Waiting for the Sun...

Don't want to get too complicated. But it gets so dark that I can't see. Yeah it's a mad mad world. But I'm hoping...I'm tired of living in the shadows. But I'm not giving up on me. Yeah it's a sad sad world. But I'm waiting... *How long, O Lord?...How long must I wrestle with my thoughts and every day have sorrow in my heart? But I TRUST in your unfailing love; my heart rejoices in your salvation. I will sing to the Lord, for he has been good to me.* *Psalm 13*

Oh Spring...

...how I love you. :)

THREE CLASS DAYS, FIVE EXAMS, AND ONE ASSIGNMENT.....and I'm DONE for four whole months!!! :) Oh wow, I'm so excited. I can hardly take it.

Today we signed up for rooms/roommates. I SO wish my roommate (Kendra) was coming back, cuz I would SO be roomies with her again...but she's gettting married, so that's out of the question. But yeah, there was an interesting turn of events as far as my roommate situation goes.

I'm on third floor next year (cuz I'm someone's care partner) and when I went to sign up for a room, the room I wanted (301) was already taken by an upperclassman. I reeeeeally wanted a freshman roommate next year, so I signed up for another room on the OTHER side of the building ("The Dark Side") at the other end of the hall! I was kind of disappointed, but I was like, whatever, as long as I get a freshman roommate.

THEN a care leader who hadn't picked a room yet picked MY room! So I got bumped. Ha ha....I was therefore STUCK living with an upperclassman. I looked at the available roommates and almost panicked!!! I would have had a VERY hard time with most of them, and the other one is my friend, and I really wanted someone I didn't know at all. So then, I looked at "my room" (301) and HURRAH!!! The girl in there is someone that I don't know, but I have seen her around and been like, yeah, she's pretty awesome.

So yeah, I went to talk to her to see if she was ok with me being her roommate, and she was totally gung-ho! The only thing I'm a little nervous about it how MESSY I am. She asked me one question, "ARE YOU CLEAN???" And I was like...uhh....I CAN be. (Heh heh....AGH!!! :) No, really, if she's clean, that will help me be clean. :) And I talked to her current roommate and she said that she's really not that clean. So it will all be OK!!!

So now I'm SO PUMPED...I got the room I wanted (it's right on the corner on the top floor on the SUNNY SIDE!!!! And my future roommate seems awesome. I'm excited. Oh yeah...ha ha....her name is Rachelle Bouthillier. (Ra-shell Boo-thillier) :) Woo hoo.

Anyway. I finished my second-last assignment today. That's really exciting. And I'm not even worried about exams. I don't mind exams, so next week won't be too bad.

TWENTY days til I leave for AFRICA!!!! wow...I'm all mixed up about that one....some days I'm SUPER nervous, and other days I'm like, "Just let me GO NOW!!!" :) Pray for the team's VISAS to go through and such...we haven't heard anything about them. So yeah, your prayers would be greatly appreciated by the whole team.

Ok, I'm off. GO OUTSIDE!!!! It's spring!!! Agh!!! :)
