Change

I have never been a big fan of change.
I don't actually adapt well to it (just to Cassandra--I am an S personality on the DISC test).

After graduation, though, I was forced into accepting all that was headed my way.

1. I moved out of the dorms into a house with 3 other girls.
2. I would never be a student at a school I had grown to call my home. Johnson had been my family for 5 years. Honestly, if they hadn't pushed me out the door, I probably would have never left.
3. I started my first full-time job the Monday after the dorms closed.
4. I said goodbye to Nathan knowing that I would see him only once this summer.
5. Living with 3 other girls off campus is a huge adjustment. Moving into a house when there are 3 other girls who already have their routines and goals set since January is a tough thing to adapt to. I felt like I was going to have a rough time being welcomed into their daily lives (if that makes sense).
6. Stress of dealing with money and bills.
7. Becoming my own person, finally. I think this was the one change out of all of them that I welcomed with open arms.

In May it was 2 years for Nathan and me. I adore that man. He makes me very happy.

Come August, I will have been working for 3 months. I really hope they hire me on as a regular employee (because right now I am considered just a "seasonal" employee). I enjoy the people I work with. Most days are better than others. I just want them to see Christ in me.

Nathan will be here in less than a month. I've adapted to him being gone enough that it isn't as painful as it was to be without him. However, to be honest, I still have a hard time being around couples. It just makes me want to be with him, or have him here with me.

I bought a new computer. It should be shipping next week, but who knows. I'm anxious for it to get here, to say the least. I also plan on signing up with an online program to get my international certification in TESOL.

I need to read my Bible more.
I joined a gym yesterday.
I joined a tanning salon yesterday.
There are just some things I need to work on.
