Unexplainable Phenomenons

Alright here's the run down of my life from after graduation to this moment in time: Spent a week at home cleaning out my room so that mother could turn it into a reading room. Yay, I don't have a room at home anymore. Isn't that one of the most depressing things you've every heard. I don't have a room to go to when I'm at home; I have to sleep in my brother's room, which has turned into the guest bedroom. That week went by pretty fast though. You know the great thing about going home is that Mom likes to shower you with presents. If you go shopping, she's like what do you need. You reply, "Oh I'm not really sure." And then you come home with a whole bag of clothes and goodies from the bookstore. It's wonderful.

After that week was up I moved down to Lake Mary, where I am right now typing this up, to live with my godparents, Paula and Tom. I'm staying in David's room right now. I don't really plan on staying here long if I can help it. As soon as I strat making a paycheck besdies saving money to pay back my loans I'm going to start setting aside money to get an apartment. Though all of the apartments in Orlando or around Orlando are so flippin' expensive. The cheapest one I've found so far is almost six hundred dollars which is almost two hundred more than what I was paying in NC. Work at Orlando Journey is going great. We had an adult service the first Sunday I was down in Orlando, which went well. Attendance could have been better, but it's all happening in God's timing so I'm not worried about these things. And last week we had Kidstuff, which always goes well. The families in East Orlando are really responding to this type of media church style.

But to help pay the bills, I've gotten a second job at Universal. I'm going to be an Animated Street Star. Basically I'm one of those people walking around in character outfits. Yes, I know it sounds lame, but it'll pay the bills and it's a great start at a company that likes to move it's employees around and up to better jobs. So we'll see were this goes.

I'm so excited for the kids down in the DR. They're going to have such a great time. They've been there for a week now and I know things are going well. I just want to hear all about it when they get back. See tons of pictures and stories about the lives that were changed and how their own hearts were/are affected.

Graduation

Well, I guess I'm a big girl now. I'm potty trained and I'm graduating from college. Four years. It's gone by so fast, and yet so slow all at the same time. It's unbelievable to think that in three days I'll be walking across the stage in the Ramsey Center accepting my fake diploma from Bardo. Because in all honesty it feels like just yesterday when I came up with Mom for orientation freaking out because Cullowhee was so gosh darn small and unsure of the choice that I had made about Western. But it's amazing how God works, isn't it? In all actuality I probably should have stayed in Florida for school, but then I never would have met some of my best friends in the world. And the opportunities that I have had at the school I never would have anywhere else. But I'm happy to be moving back to Florida. As much as I've enjoyed my four years here, I'm ready to go home and start my life.

That feels so strange. My life. Like I haven't already been living it up to this point. Moving to Orlando is definitely the right choice. I'm so thrilled to be going down there and working at Orlando Journey. It's going to be incredible. Finally I'll get to be involved more than sending blocking through emails and occasionally coming down for a weekend.

Mock oscars went well. Got voted Best Dramatic Actress again this year. It's so odd to think of myself as a dramatic actress, because I love comedy and have always considered that my strong point. It's so frustrating to be leaving here especially when they've decided to do Brighton Beach Memoirs and All in the Timing. two comedies that I simply love. Why does this always happen to me? As soon as I leave the place I was at does a show that I've always wanted to do or would love to participate in.

Mom and Uncle Pat come in on Friday. I'm so excited.

I'm going to be home on Thursday. I'm going home on Thursday. I'll be home on Thursday. Thursday, I'll be home. Thursday, home I'll be. (just trying to see how many different ways I can say it.)

Well, here's the big thing it's only about 43 or 42 more days until graduation. Yes this includes weekends because you do have to wade through those to get to the big day. I couldn't be anymore excited about graduationn. I can't wait to get home to Florida. I miss the warm weather, the predictable weather. It's been crazy up here. One day hot, the next cold, the next snowing. Simply crazy. That's why I'm always sick. stupid weather.

Next weekend I'm going to Johnson City to throw a bridal shower for Katie. Man, I hope it goes okay. Truthfully I have no idea what I'm doing. I mean, I know what I'm doing for the party, but I have no clue as to whether or not that's good enough. Ugh, as long as she's happy it'll all be okay.

I should be coming home for Easter this year. Well, in the fact that I'll be in Orlando, but I'll still be in Florida. I'm going down to work the OJ service. I had planned on ddriving home that Wed. morning because my classes are done @ 11, but now I think I have to stay until Thursday for rehearsal for a one-act I'm in. Oh well. That's it.
