Holy moly
So.. I'm not sure what is going on.. but today was CRAZY.. so, in case you didn't know, the computer placed me in Spanish 3 over the summer. I need to complete four semesters of Spanish (or the equivalent) in order to graduate with an English degree. So, I signed up for the class. Immediately I was aware that I was too advanced for the class, so I took a test, hoping to get into spanish 4 and then only have 1 semester of the language. I tested into Spanish 10-- so now I don't need to take Spanish to graudate, which is great, because I'm behind on my requirements anyway-- but now I'm freaking out because it's the 11th day since school started and I'm looking to sign into a class?? Also, I really like the amount of work I have.. so I decided to go crash an intro to creative writing.. it fulfills an English elective requirement and whatnot. I wrote a persuasive email, I showed up at the class.. the teacher said no. He said he felt really crummy, but he just couldn't do it. I panicked.. I walked out of the building FREAKING out.. what was I going to do? This is the second class to fall through this semester.. I'm never going to graduate because my dad's only paying for four years of this crap, etc. So, I rush to the English department, get dressed down by a woman who basically told me to grow up and see if there were any other available classes. Grudgingly I did just that, but because I have organized my schedule precisely, and my internship hours around that (although those aren't solidified yet), I was worried that there wouldn't be anything. THE ONLY CLASS THAT I HADN'T ALREADY TAKEN, THAT WAS OPEN, AND THAT WAS IN A TIME THAT I COULD CONCEIVABLY MAKE IT TO WAS THE EXACT SAME CLASS I'D JUST TRIED TO CRASH!!
And I'd been praying all morning for God to make it clear and easy for me.... I don't know... It's one of those things that I just can't explain, but if you asked me what the top #2 things I'd like to do if talent, time, the laws of gravity didn't apply, I would say a jazz singer and a writer... and two classes fell through this semester, and both times I signed up for the ONLY open class.. and they happened to be jazz voice and creative writing. Coincidence? Maybe.. but sometimes you can just FEEL God's will in things, and, who knows, I probably won't wind up doing either of these things, but at least now I'm on the right path to find out if I want to. I'm blown away.
Also, Brad. You rock my world so hardcore. And the things you say make me laugh out loud.. even when I'm remembering something you said 2 years ago (eg. Do you ever wonder why my pillow's salty? It's because I cry!-- or Rub my ovaries? What?) and I just feel so blessed by your friendship.
That goes without saying for all 4 of you who ever read this, Jen, Courtney, Rob, and Brad.. you guys rock my world.
