I went with a bunch of friends to see Switchfoot in concert on friday night. It was lots of fun – they’re great. I have a CD of their’s and liked them and all, but after seeing them in concert, I think I like them more. They kind of get a bad rap from the christian music base, and I’m not sure it’s deserved. I think that they’re pretty cool.

2 weeks left of school!! Yeah!! This next week is dead week – not really sure why they call it that because it seems like it’s going to be crazier than finals week, but whatever. The following week is finals and then graduation on sunday. It’s all going so fast. Time to start packing I suppose. I’ll try to better at updating as we move into these last couple weeks.

time for a post, yeah?

Well, some have recently given me grief for my unfaithful relationship with my blog. So, I figure I better keep them at bay by momentarily wetting their appetite. What a thought huh – my posts wet someone’s appetite – unlikely, but I do realize that from time to time you all are probably interested in what’s going on.
Not too much new to report. I’m nearly a month away from graduating. I just finished my internship yesterday and it’s beginning to feel nice to check things off the list. Pray that I will find the perfect job – even if it’s just a starter job – one that fits my life and who I am and that I can fit in with the company and where they’re going. I have a few promising leads to companies on the west side and feel pretty confident that something will come of at least one of them, but things can still get scary at times. The planner/organizer side of me freaks out at the thought that I’ll be moving in less than 4 weeks and don’t know where I’ll be moving to exactly or if I’ll have a source of income. But sometimes, and I’m realizing this truth now more than ever, my own sense of security can just be an illusion. Really, all our life, whether we feel safe or scared, is not in our hands. There is never point where we’re in control of it all. And it’s times like this where I am exposed to this truth and that I realize that my trust is in One who is trustworthy. Sometimes, I like the illusion of security, but how prideful to think that I’ve got everything planned out and now all that God has to do is get on board. I don’t think that is the way he made us. My life is for him. My accomplishments, things that I am capable of, opportunities ahead are for him, not for me. And so I wait for his plan and trust that he’ll bring it at just the right time.
