distracted, school, job

Today has just been the craziest week. After getting my TONS of stuff unpacked when arriving at school on Sunday, I played Dutch Blitz with Bio Buddy and D-MAY. I literally had 2 plastic tubs of clothes, 3 bags of groceries, 3 bags of stuff, and my music books and laptop. It was insane. A lot of things about this week were insane. I have NEVER been so distracted or scatterbrained before as I have been this week! It is SO BAAAAD!

So school started again on Monday. I have class from 7:50am - chapel, then class from after chapel til 12:20pm, a break for lunch, then class again at 2pm. So basically I am booked. But the BEST thing happened this week! So you know how I was looking for a job last semester? I tried hard. Went to 2 interviews. Applied a BUNCH of places. But no luck.

Then here I go, Tuesday after noon I walk into the facility services office to ask if I might have an application (expecting them to say go apply online). You see, Italy works there and said 3 people quit! So there were openings. It was a definte God thing...I walked in and after waiting for the boss to get done becoming distracted by finding her keys (15 min later) she sat down in front of me and was like, "so when can you start?"

I was so taken aback in pleasure that I told her I could start Thursday and agreed to 15 hours a week. After talking it over with my mom and Italy I decided that was too much and asked to go down to 10 or 12. It took a lot of confusingness and my schedule was changed twice before I even started working 2 days later, but now I am back to 13 hours a week. Bleh. Going to try it though. If it proves to be too much, I shall just have to ask to reschedule again.

I am SO very grateful to my Jesus for giving me this job. Last semester I was so stressed about EVERYTHING, including finding a job. And to see how God had this one waiting for me EXACTLY when I needed it is just an eye opener to remind me it is all in his hands. :) SIGH. If I only woulda had faith that God would bring about what I need at just the right time! Since I work evenings, this job wouldn't have worked at all last semester what with bio study sessions and all. I couldn't have handled it. Now I think it shall be much much better. God truly knows best. Isn't he just the BESTEST EVER IN THE UNIVERSE?!?!?! :D :D :D I love Jesus so much.

Chapel started having praise and worship songs before the speaker starts each day. Its been fun dancing to them with Italy! O Happy Day is a fun song with hand motions. LOL.

About distractions - I was confused over the scheduled work hours, missed a email about a SAC meeting I was supposed to go to, missed meeting TeeHee for Oasis cause I forgot my phone was charging in my room and I went to Bible study  (which was bad since I invited her to go! alfkjaodria) left my keys in my room twice and once in a friend's room...SIGH and a few other things. Just SO SO distracted and scatterbrained. This has GOT to stop. SO bad.

I have being fairly productive during down time between classes and work. I shall have to keep that up if I am going to stay on track this semester. Scared for all the math in chemistry though! Very concerned that I shall not make it. But I'm going to keep pushing on! No matter how hard, I know God shall help me pull through. Cling to Him my friends, and have faith. You might not and probably do not see His plans for you now. You know not what they shall turn out to be in the long run. But He wants good things for you!

Jeremiah 29:11
For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

So do not give up hope or become stressed - place it all in the Lord's hands and have faith that He shall pull your through. You didn't think it was your own doing that you made it through last semester did you? Cause it wasn't. :)

Love you my friends.

I was pushed back and about to fall, but the LORD helped me.
