Patience is a virtue...

God is teaching me some lessons right now in my life about patience, that's for sure. Waiting for Mr. Everyday to finish law school and waiting to see if I got accepted into a program for this coming fall semester are by far the two that are really testing me. So far, I got a "Needs Improvement" on waiting for law school, but I've definitely been improving ever since. Like, my mindset has totally changed. It's amazing. I don't think I've ever had such a dramatic change like this. So I'm now on my road to an "Outstanding" with that situation. Yes, I did just use an elementary grading scale to describe my level of patience, and if you don't like it you can get a check minus (that's some middle school grading for ya).
Jeez, this kid sucked in math. This is def not my report card from ANY grade.

 
If I had to grade myself on how patient I'm being with my grad school acceptance results, it'd have to be the same grade that kid got in math for most of the year. What is a C? Like a below average? I forget. Either way, I'm sucking at being patient with them. But then again, it's not all my fault. They said they'd make their decision by March 15th and to expect to hear something after that. Am I really supposed to wait until July to make plans to go to school for the 2 years. I hope not. I seriously pray I hear something by the end of April because if I get one more notice about my loans that need to get paid off I'm going to explode.
Yeah, like that.
I have a lot to plan for to get ready for school. Like, how am I going to pay for my place. Do I apply for scholarships now? How will I pay for books? I have some people who don't think I can do all of this on my own, but I know I can and I will prove them wrong. I just need to get the OK, from the school to get things started. And I promise that when I do find out I will celebrate like no other! Maybe a trip to NY? Who knows? But really, who wouldn't accept me into their program. I'm smart, dependable, dedicated, adaptable, a leader, willing to learn, a hard worker and so much more! I just need the opportunity to show what I can do. It would be awesome to get the next chapter of my life started, but I guess just like with everything else, God will make it happen when He feels I'm ready. And I'm ok with that.
