Welcome!!!

Hi, my name is Blessing Havana. My friends call me Bee or Bless, I actually prefer Princess Bibi hehe. I'm currently studying abroad for a semester at the University of Edinburgh in Scotland, UK and I created this blog just as way for family and friends to keep up with what's going on here. I am very excited for what God is going to do in my life and through me while I'm here, I'm excited to meet new people, to make covenant friends, and to learn things that will change the way I look at Scotland, and at life. My goals: to grow immensely in every possible way, to be used by God and to walk in my purpose, to have a GREAT time and to lose a little bit of weight (hold me accountable ya'll).
So friends, I hope you join me on this journey...it will be fun and I'll do my best to keep you posted.
Much love,
Princess Bibi :)

When you have faith, all things are possible!











My silence has been justified by the fact that exams have been in full swing this side of life. Indeed, they are still in full swing, I look forward to the day of my freedom, in three days time yeah! Thus said, my time in Edinburgh is coming to a close. I haven't been up to much, besides studying and taking exams...hanging out with friends, and sleeping. My clock is really messed up, I've been staying awake the entire night, going to bed about 6-8am, and waking up about 11am. It has become really difficult to study during the day, we'll see how I'm going to adjust after exams. Did I mention I'm going home? Zimbabwe yeah!!! Looking forward to it, really. There's no place like home. It hasn't taken you long I'm sure to see I have no stories haha.

I do have a lesson to share though, that when you faith, you can do anything. I mean seriously, anything. This is coming from someone who literally messed up a really important interview, but because I believed in my God of second chances,they emailed to set up a second interview, imagine that! I got into my Philosophy exam pretty much doomed to fail. I had spent the entire week studying for my Law exam because I heard it was challenging, plus it formed 100% of my grade. Two days later I sat in a Philosophy exam, closed. But I wrote and I know beyond doubt, I did well. Thank God ey. So my message to you is this: we will never be perfectly prepared, for anything. Sometimes we are not ready at all, sometimes we have very little knowledge, but if you believe, and hold on to hope, you will come through, you will make it. But if you lose faith, and tell yourself you're done, 75% of the time, you are done. Faith works, I wouldn't be here without it. Bless you. Two more posts and my study abroad is over :(
Check out pictures of Edinburgh in Christmas, and some of my friends over at Hope! Church. Bless you all and send me some prayers for this coming week, I so need them!
