rain, rain, go away!

this semester is already overwhelming. i have six classes and i have a consistent amount of homework in everyone one of them, already. i know, i know, i need to get used to it right? well i don't want to:) it was POURING rain today. it's days like these where i truly miss high school; the days where i could switch classes INSIDE a building. the days where I didn't have to change clothes 1231412 times a day because i continually got wet. it is also days like these where i do not see the point in showering before class. call me gross, but its true, and you know you think the same thing:) don't get me wrong, i love to shower and be clean, but showering for me is a long process and if i am going to get wet, causing my hair to mess up, why waste my precious time. i have struggled with migraines for four years and weather fronts trigger my head, not fun.
embarrassing moment of the day...i was told i couldn't be in a class. after all the struggles with my schedule, i am still attempting to get in a university studies course. the course is "american health care system" and i can't find an open seat. the professor was very sweet and she gave me the option to come to class and see if any of her students didn't show up. when i got to class i let her know i was there and she told me we could talk after class. i didn't expect her to bring it up when she was calling role. and i for sure didn't expect her to tell me, "everyone showed up, better luck next time." she then told me i could leave, AFTER she had started class. i had to pack all of my stuff up and walk out. i do NOT get embarrassed, but i definitely was feeling it today. awesome.
i have been blessed with the opportunity to house-sit for over a MONTH! i am excited, but very nervous. i will be in cape, but i am sure i will pee my pants everytime i hear a noise. i LOVE my alone time, but when it gets dark outside, someone better be there beside me! so we will see how long i last before i am driving home in the middle of the night.
my mom told me today that there is a trip to africa at the end of july, meaning i might be going sooner than later. this is SO exciting but scary at the same time. i would love to go this summer, but i do not have anywhere close to the money i need saved. god is so faithful and he is my provider, so if he calls me on this trip i know he will provide, but it will be taking a major leap of faith. if you think about it, say a prayer for me!
if anyone is up for a great new worship song, check out kari jobe's "revelation song." i am almost brought to tears every time i listen to this song, which is quite often. it makes me want to dance! it is very moving. i encourage everyone to listen to it! FANTASTIC!
i will leave on this note, EVERYONE going into college, or already there, MUST invest in an adorable umbrella, rainboots, and raincoat. it is imperative for days like today! have a fantastic week! remember that "God has no interest being a wekend getaway or a summer cottage. don't use God as a vacation. He wants you under His roof now and always. He wants to be your mailing address, your point of reference. He wants to be your home." -Max Lucado
