School Started

It's not very often that I get very excited about stuff like this, but today, good things happened at school.

This past week, I have been so stressed about getting into the class that I wanted. The class was full, but I figured I could go to that class and see if I could get in anyway. For my back-up, I had signed up for a class at the Falcon College, close to where I live. The problem was, I would need a car to get to that College anyway-- thus, having to take my Mum to work and my brother to school in the mornings, driving the whole half hour back to Falcon, go to class, then come back into town and pick up my Mom and brother. That being said, if I had a class in Falcon, it would pretty much be a disaster for me. Me would be no happy if I had to go to that class. But I don't! I actually got into the class I wanted! It was a very welcome surprise.

After finding out that I could go to the class I wanted, I had to go to the office and register for it. If you know me, I really don't like talking to strangers. At all. So, standing in line for 15 minutes with strangers, waiting to talk to a stranger, was really intimidating. I kept praying God, please give me a splurge of outgoing-ness! I really need to sound intelligent. ...It's really funny when I tell God exactly what I need, and He gives me exactly that. When I went up to talk to the lady at the desk, I felt like the words coming out of my mouth weren't even mine. It was like God gave me a different mind. I walked out of that room really confident and happy =). Then, I got Sheree to wait in the bookstore line with me a-very-long-time. When I got to the check out, oops! Sorry! They can't take my debit card because it's in my Mother's name, not mine. What? They directed me to an ATM so I could get some cash, but the ATM wasn't working. Aw, man! I went back to the check out and told them that it wasn't working. They sent me to the TCA building ATM, so I grabbed a couple of friends, and headed over there. Oh, no! They're closed! Grrrr! I went back to the check out...told them that TCA was closed...and they made and exception for me! They let me use my Mum's card to pay for my book. So, that made me happy =) Like, really happy.

So, reviewing, I got into the class that I wanted, I talked to a stranger, and I got my textbook after very much stressing. But, that's not all the happy things that happened today-

Guys, I have a job interview. Hahaha! After 20+ stinking applications this summer, I finally got a breakthrough! Bath and Body Works is the place. Maybe you've heard of it? It's the place that sells yummy smelling things. Mmhmm. I'm going in on Friday! I'm so happy!!!

So, I like today. Today was good. Life is good. God is good. Chocolate's good too. =)

Be Bold. Be Blessed. Be Bodacious.
