Diving Board

Graduation is coming up in about 2 weeks. I'm greatly overjoyed at the fact that I have worked this hard and it's all coming to a close. To be honest, although I am very excited for the next phase of my life, I am scared...and the only thing that keeps me from being paralyzed with the fear of the unknown is the fact that I am one of God's children. He has great plans for me, I know this. I think I am just nervous because it feels like it came way too fast. Sure, I thought this day would never come and behold here it is...Good things will come and so will challenges. I feel as if I'm 10 again and I'm standing there on the diving board...scared of jumping off but knowing that I would feel accomplished and brave afterwards. So this is me...jumping off that diving board.

So as far as my plan goes, I am planning to move overseas by the fall. I applied for a job teaching English overseas and I am quite excited about it. Having to do the paperwork and trying to get things situated has been mind blowing...Wow, I'm actually going to do this. By August, I could very well be on a plane heading to teach in another country.So please keep me in your prayers as I venture out into the real world via overseas :). Look out world, here I come!
