A semester begins...

Life is back to "normal" here on campus...there are a few thousand students on campus again, bringing life back to the atmosphere that has been so quiet for the past 4 months. People are getting settled, buying books, taking care of business...and it feels great!

It is so awesome to be a senior...to know that I am almost done...that I have persevered and will soon be a graduate of APU...I am SO excited!

Classes start Wednesday, and I'm not all that excited about that part of being at school. But, I have motivation now to continue to work hard: I need to boost my GPA by .9 in order to graduate with latin honors, and since I want to go to seminary now, I need to have my GPA higher so that I will qualify for more scholarships. :)

Tomorrow I am auditioning for APU's Chamber Singers group...I didn't decide to do so until this weekend, for many reasons...but tomorrow morning I will be auditioning. The big draws for joining the group are these:

1--I miss singing in a group, and this group is the most difficult/elite group on campus...so IF I make it in, it will be an honor, and it will be a challenge--which I need in order to stay motivated to practice and all that jazz.

2--The May tour for this group is to New Zealand and Australia...enough said.

If the Lord wants me to be in this group, I know that the audition will go well. If He has something better for me, I know that He will show me that as well. All I can do is go prepared to the audition, and do my best. :) I am not nervous, because I know that His Will will be done.

The Lord is continually changing me in intense ways, and I am so excited to see where His hand will lead me. Life is definitely busy right now--but I wouldn't have it any other way.
