| Ha ha ha random title I know, it's what's playing on my computer....looks like my brother downloaded some songs I normally would not...ha ha...Gotta love the hip hop. 
Overdue update. Sorry, I haven't really felt like I've had much to write about, but actually I guess I do.
I'm really enjoying this whole independence and work thing. I like my job so far, and I love coming home at night and being done with the work day. I love being able to plop down on the sofa every night and not have to worry about catching up the next night for what I didn't do the night before. I don't like however, that I have to get up at the but crack of dawn every day! It's turned me into an old lady, and I most of the time have to go to bed at 10...that's a lie....9.....
So my really big news is that I bought a townhouse!!! It's a 3 bedroom, two and a half bathroom townhome that will be built from the ground and ready for me to move in at the beginning of next year!! I cannot express how absolutely excited I am about this. Every time I drive by (it's on my way home every day) I get more and more excited that I will have a house and cannot think of how much God has blessed me and moving down to Georgia this summer. I def feel that it's a little bit of a reward from working so hard these past couple of years. God is sooooo good.
Still looking for a Church, but am excited about the Church I found for this weekend. ha ha...It's hard trying to find a new church when you've gone to and loved the one you went to at home forrrrrr 10? years...wow...I didn't realize it was that long...but I guess it has been...I miss the people and the comfortable feeling of walking into church. But it's kinda exciting to be in a new church, fresh where I get to meet new people and get to be involved in different groups. We shall see! I know that God will provide a place for me to worship since I know he brought me down here, and gave me first a free place to live, a great little apartment while I'm waiting for my house, and then an awesome home aaand a good job. God is faithful!! I thought it would be hard living by myself, but I have to say I enjoy not having to worry about what a roommate or another person is doing or what i want to leave around or keep clean. I can do whatever I want when I want!! which usually means plopping myself down on the sofa and watching my shows ha ha..
Any who. That's my update. Sorry it was so delayed. I'm really liking it down here so far...it's hard to get to know where everything is and i feel really out of place at times, but i'll be home Over Thanksgiving weekend, so I'll see if I get homesick for GA or if I get homesick to want to stay in VA.
I've decided the first person who comes to visit me gets a dinner downtown!! I got a really nice gift card for some of the restaurants in Buckhead, so whoever gets their bootie down here first gets dinner on CWC ha ha ha
Okay, I have to get to bed....I'm going to be so tired tomorrow....TGIF!!!

| Patience = in God's time, not mine
"Let me ask you something. If someone prays for patience, you think God gives them patience? Or does he give them the opportunity to be patient? If he prayed for courage, does God give him courage, or does he give him opportunities to be courageous? If someone prayed for the family to be closer, do you think God zaps them with warm fuzzy feelings, or does he give them opportunities to love each other?"
--Evan Almighty
I thought that was an interesting perspective 
P.S. I love Virginia Syptak. She's one cool cookie

| I'm really confused.
I'm so ready to be out of Virginia, but it seems that the opportunities that I'm being given are all keeping me here. I am quite ready for new faces and for a new setting and a new state. I so desperately want to see this country and I want to see this world. I'm so tired of listening to everyone else about the places they've been this summer and looking at all their pictures and then thinking about how I sit on my butt every day and watch TV all day or lay outside and get some sun, or go to the mall and walk around just because I need to get out of the house. I want so desperately to have an adventure. I love my family, and I love spending time with them, but I NEED to get away. I need to start experiencing life for myself without worrying about them and having to take them into consideration when making my plans. I need to move on. It's my time to start life, right?!?!?!?!!! This is where I'm confused because I have these such STRONG desires to get out of Virginia, and I have for the past four years, so why in the WORLD is God keeping me here? I can't take it. I simply am disappointed that I've only gotten interviews mostly in Virginia 30 minutes or an hour away from my house. This just doesn't seem right. Why in the heehaw would I be feeling this way if I wasn't supposed to be gone? Aren't your desires given to you by God? Why are mine conflicting with God's path for me? I'm so confused, I'm so frustrated, and I'm so ready for anything....Why do I have to stay?
