And I thought all I needed was just one breath to stay afloat.

I've been thinking about school and such. My mom doesn't support me going on missions in the fall over college, but my brain is begging for a break, and my body is pleading to do something other than flip through textbooks and typing up papers. And studying. Oh.. the endlessness of it. When one test is not coming it's another. I found out I have 483 points... out of 420. In British Lit. Well over A status.
I make my decision after the Southeastern visit. Or, I've already made my decision now, but I have to tell my mom when I get back home from the visit. I'm doing DTS. I'm not going to college in the fall, and I am not staying home and working.
That's just all there is to it. I am 18 years old, and I am making this decision independent of my parent's opinions or if they believe I may be wasting money or my time. This is my decision, and I claim it, and I am willing to walk in it.
I'm definitely still sold on doing something with writing in mind. Whether it be editing. I really would like to do something with the new movement of the arts in Christian culture. I, if anything, am done with the watered down taste of Christian writing.
But anyway, Jason leaves soon, so we've been trying to spend as much time together as we can before he goes. Today he wanted to go shopping, so we wound up at the mall for a little while and then Value Thrift. He's the only one who bought stuff, which is kind of ironic. But I am trying to save money. I put my two weeks notice into work this morning, I don't think anyone has read it yet, but they will. I don't know if I am going to try to find another job yet or not right away.
But again anyway, Jason's flight leaves either the 24th or the 25th, and then from that point, for two weeks he cannot have contact with home, and then from there it will be 30 minutes of phone time a week, and letters for 6 months, and then he gets to come home for a week to visit. And I'll get to go up there and visit for a few days too. Going into thie third year together may very well be the most difficult and trying, but if the two of us can get through this, than I am most sure we can get through anything.
