thoughtworthy, i suppose.

spring break is for relaxing- especially this spring break. the week has been good- ive made some new friends, gotten ridiculously sunburned, failed miserably at skim boarding, and started a book. and as the week has gone on, my list of things im thinking about has grown. they are including (but not limited to)...

1. do i pick up an accounting degree and have a double major in finance and accounting?

this is probably not going to happen. not only would i have to stay an extra semester for undergrad, id have to go to grad school to actually be a cpa. all for a job i have little to no interest in.

2. year-long internship on a young life property.

some family friends- eddy and eva evans- are down here with us, and eddy is the property manager at young life's windy gap. i told him my major and that i dont know what i want to do with it (erica piped in with "yes you do- you want to manage my ministry"- which is definite truth), and he told me to take a look at the internships. so that's what ive been doing this morning- a great distraction from my investments notes. within this idea are a couple options:

option #1: windy gap. weaverville (basically asheville), NC.  closer to home, 2.5 hours from charlotte, where kiley will be living. i already know the property manager, and i know i love the camp. 

option #2: frontier ranch or crooked creek ranch. both in colorado. farther from home, i wouldnt know a soul going out there. however, this has been a good situation for me in the past. id get to road trip out there (anyone want to come along?) and i'd definitely swing by the grand canyon. im named after the woman who's husband is the director of the western YL, so i kinda have an in there, too. not to mention ive always wanted to live in colorado for a year. the thought of being that far away from friends and family scares me.

beyond location... what would i want to DO? there are several areas- housekeeping, landscaping, guest services, kitchen, etc. honestly, i love the idea of being an office coordinator-type person, but still working the camp.

i love this idea. i have a year to think and pray about it. so that's what im going to be doing.

3. "it's the glory of a man to overlook an offense."  im not good at this. 

4. all my friends are getting boyfriends. while im terribly excited for each new relationship, its getting a little weird. i feel like 85% of my friends went from single to dating in the past 10 months. scary. in the words of john day "i guess we're really growing up, arent we?"

yeah. i guess we are.

5. sdea internship this summer. ready to know if im getting it or not. not knowing and having to be a sitting duck for summer plans is killing me. i like plans. let me plan, dang it.
