Breathing Underwater

You see, there was this book I had to read the very beginning of my Junior year of high school, my first year of public school. It was about an abusive boyfriend and his girlfriend who didn't give up on him. I forget the moral of the story and all (from what I remember it was pathetic, but I pretty accurate view of teenagers today) but the title just came to my mind as I sat here contemplating this post. I feel like I'm breathing underwater... Working full time, going to school full time (online), and trusting in the Lord as He leads me in a different direction than I've been going is about more than I can do.
So first thing. I'm quitting my current job. *Sniff. I loved being a waitress, but the job is just too much. Too far away, too much stress, too much drama. so. I quit. My last day is Friday!! (: 15 hours of work left! I'm going to help grandma and mom around the house until I leave for California so it will be much better and stress"free".
So I decided a bunch of things need to happen when I quit:
1. blog... since I've made it on here about once a month (less than that really! and not at all since Christmastime).
2. catch up on school.
3. journal.
4. spend time with my family.
5. Write SomeOne some letters(:
6. Catch up on my friend's lives... I've missed out too long
7. Get stuff ready for AM and Camp Harmon.
Speaking of Camp Harmon... perhaps that's another topic for another blog, but just for information's sake... I'm headed to central coastal California June, July and August to a (secular) summer camp for people with special needs. I'm absolutely thrilled because it's what I've been wanting to do for the last several years. So I cannot wait. But I'm also getting really scared... It's looking really big. Not to mention I only have one day off a week- Wednesday. I doubt I'll be able to be on my phone other than that. So people better be sending me mail and stuff so I don't die of homesickness! (: actually, it will be interesting to see if I get homesick. I have no idea what it feels like...
With that. I must go... Time for the technology meeting. Back again to enlighten further...
Soli Deo Gloria!
