Graduating

I just realized that in seven days i will no longer be a college student! On one hand it is so exciting to be done with school and on the other it is sad to think that from here on out I have to educate myself instead of having a teacher to be there guiding my thought process. I tried to teach myself to play the guitar one time and yeah... I sold my guitar if that tells you anything. It is crazy to think but I have been in school for 17 years now and it is finally coming to an end. I guess there is always the chance that I will go to law school... but that is far down the road.

I always thought that if I planned my life out perfectly that everything would fall right into place and my plan would take me right where I want to go. BOY was I WRONG. You know that country song that says "If you want to hear God laugh tell him your plans" well that is the truth! Here was my plan... go to BYUI for one more semester and then either transfer back to UNC or go to BYU-Hawaii. Either way it was to finish at another school, any other school, than BYUI. After that it was law school and while at law school I would meet a charming lawyer who would marry me and I would enjoy a life of luxury and ease with lots of children, lots and lots of children. Little did I know that the Lord has his own plans for me and they didn't include any other school except BYUI nor did it include waiting until law school to get married. I must say though I sure have a great catch as a husband, even if he isn't a lawyer and doesn't like talking to me for too long about all the political "stuff." He is still very charming (as most of you know) and he always keeps me laughing! Most of you who know me also know that we don't have any children yet, YET being the key word. We have been trying and trying and I have spent many hours praying to Heavenly Father about it but the longer I wait the more love I have for children and the thought of being a mother. I know Heavenly Father will make it happen when it is supposed to. Another country song says that The lord gives us mountains, so we can learn how to climb and that is exactly what I am doing, learning.

So with Graduation only seven days away my excitement grows! I'll keep you posted on how it goes :)
