Just a quicky, but I feel like God is building my relationship with people I would have never thought I'ld be close with. It's interesting cause just a couple of weeks ago, nothing existed and matter of fact, I would never have though something WOULD. Frankly because of my pride and judgment/ disapproval. Anyway, somehow something formed, and I'm just like God, what is it you want me to do with this??? Cause I know this relationship was created for a purpose. And I don't want to miss my cue in your plan, so what's up???
Just thought I'ld share.

Blessings
God just continues to surprise me and like my mom says "embarrass me with blessings!" It's amazing, but I just find myself feeling speechless. Take for example today. I have no idea how this happened except for the fact that it was the Big Man doing it. So this school year I received this Language fellowship which was just AWESOME cause it was like heeeyyy money in the bank! LOL. Well, it hadn't dawned on me until a week before the deadline that I could apply again next year. By then I was thinking ok, I just won't apply for next year, maybe I'll apply for the summer. After hours searching for a way to combine both the summer fellowship (if I got it) and a summer internship or classes, I realized, doing both was not feasible due to overlapping dates. Womps. So I kinda resigned, or was slowly resigning to doing neither. That is, till today...at 1:47pm actually, when I received an email from my professor asking if and why I wasn't applying for the fellowship again next year. Mind you the application is due TODAY. So, here's my response:
Step 1: Send email 1 back- Some excuse
Step 2: Realize that God might be using the prof to speak to me
Step 3: Send email 2- Wait can you write me a recommendation?!!?
Step 4: Send email 3- Here's my resume etc. I know it's last minute!
Step 5: Fill out app
Step 6: Contact another professor I'm close with, Praying and hoping, the prof can do this last minute
Step 7: Ugghhhh 1 page essay
Well I would just like to say that less than two hours later, my apps have been turned in, including BOTH letters of recommendation, and other materials. How did that happen?? God I tell you. I'm still in shock. Here I was praying, my professors get the email before midnight and have some energy to write something...but BAM! TWO HOURS.....whaaattt???!!! unheard off.
Can I just brag right now?? I'm a blessed child. That's all I can say.
*Cheesing!*
