It has been decided

Have you ever felt that whatever opportunities God laid down in front of you has been decided? And that all you needed to do is yield to the prompting of the holy spirit?  That's exactly how I felt with my Fulbright Journey.  Everything happened so fast and before I knew it, I became a Fulbright scholar and now on my third trip here at Uganda Christian University Mukono campus.  Before I traveled back to UCU this year, I had the privileged to be invited by the Fulbright headquarters staff with Council for International Exchange of Scholars (CIES) in Washington, DC (1400 K Street) on May 27, 2016 during their brown bag lunch session.

As I've posted earlier about coming back to Motherland, Africa, I have not posted on this blog since 2014.  Actually I'm embarrassed to write that I forgot about this blog.  Now that I discovered it again, here I am. I'm back!

Today is my 7th day since I arrived at Entebbe airport almost midnight on May 29, 2016.  Actually I'm counting today as my 6th day as I travelled over 17 hours from Washington, DC to Amsterdam Tripoli Netherlands connecting to Kigali, Rwanda and finally at Entebbe.  Sunday midnight was a blurr so I'm counting only 6 days of being here.

Yes, it has been decided by our Master Planner that I will be back here to UCU Mukono campus to teach at the Faculty of Health Sciences, Department of Nursing. Masters of Nursing Science.
