This Season of Life

Edited: Sorry for this terribly long post! They will not usually be this long!
Where do I even begin?
Well lets start from the veryyyy beginning.
Back in elementary school I said I would be a teacher when I grew up...long story short, that hasn't changed. What did change is that now I am not saying I am beginning the process (or have begun) of becoming an elementary school teacher. I applied to the education program, and got in. It may not seem like such a big deal but I know people personally who didn't get in, because the program is competitive and their expectations are high with grades, letters of recommendations, etc. So last Wednesday when I received the e-mail that I had been accepted I praised God, because only HE helped me through, to get to where I am today.
So, today was the orientation. Oh boy, college just got a lot busier, time consuming, and stressful at an entirely different level. Part of that is because I am "double majoring" in education and english. Next semester, although I was planning on taking 4 emglish upper-division courses, advisors discouraged me from it unless I was willing to "kill myself." The minimum would be 12 papers for the four classes. So I am sticking with 3 english courses, and will take one in the summer, or winter. We'll see.
But, being informed of so much like the 4 NYS exams I have to pass, the 50 hours of field experience every semester, and a bunch of deadlines I must meet.
Oh well, I know that Jesus is still by my side, and I saw that even today, when my ENGLISH ADVISER told me the courses I was going to take would satisfy certain requirements, but in reality THEY DIDN'T. I had my classes all planned out, and then this. BUT God made everything work in such a way, that I was able to take the classes I actually needed to take and have a similar schedule, like my previous, pre-made one. I guess the next two years will be sleep, school, homework, and blogging of course ;) but I will try to be as involved in church as I am now, because my fear is choir might have to go :( On the other hand, I am probably only taking 13 credits, so maybe I will have more time, but then there is the field experience and my linguistics course which I heard is a killer, so we'll see.
Wow if you just read through all that, then wow! Thank you for hearing my thoughts out!
 
For a much funner post check out my friends blog, Diana who confesses about unusual things in her life. Maybe I'll do something like that her sometime.
Now I'm off to working on my paper. I woke up yesterday at 7:30, worked all day on school work til 11:45 pm. (Only had one class that day), and today looks like I'll be up just as long, for I must finish my paper.
Blessings,
