So.... Graduation has come and passed. College is officially over. I will never have anymore tests, papers, portfolios, literature reviews to write (unless I want to), proposals to write, or anymore presentations to do unless I want to!!! Montreat College will always be my second home, I fell in love with the people (my friends) and my boy. It also did a lot more for me, it was my guide to find the passions God has set on my heart now- adventure and the environment. Going to Australia is the next page in this chapter of life, and I'm terrified... I have been in school way over half my life, and this is something totally new that has to come with adjustment. I love change and I thrive in it, because that means I'm growing, and I love that feeling. but.... good grief it is so scary right now, I'm living at home with three cats and my parents... not exactly living the dream you could say... I'm a little in shock and struggling in that. I have become so independent because of Christ and I know I need some down time for a bit, but my heart is so restless... this makes is so scary. God is in control though, right?
Brock is on a road trip with his new found friend this past year, Forest Johnson. they are inseparable, it's so good to see! they left May 16th and on the 17th they were already in Colorado! They are going to Denver, arches, bryce canyon, Zion Nat'l parks, and then to flagstaff and on down to Tucson, AZ. Next week their going down to Mexico for a couple of days.... what a trip!!!! AH! so much fun!
My friends come home soon from graduating college too and me and my best friend are going on a road trip too! we're going to DC, New York, and Boston... all on around $100!!! how did we do this? well there is this public transportation bus called MegaBus. You can get a ride for $1!!! what a deal! anyways, thats my excitement until Australia... speaking of Australia my Traveling Visa was approved and the country has officially said I'm allowed to come! WHOO HOO!!! Life is good, just super scary.... but good.
Check out the sweet Graduation pics!
Writings of someone who's name means work of the Lord, yet seems to be struggling with how to do that exactly. This will hopefully give me a little perspective into my own life.

A new life right around the corner
It's a week and a half before graduation!!! I have no other major responsibilities, all my finals are over but turning in some portfolios which are already finished.... How do you conceptualize this new life that is about to start? I will never be in college again and I will be in a totally new life and a totally new way of life too. I am not tied down only thing tying me down is a job... and its in AUSTRALIA!!! after that who knows what could happen!!! wow... I could do whatever I want, Brock and I aren't planning on getting married any time soon either so how do you just live and do what you want... there is this crazy amount of freedom that I don't know what to do with! It's GREAT! sooo.... life is about to come on quick and how do I be prepared for this... hopefully college did that haha.... I did spend a ridiculous amount of money for it, so I better be prepared. I will Trust in the Lord and I believe he will do amazing things with me, I ask whoever reads this, it becomes their prayer for me as I enter into this new life. love you all.
