countdown

So I survived Thanksgiving with only a few tears. I ended up going with a friend to her family's house in New Hampshire. I had a good time, but it just wasn't home. It is funny how being away from a certain place for a long period of time really makes you appreciate it. I am counting down the days until I get to see good old California again.
Some updates in my life: I got the RA position at school, so that means a saving of $8,000 a year! I am excited about the new job, but I am also nervous. I know that this is going to be a growing period for me and I am excited to see what God is going to do with it. I just can't picture myself being super strict so it will be interesting to see how God prepares me for that. This is the last week of classes before finals so I have been extra busy and stressed out and looking forward to a nice four week break. Oh I have been super fortunate and have managed to not see snow yet!
Life in New York is awesome; I have made some really good friends and have learned a lot about myself, but I am definilty ready for a dose of home. So on that note... the countdown is on!! 14 days until i fly home!
