Finals

So, it is Sunday morning before finals, and I am just so lookin forward to Friday because I will be done with my first semester of Sophomore year. It has been such a busy busy semester, which I guess is my fault for takin 18 credits (6 classes) and working 20 hours a week. I have been getting awesome grades in all of my classes which I am so happy about. I have three finals to actually study for, but they happen to be my three hardest classes: Child Development, Leadership Theory & Research and Latin. I have my Psych "final" tomorrow, I say "final" because it is not cumulative, it is one of four tests grades and she drops the lowest grade, so I really wanna kick butt on this one so I can bring up my average. I have my leadership final on Thursday and I will say this is probably gonna be my hardest final, because it is so much information. My Latin final is on Friday and I think by that point I am gonna be so ready to get out of here I might zone out.

Hopefully I can do awesome on these finals and my grades will turn out great.


Oh so yesterday I had the priviledge of taking an 8 hour Driver Improvement Course for the speeding ticket I got this summer on the way to the beach. I thought that having to pay sixty bucks to sit in a room so someone could tell me not to speed from 830 in the morning til 430 in the afternoon was gonna be extremely boring. Well to my joy and surprise it was not that bad, we got a few ten minute breaks and even an hour for lunch, and all we did really was watch this video thing and exchange driving stories! Nan,our "teacher" was a real sweet older lady who called us all sweet pea and sugar and I could not help but think what it would be like if my Grandma were to teach a course like this.

I can not wait to be home for 5 weeks and to just work and make some money without having to worry about school work. I am working at the RAC and Katie's again. I am so excited for Christmas this year because we will actually be home instead of traveling somewhere (don't get me wrong I am itching to be in New York City right now) but it has been so long since we have woken up on Christmas morning and opened presents together.

Lord's Lesson:

So all summer when I was serving on Summer Staff I felt like the Lord was really telling me to be patient and things would happen in his time. I still am feeling convicted by this because I am so impatient and I want to know now the plans that the Lord has for my life, I want to know where I am gonna be five years, am I gonna be teaching already or am I gonna be doing some completely random crazy job? Am I gonna be married? It is so hard to just have faith enough to not worry and wonder about my future. I feel like the Lord is still telling me to just calm down and enjoy life and he will take care of the rest.

For God has said "I will never, never fail to forsake you". - Hebrews 13:5

New Years Resolutions coming soon!
