In the Florida Jacksonville Mission!!!

Whew, there it is, my mission call.  I'm going to Florida (and the extreme southern part of Georgia).  I leave for the Provo Missionary Training Center on February 13.  I'll be there, I think six weeks (I'm really not sure how long I spend there) and then I'll leave for Florida from the MTC.

[profile] adjie1026 guessed somewhere warm, but I forgot to write down that my mom had also guessed Florida.  It was while we were discussing missionary clothes shopping, but she didn't want to get anything yet because (and I quote) "We'll get you a bunch of sweaters and stuff and then you'll get called to somewhere like Florida." (hee hee)

As another side note: my cousin actually went to Florida Fort Lauderdale on his mission.  And since I'm only the second grandchild on my mom's side of the family to go on a mission, this might be a trend (you hear that other cousins?  The next one to go'll get sent to Miami or something.  Now that I've said that, they'll go to Alaska ^_^)

Oh, and the thing about the postage?  My mission prep teacher last year had a theory, which sort of still holds true:  If your postage on the mission call envelope is around $1.35 and higher, that means your going foreign.  If it's $1.10-$1.17 and thereabouts, it's stateside.  There were a few anomalies in that class: someone had postage that was $1.24 and they went to Canada and someone actually did have a $1.30 that went to Florida.  I don't know why the postage works like that, but it does.

Well, this'll definitely be a new experience.  The only thing I know about Jacksonville is the Jacksonville Jaguars.  My little sister wondered if I was anywhere near Disney World, though.  I told her no, though Gainsville's (Florida Gators, anyone?) in the mission too *waves to Coach Urban Meyer*

Florida here I come!
