my life is a runaway hamster
I'm not even sure what that analogy means but right now it seems to fit. I am swamped for the first time since moving to Miami. I feel that all aspects of my life: professional, social, physical, spiritual, etc., are coming to a critical apex and somehow I need to filter through all of the things in front of me and make a decision about what to do next.
That's right kids it "Juliet's annual freak out because she doesn't know what she is doing next in her life" time. Yeeeaaaahhhh!!! Brought to you this year by grad school applications, and the impending 25 birthday mark. As well as by a new boyfriend named Rocky.
That's right folks, I dropped the "b" word. I started dating, about a month ago, a nice young man named Rocky Yera. If you're really interested you could google his name and I'm sure something interesting would come up. He is a saxophone player and a member of our church band. I like him and you should too. I'm sure there is more to come...
Other than that I am applying to grad schools for my Master's of Social Work. The lucky winners of my application are.....(drum roll please)......
University of Illinois-Chicago
New York University
Boston University
and either Barry University or Florida International University (both in Miami).
My placement here in Miami at the music school is getting crazier and crazier. But the school is growing and the students we are recieving are very talented and dedicated kids. I am very excited. Now I am searching for funding for our program. If anyone knows of any grants out there for Christian youth music programs than let me know. Thanks!
I got to spend a great week in Illinois recruiting for PCUSA and DOOR (the two programs I am working through this year). I went back to LCC for the week of worldwide witness and even got to lead a workshop with one of my current roomates Erin. We had a great time. I got to see friends and eat First Wok and talk about life. I also got to spend some quality time with the family, and celebrated my dad's b-day. It was a great trip, but I felt like I was squeezing a phenominal amount of people and places in a week and came back encouraged but exhausted.
One last thing before I wrap up this really long blog. I have a friend. Her name is Nadia Turner. She sings in our church band and she is now one of 24 finalists on American Idol. Those of you who know me well realize that I am a big fan of this show and I would really appreciate it if you would subject yourselves (on my behalf) to watch and vote for Nadia on Tuesday night on Fox. I know most of you won't....but she is an amazing singer and is a great Christian role model. Vote for her! (please)
