It's the 1st of the month which means the movement has officially started! Paint your nails GOLD in honor of the children who are battling cancer, survived cancer, and lost their life to cancer! The kids need support too, and this childhood cancer survivor is doing whatever it takes to make people AWARE of this terrible disease that affects so many kids lives!
Paint your nails GOLD for Childhood Cancer Awareness Month
It's almost that time of the year again...CHILDHOOD CANCER AWARENESS MONTH (September). This year I want to spread awareness in a different way than last year. I want EVERYBODY to go out and buy some GOLD FINGERNAIL POLISH and PAINT YOUR FINGERNAILS GOLD to spread awareness. Take pics of your GOLD and post them on ALL social media sites to SPREAD AWARENESS FOR THE KIDS! I want to see how many of you will SHOW OFF YOUR GOLD. Childhood cancer is real and it has affected me and many of my amazing friends. WILL YOU SPREAD THE WORD WITH US???
CHILDHOOD CANCER AWARENESS MONTH IS APPROACHING!
I have been away from Tumblr for WAY too long! Between graduating with a major in Finance and a minor in Spanish, to being accepted into graduate school, to moving to Savannah, GA for school...life has been amazingly overwhelming! But with all of that being said, Childhood Cancer Awareness Month is right around the corner (September)!!!! With me pursuing a Master's in Public Administration with a concentration in Nonprofit Management, my goal is to ADVOCATE AND EDUCATE FOR CHILDHOOD CANCER AWARENESS! #GoGold! You will definitely be seeing more posts from me from now on!

Little Corn Island, Nicaragua
Hola! Well I just wanted to tell a little story of my adventures in on our first trip in Nicaragua. We journeyed out from Bluefields by boat to Big Corn Island. The boat takes about 5 hours to cross over the open sea. I personally didn't get sick or scared, but others did. Guess I have tough skin! However, where we were sitting we did get a little wet. From Big Corn Island we took a speed boat (about 15 mins) to Little Corn Island. Little Corn is definitely catered for tourists. In Little Corn I went snorkeling, horseback riding, and explored the island. Not to mention I tried local food such as rundown, which is like a caribbean stew. To say that the island and the clear blue waters were beautiful is definitely an understatement. It was definitely MAGNIFICENT. Not to mention everyone was so nice and welcoming. The ride back to Bluefields, however, was the most terrifying experience of my life! The boat left at around 11pm that night and we were in for a treat. IT STARTED STORMING. Now I would call the boat that we were on a boat more catered for cargo. There were limited seats and the seats that they did have were not secure. They did have hammocks that you can lay in, but I was definitely not doing that! It was cold, dark and raining. The waves were coming into the boat. Literally the boat was tilting side to side and people were sliding. It was so scary. So much water got into the boat that they had to stop it for a while to use buckets to empty out the water. The ride that usually takes about 5 hours took about 7 hours. It was truly an experience that I will remember for sure. Let's just say that I do not think that boats will not be in my plans in the near future!! *It's all a part of the International Extravaganza*
My new website
I know I am behind on posting on here, but I will update my Tumblr very soon!!! But until then, check out my new website www.priscapatrick.com to see what Purpose For Life has been up to here in Nicaragua!
Hola from Nicaragua
We have been in Bluefields a little over a week now, and what an eventful time it has been. From attempting to pack only 30 pounds worth of luggage for the flights, fumbling through customs, not understanding a word that anyone was trying to tell us, all while meshing together nine different personalities, I personally have had to adjust my way of thinking and accomplishing simple tasks. Someone would think that getting to our final destination for the next three months would be the hard part. In all honesty, the most challenging part of our situation is living in a house with eight Jackson State students, one student from Mississippi Valley State, two guys from Nicaragua, a professor from the school (BICU), and all the little Nicaraguan creatures! We soon found out that we do not have ANY hot water, and on top of that, the water randomly gets cut off at nights or for hours in the day. Now I know that sounds bad, but I have been having the time of my life! I have been trying new foods, seeing new places and meeting new people. We have had many bonding experiences so far. For example, the other night the water was shut off, and I really wanted to wash my hair. We have jugs of purified water here at the house, so the girls and I decided to go on the front porch and wash my hair with that water. It was dark and raining so you can only imagine the craziness that occurred. Nevertheless, my hair came out oh so pretty, thanks to my wonderful roommates! All in all, I believe that this study abroad experience will be the most enriching time of my college career.
Studying Abroad!
Hola from Nicaragua! For the next 3 months I will be here studying Spanish and working for another nonprofit. Please pray for me and I will keep everyone updated on my adventures. I pray that this experience will help me with my Purpose For Life!

Everyone is returning back to school and beginning the new semester while I am sitting back relaxing waiting to go study abroad. Yep...it's a totally awesome feeling!
Whew...I've been BUSY!
I know that I have been absent from posting, but I have been really busy! Here is an update on my life right now:
I have TECHNICALLY finished my undergraduate studies with a major in Finance and a minor in Spanish.
I have had very positive reports from every one of my doctors this year, with every one of them (neurosurgeon, cardiologist, physician, optometrist, and even dentist) all saying that I am in stable condition.
I am preparing to leave the United States for 3 months to study abroad in Nicaragua for Spanish as well as a Finance internship.
I am prepping to take the GRE before I leave.
I am also trying to prepare a personal statement for grad schools so I can be accepted, with my dreams receiving a Masters in Public Administration with a concentration in Nonprofit Management.
I have successfully met my fundraising goals for the year with MADD and Childhood Cancer Awareness.
And finally, I am still in the process of making Purpose For Life an official nonprofit organization.
I have been super busy but I LOVE it. I am too blessed not to give back and accomplish my dreams!
