Woohoo

So I've gotten into the habit of updating my journal while I'm supposed to be working...shame on me. But i do get my job done and I'm probably their best worker (so they've told me). Anyway...yesterday was a pretty good day. Nothing spectacular about it except that I got to eat again for the first time. It was nice even though it wasn't all that tasty. Plus I got to meet with Mac and Cheese and that's always good. I love her to death...I am so glad I asked her to be my discipler...it was a bit of a random decision but it was definitely a good one. She can always make me smile and she's great at offering a different perspective on life when I'm down. I really look up to her. After that I went home to watch the Amazing Race season finale...by myself, but that's ok. I was a little disappointed that Roomiestar didn't make it back in time to watch it with me, but I have to be understanding...I can't hog her all to myself. But when she got back we talked a bit and it was good...except when she asked me what I would do if I didn't get accepted to seminary. That had me bummed out for a little while but then I decided I wouldn't let it keep me down. Yes, it is a possibility but through events in my life recently...I strongly believe that this is what I'm meant to do and I will continue to believe that until I get a letter that says, "i'm sorry but you can't come to school here." On that note...I've been filling out my application to Columbia online and I printed out my reference forms to give to people to have sent in. The website has a few different things listed as requirements for applications so I decided to call and clarify for sure what they needed from me. So I called and I asked the lady and she told me and then I told her that I could find the questionnaire for the essay, so she looked on the website and couldn't find it either. Then she was like. "I'm glad you called because we didn't know about that. You'll do great in graduate school." So that was REALLY encouraging. Now I'm stoked. I asked her how long it takes to hear back once everything has been submitted and she said that they try to let people know within 10 business days once everything has been received. So I'm going to try to have everything done and sent in by next Tuesday or Wedensday which means I should find out if I've been accepted by the first week of January. So if I seem on edge that week...you'll know why. It's kinda scarey. I mean I applied to college and everything but I was never nervous about that because I was super-student back in high school. Things have changed since then and my grades aren't all that glamorous. They're not that bad either. But it's still not a certaintly that I'll be accepted like it was when I applied to WSU. So I'm really excited but I'm also nervous. So if y'all could keep that in your prayers over the next few weeks, I would REALLY appreciate it.

So yeah...I'm gonna take my lunch now then I'll actually get to work, I promise. Then I'm going to the base to get gas and groceries and to tell PC he needs to come over to the house tonight to hang out with Roomiestar and me. I hope you're all having a GREAT day! Peace out ladies!!

God bless!
