Life As A Senior

Where do I begin? A question I have asked myself a lot recently when people inquired after my life's adventures.

School. It is that time of year again. This year starting school carried a bit more excitement, mystery, and curiousness though. Monday was my last first day of school in high school. Next time I say "My first day of school is..." I will be treading on new grounds. For now though I am enjoying my senior year. My 12th grade year. My last year of high school. It is sad to think I will no longer be taking CAIA classes. My big and only adventure this year there is Physics. I was a little apprehensive beforehand but I enjoyed our first class. I am also taking three classes through TCC (two online and one on campus). Other than senior stuff and finishing a couple courses at home that is all my school encompasses. It is extremely light compared to my previous high school years but it leaves room for...

College Planning. I feel so proud yet old when I discuss college. It came so soon. I applied to Ouachita Baptist University a couple of weeks ago and am still in the application process (sending SAT scores, transcripts, etc.). I really believe that is where God has led me and is sending me next year. I still have questions unanswered but God tends to teach me patience through these big life decisions. Maybe I will know what my major is by the time I get there :) I get excited every time I receive a letter in the mail or talk to my admissions counselor. Everything about it is so God. I am thrilled for this next journey.

...and...

Working. I am not exactly sure what that looks like right now. I was offered a nanny job that just didn't work out but am still very interested in a part time nanny job. There are other options that I might could look into but nannying sounds the most exciting to me :)

Well, my life has been full of adventure. I like it. My Father has fulfilled many promises and reached down into my heart and made me alive. He is revealing my heart to me. I am enjoying the journey and truly learning that God knows my heart way better than I do. It is fun for Him to show it to me. He does it all in His perfect timing too. I am grateful for His timing even when I become impatient because in the end I know it will all be worth it. He is worth it all.
