Summer Worries

So I am really worried about this summer. I feel like I should already have it all laid out and planned, and it is only January! This is scary, I need to find an internship of some sort, and I am not sure where I want to get one. I can stay in the area, or go on a crazy adventure to another country. This is the summer to do it! I am slowly giving up control of my plans to God, because only then will it all play out. This is tough though, I like controlling my life. I enjoy knowing what my future holds, but this summer, it is a mystery to me.

I am excited for this summer as well. I know I will be presented with lots of new opportunities and adventures no matter what I end up doing, it would just be nice to know already.

I do have some goals this summer though that I know I want to accomplish, so here they are:
  • Grow in my relationship with God, become a woman that seeks after him daily and who has surrendered everything to him.
  • Get an internship that teaches me a lot!
  • Talk to Andrew ;) since he will be overseas all summer, I figured this would be a good goal.
  • Visit somebody, that lives somewhere I have never been, Texas? New York? I want an adventure
  • Work for the water park to get my tan on (if I am staying at home)
  • Create a new drink at Caribou
  • Read non-fiction books, so I can learn a lot
  • Hone my photography skills
  • Spend time alone
  • Go camping
  • Blog a lot
  • Figure out how to be a Twitter genius
  • Make lots of food with awesome recipes!
  • and I will think of more :)
Well that is all for now, time to apply for more internships.

Oh I have an interview for one next week! Working with events and fundraising, this will be a great spring internship opportunity!

Please be praying for me in the decision making process and to have peace in the thing we call life :)

Introduction

So for the new year I really wanted to start something that was different, something I have never done before, which is why I am starting a blog! This first post this morning will be short because I had this idea when I had limited time to write, and I got really caught up in designing the background. That is something about me, I love making things look good and I love getting it just right to fit my personality, the blog still has a ways to go, but I am learning! I am excited to start this blog, all about my life as a college student, a daughter, a sister, a girlfriend, and a friend. I hope to include tid-bits about everything, from the recipes I love to use, to advice I have recently been given, thoughts on current events, and thoughts about my devotions.

To learn a bit more about me, you can look to your right and read the "about me section.
