It's been awhile since i have gotten a chance to write down some of my thoughts and i have missed sharing my life with you all.
All of a sudden time seems to be moving at a rapid pace without any sign of slowing down. I am finishing up my fall term ar Mt. Hood community college, my family sold our house i have lived in for the past 17 years, i got a new job and oh yeah...im moving 2100 miles away!!!! I haven't wanted to tell this to anyone since this past year has been a series of let-downs and rerouting of my plans and priorities. I have a tendency to get an idea in my head and go for it until i achieve the desired result. The problem with this is i forget to take the time to ask God what his plans are and often learn my lesson the hard way.
There is a new adventure i believe God is leading me on right now and this one is much bigger than i thought i could handle. Sometimes he stretches us in capacities we didn't think we could do on our own. This venture is leading me to transfer colleges in the wintertime. In my search for where to go a school a school in the midwest caught my eye. It had exactly what i want to major in and in such a big city the opportunities seem more available than Gresham. This excites me but there are many obstacles and unanswered questions that i still have to figure out. The school is called Depaul and it's a smaller private school located in the heart of downtown Chicago. It has a program for P.R and advertising that focussed on the communications aspect instead of the business part of it. This is the first place i have found a school with everything i wanted but the expense of this "perfect" school still seems to be the thing standing in my way.
In hopes to save some money i am going to be transferring to a community college close by the city to save money and acquire residency before switching to Deapaul. As I write this im realizing that my move date is less than a month from today! It is all coming so fast. A job, living situation and classes all need to fall into their perspective spots and im praying that it will all work itself out in one way or another. Im both excited and extremely nervous to make this new jump in my life and trying to trust that i will be strong enough to make it on my own. I want to believe that i can meet amazing people to enrich my life in Chicago just as i have in Oregon. I am going to miss everyone so much but i ask that as i journey out into the big city you keep my travels and experiences in your prayers. Thank you for helping shape me into the person i am, i will miss my friends and family more than you know.
