summer is soon

i got an internship :)

so i'll be moving to bham for the summer! im excited about this. problem #1: i dont have a place to live. that's pretty much the only problem, though, and i even have a couple options. and the general pluses are...

1. i get to go to brook hills :) this excites me more than you know.

2. i called this lady who moved to bham that used to meet with me when i was in middle and high school, and she's going to meet with me this summer!

3. i work mon-thurs 9-3. that barely even counts as working. 

4. i get to learn the ropes so that i really CAN manage erica's ministry one day!!!

5. lots of fun people are going to be in bham this summer

6. i get a week's vacation to go see whoever i want... all you people going across the country should probably fight for this privilege. jk. (but no. really.)

yay yay yay yay yay!!!!

3 things: (this is easy)

1. i got an internship!

2. panera hazelnut coffee

3. only 3 weeks left until the semester from hell is over. no more studying for 2 (almost 3!) whole months!

i haven't blogged in forever. but i realized i was stalking Erica's page, wishing she would blog again, and i figured it was getting hypocritical.  

ok ive been sitting here for five minutes and can't think of anything to say. oh! i know! birthday.

i turned 21 this past tuesday. at midnight (ok, 11p.m.) erica and stevie showed up at my house with mimosas screaming "it's 12 o'clock somewhere! it's your birthday! mimosas!" i was in bed, but not asleep, and felt really special. the next day i had an accounting test, so i essentially did school from 8am-6pm straight, then went to bham to meet my parents for dinner. i went out with er, stevie, kiley, and david shadix that night... it was fun :) i love them. good birthday.

in other news...

i feel like the Lord's teaching me about being a shepherd. Jesus was the best one, for sure, but he's shown me some good modern day ones too. and i want to be a shepherd(ess). gabrielle always talks about me being a "guardian"- one of those temperament things we're obsessed with. anyway, i think that plays into it. i have a heart for the Church- messed up as we are. i want to see us follow Jesus best :)
