So my mom was talkin to me a bit about this loan that I was pre-approved on. She sent in the application overnight to where ever it is to be sent, and it should have arrived yesterday at noon. So now we're waiting on the verdict as to whether or not I got the loan. So in the middle of this little chat she asks me if I was prepared to take a year off school. Cuz beyond this loan, she's not sure what to do next.
I said no.
But as I sat and thought about it, it made sense. Without this loan, I have to tell HU that I don't have the money to pay for this year. Which means I would have to take this next year off and save up or some such nonsense.
That would suck balls. Hardcore.
I'm really hoping that I get this loan. But as I sit here and write...err...type and think about all this and figure out what my feelings are, I don't feel worried that I won't get this loan. I guess logically there is a chance that I don't get it, but I don't have this knot in my gut that makes me sick; the kind of knot you get when you ask that special girl (or guy to the female readers) what her feelings are for you when you're not sure if she likes you to the same degree you like her. I've had that knot before and know what it feels like and what it means. But I don't have that.
I'm not sure what that means. I'm not sure if it's some weird ESPN thing or some supernatural vibe telling me I'm gonna get it, or whether it's the chili I just ate. I'm hoping for the first one! Although, the chili was out of this world (thanks mom!!) so who knows ;-)
Either way, it'd be sweet if you all could pray for me and my parents about all this ridiculous money school thing. It's never easy, and it will only get tougher. And none of us really knows what we are doing. So just pray that things work out and that we would be able to see God's game plan in all this. Pray that we have trust that it will work out; pray that we have patience with each other; pray for guidance; pray for anything else you can think of that would help in this situation. Thanks a ton!
Peace.
