahulikuna püsida, ja mitte paista ärritunud. Kui ma olin seal juba näinud enamus inimesi ära minevat, siis tuli ka minu kord minna turvatöötaja juurde, kes laua taga istus ja vastata küsimustele. Nimelt minult küsiti minu siinviibimise põhjust ja rääkides, et olen vabatahtlikuna programmis nimega YWAM , oli mul hea meel, et olin koolipoolt vastava kirja kaasa võtnud. Kui nad küsisid, et kus ma inglise keelt olen õppinud, siis nad olid imestunud, et see on saavutatud Eestis olles, kuna ühel turvatöötajal olevat sõber eestist, kelle inglise keel on vene aksendiga. Minu puhul seda ei olnud muidugi, nad ütlesid, et olen nagu Valley girl, mida iganes see peaks ka tähendama! Ha..
Edasi palusid nad mul tuua ära oma kohver ja minna sellega edasi järgmise mehe juurde, kes pidi minult samuti küsimusi esitama ja veenduma minu kohvri sisus. See oli natukene naljakas, kuidas se mees võttis lahti mu kohvri ja uuris läbi mu kõik asjad, seega ta nägi ka minu isiklikke esemeid, mida tavaliselt  võõrastele ei näidata (aluspesu jne). Sama tegi ta ka mu seljakoti ja booklet kotiga. Samuti ta küsis, kui suure summaga ma reisin, sest rahakotis mul ju raha ei olnud, kuid ta oli rahul, nähes mu suurt „rahakukrut“. Seejärel pidin minema sama mehe juurde tagasi ja ta pani mulle templid igalepoole ja ütles, et võin Ameerikas viibida ainult 6kuud, peale seda peaksin lahkuma, kuid see peaks toimuma ennem kui 6kuud läbi saab ja seejärel tagasi tulles minema mingisse kontorisse, kus ma saan pikendust. Kuid ta ütles, et kui see programm läbi saab, siis tuleks ikka koju minna peale seda!
Samuti lisati, et ma ei tohi töötada, et they don’t want to catch me working, I got that !
Andes passi tagasi, saingi tulema, nüüd ootan oma lendu, sest mul on veel aega. Tahaksin väga Starbucksi minna ja ühe kohveiini laksu osaliseks saada :D
Süüa tuleb ka, sest lennuki toit, mis meile viimasena veel anti, polnud just kõige parem, maitsvaim!
Njäm lähme siis USA burxi sööma :D
