Friendly Reminders

So I haven't updated this blog in awhile to say the least....life has been beyond busy for me. Extracurricular and academics completely took over my life especially for the past few weeks. I can't say that I did an amazing job balancing senioritis and I def wish my grades were higher but I GRADUATED. I also got into law school, a few to be exact but my first choice and the school I will be attending is Northeastern. I am so excited except for worrying about housing and financing a legal education. I have been really stressed and worried about this but reading my last blog post really encourages me.
It reminded me of how incredibly blessed I am and that despite my circumstances things always work out. So I am no longer worried but know that everything will work out, and am excited to prepare for Boston!

Time to Play the Waiting Game

So I received my LSAT score today...*sigh*...I actually did better in the sections that I didn't study for. The section that everyone said was the hardest--I aced! Ironically the section I expected to do best in I bombed. Welp but it's over. I debated about taking the test again, but I honestly don't want to. After talking to my support team I realized that there really as no need to do so. I am confident in my application and that God will lead me where I am supposed to be.

I have banned myself from all things law school related because they only cause doubt and I really have no time for that. My focus right now is finishing my senior year strong, attaining my degree, and living that life I was created to live.
If you falter in times of trouble, how small is your strength!
Proverbs 24:10

I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there' and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.
Matthew 17:20

So letting and trusting and believing....

This may sound too optimistic for some but honestly I take solace in my faith. My entire life thus far has been exceedingly blessed. There are many things that I have accomplished but for the grace of God and I know law school will be no different. So I am waiting on a final recommendation but I am ready to submit all of my applications. I will keep you posted on my status and hopefully by my birthday I will have solidified my choice for law school! I hope whatever your dreams and goals may be that you follow them with Faith. Faith is so incredible and no matter what with God you will end up in life where you are supposed to be.

HAPPY NEW YEAR

Bonne Année!!!! Glückliches neues Jahr!!! no matter what language you speak Happy New Year!!! I hope today has been wonderful for you. I enjoy New Year celebrations and while I don't make resolutions, I support anyone who does. I am so excited for 2011 because I know so many wonderful things will happen this year. In less than six months, Lord willing I will be the first person in my family with a degree and pursuing a graduate school degree. Where? I'm not sure yet but I'm not freaking out about it because I know the Lord will lead me where I need to go. As the days of my final undergraduate Winter Break come to an end I am excited and nervous to start my LAST undergraduate semester at UNC. I am more anxious as I stand at the precipice of childhood and adulthood. Despite being 21 I have yet to consider myself an adult, but as the reality that I will soon have a degree and may be leaving behind NC for law school approaches I realize that I am transitioning into adulthood. It's a scary thought but with all the lessons I've learned from my parents, from college, and various experiences throughout my lifetime I realize that I'M READY!!!
I am blessed to see another year, great faith, great friends, and endless possibilities. So welcome 2011 and adulthood....I'M READY!!! So to myself, all my friends, and even someone that stumbles upon this....I speak faith health, prosperity, abundance in this new year. Continually let your light shine.
