"...got Jesus on my necklace..."

Hello everyone!

I have some great news that I would love to share with you!

Before Thanksgiving break I applied for a tutoring position at my university's Writing and Speaking Tutorial Center. There were 15 applicants for only two positions, I was very nervous. Right before break I received an interview; the interview went really well and I felt very good about it. Well, yesterday I received an email offering me a consulting position for next semester! Of course I accepted! I'm very excited and this job will hopefully allow me other opportunities in the future. Thankfully, I will NOT be dealing with math and science! I definitely would not have received a position in that the department. That stuff is just not my strong point! Ha ha! Anyway, I just thought I would share the good news. This job is just another part of my journey! :)

On another note: My dad comes home in seven days! I'm soooo excited and I know the rest of my family (including my daddy) is also! It's been a long forty days and we're all ready for him to be back in the U.S. Unfortunately, I have an exam the day he returns, but I will be done early enough that I can go with my mom to the airport!!! I'M SO EXCITED. Please continue to keep him in your prayers.

Also, it's the end of the semester...which means exams! My first is on Friday and I have two! EWW. Then I have two more the next week. If you will, please keep all college students in your prayers. This is a very stressful time of the year, but it will have its rewards in the end- the degree!
