"There is a time for departure, even when there's no certain place to go!"
-Tennessee Williams
That is what I've been feeling lately. I am unsure of a lot of the details regarding my near future because most of my prospective summer jobs have fallen through. I think that it's alright, though. Each day I'm learning to trust completely in God and realize that He will lead me to the places I should be and to the experiences that I need to have. I sure don't know much about Tennessee Williams, but boy did he get it right! It's a daily realization that I don't know exactly where life is leading me, but I know that it's in a great direction. Although I don't know what will be in the future, I know I'm on the right train to get there.
Today was non-stop. Among other things, I:
- Filled out applications, arranged personal reference letters to be written, thanked people for writing reference letters
- Researched housing for next semester (which included a tour of a beautiful Bed & Breakfast, which hopefully will be my home next year)
- Attended all of my classes
- Worked on writing a four-minute speech that I need to present on Friday and helped make posters for the same project
- Rode a bike at the gym
- Enjoyed the most drastic change of weather I've ever seen in a day (sunny to snowy, not the good kind)
- Attended Bread & Soup Nite with friends and enjoyed a great conversation with a great friend
- Wrote this blog post
Although today was pretty stressful, I've been in a great mood all day! Coming off an Easter/Conference weekend high was definitely a factor, but my positive attitude was simply indestructible today! I'm going to include a picture from my Spring Break Adventure this year. Remember to be grateful for your friends, family and for the opportunity to
Tempt the ocean

Thanks for your attitude scott. i really needed a positive uplift. :)

Word. I LOVE that I am in your picture. I feel truly honored :D. I felt very similarly to you last year. Where am I going? It caused me so much grief; it drives me nuts when I don't know my next step. HOw about you become a nanny? :D
