Smoother Sailing

Boy I feel silly! I was freaking out yesterday about what I would do about school, and all the time all I had to do was take a deep breath and trust God! Here's how it worked out: my college (the college of mechanical engineering) has a note on file that I will be away for an internship, and that I will be back in the fall. In the meantime, to remain enrolled at NC State, I will be taking one online course, and amazingly enough, it will be a course that I actually want to take! So, I will be simply working, studying, and hangin' out while in Florida! Hats off to that!

A Little Bumpy

Wow, it's been awhile since my last post! But as the time draws near, I thought I would update with what's happening. Honestly, nothing huge has happened since I got my acceptance letter. I have slowly been preparing to leave, and news of my internship has steadily been spreading 'round town. But as of yesterday I discovered a slight roadblock (hopefully a temporary roadblock). I have to work things out at school, to make sure I will be able to return as a full time Mechanical Engineering student. I don't know as of right now exactly what I will have to do to remain a student, and it has been slightly frustrating trying to contact the school to clear this up. All I can do is pray, pray for peace and that the Lord work it out in His way, not mine (not as easy as I hoped it would be). It is also slowly beginning to dawn on me that in about 2 1/2 weeks I will be in Florida, not North Carolina. In 2 1/2 weeks I will not wake up to see the sun pouring through my personal blinds and my brown fan overhead. I will not be able to pop into my sisters room whenever I want. I will not be able to enjoy my mom's cooking on a regular basis. I will not be able to hear my dad humming his way out to work. I will not be able to kiss my bunny good morning. I will miss all this terribly. But, daily I am also reminded of what is in store for me (if I can even fathom what's in store). I suppose we'll have to wait and see how this all plays out........
