I am very grateful for my friends and family who have stood by me, encouraged me, and even dealt with some frustration from me. I could not have gotten through this summer without them and I appreciate every single one of them. I know they are all going back to school and back to teaching and I can't wait to hear their stories and see where God takes them this new school year.
I've done a lot of reading and have even started running...yes, shocking, I know. A friend of mine is really into 5k's and I have always wanted to try to run one (even though I'm not a huge running fan). I have started training with the "Couch to 5k" app and day 2 wasn't as bad as day 1...looking forward to trying day 3 tomorrow. I have until October 27th to get ready and a few friends are joining me on this :)
I'm looking forward to September since I will be starting a little traveling here and there while I look for a job and my class starts at Montclair. I'm looking forward to my class this Fall since it's the same professor I had this past summer. September 8th Needmore will be performing at the Dayton Downtown Revival Music Fest. I'm looking forward to seeing them perform at a larger venue and seeing my brother again. It's been a long time since I last saw him and I get to travel with my brother's best friend who is like a brother to me :) We'll be traveling and meeting up with my parents in Chicago before all 4 of us head into Dayton :) I can't wait :)
So, as I start this new adventure...I decided to go for a change...a HUGE change. I have a new hair color and haircut :) I'm shocked at how dark I really decided to go, but I wanted something different and new. What do you think?
In case you can't tell...it's red
In direct sunlight :)
