30 Days

I'm really excited now! I think finishing the majority of my portfolio has helped a bit, but also it's sinking in a bit more that I'm actually leaving. It's like an "I can see the light at the end of the tunnel" sort of thing. I still have quite a bit more things to do before I'm completely ready, but that's alright... I am greatly encouraged by the fact that I only have to work for a few more weeks (a couple days ago I was working in the fitting room the whole day and we were having this huge sale and if you have ever been in that position before, you know how I felt). I finally feel at peace with going to Oxford. Before a couple weeks ago, I still didn't know if God wanted me to go or not, which is my fault because I never asked Him in the first place. But over the last couple weeks, He has directed me to certain pieces of His word and to certain people that have led me to believe that He really does want me to go.

Procrastination or Something Else?

I still haven't really started preparing to leave yet and I've only got 50 days left here in the States. I think I'm hesitant to start because it will make it seem more real that I'm leaving. As you might be able to tell, there has been a slight change of emotions on my part. I am beginning to miss my friends from school so much that I would almost rather be going back to ACU for the semester than to Oxford.
