still blown away

two days, two amazing things happen. sunday, i got a message from my friend meg who lives in san angelo. she's an old fca camp friend, and i had messaged her to ask if she had any christian friends who were looking for a roommate, or just suggestions of places to live. she wrote back and said "crazy enough, we actually have an empty room in my house right now and we'd love for you to come live with us." so after some phone tag we finally talked last night and got everything figured out. she was like "i know pt school is intense, i'm here to make your life easier." plus she has connections where if i decide i want to keep lifeguarding, we should be able to make that happen pretty easily. SUCH A BLESSING!

also yesterday, i got a letter from ASU telling me they are awarding me what is called a category A academic excellence graduate scholarship. translation: my tuition/fees are paid for, except maybe in the semesters where we take 19 or 20 hours. HUGE BLESSING #2!

i'm just completely overwhelmed and blown away by the Lord's favor and blessing in this whole grad school thing... it's just more confirmation to add on, and honestly it's coming on the heels of a rough few months and so it is really helpful to me. i'm so excited for the summer, both for fca camp and to get started with school. i've even ordered most of my books already (i know, nerd) cause i'm so pumped.

smile: kansas beat memphis. props for the big 12.
extra smile: (there are no frowns today!) can i just say once again how brilliant pat summitt was for having candace parker bring the ball the length of the court with 7 seconds left against LSU, then dish to any of 3 other wide open lady vols after the whole LSU team went to guard candace. absolute genius.
