you know how you get to a new stage in life and you have to learn how to make the transition?
but sometimes it takes you a long time to get used to the new stage
and then suddenly your newly acquired comfort zone is ripped out from beneath your feet. you write the last exam for this undergrad degree, and you think about the two remaining assignments this week and how they don't compare to the beautiful sunshine... you think about next week's blisters, and the alarm clock, and the permadirt settling in... you think about next year and the fact that nothing is confirmed yet and it's all up in the air... you think about the incredible way that structure is falling down everywhere and that you are responsible for building up a new structure to fit this new stage in life.

HOPEfully that describes me in December! And yes, it's crazy and scary...I hope you get everything figured out eventually Justine. And while your school/work world is falling apart and that comfort zone is fast fading, your family and friends world is still there as strong as ever. Don't forget! And so is God.
Yus! Almost done, my dear! Hang in there for the last few days!
