Greetings from my busy life

It's been a month since I've last blogged.... oops. This semester is absolutely insane though. When did I become an adult? Can someone please explain this to me? Here's what's going on.

1. I am taking the GRE on Monday. Monday people! And yet as I study for this GRE I can't help but think that this has nothing to do with grad school and that it really isn't a good way of showing what kind of a person or student I will be..... But hey, whatevs.

2. I've started applying to grad school, speaking of. I can't help but have the fear that I won't get in. May seem irrational to you, but very real to me. I need to have a plan B, just in case. And yet I have NO idea what that plan should be.

3. Money sucks. Moving on.

4. Jerusalem plans continue to go well. It still doesn't feel real, and I'm guessing it won't even after I am already over there.

5. Oh by the way- I'm in my last real academic semester of my bachelor's degree- so on top of all of the "life" stresses, I also have 5 classes to deal with. Midterms, what? Good news though- I'm pretty sure I aced my midterm this week. One more to go. (for now)

6. This is my last semester in Provo. Pretty much ever. (Never say never I guess, but for all intents and purposes, this is it!) Even though there are quite a few things that I don't love about Provo, it will be very hard to say goodbye. It's always hard to say goodbye to what you are used to.

7. I'm turning 24 soon. Ugh. 24? really? How did this happen?

8. All of my friends are having babies. Kinda weird, but so fun to look at pictures on facebook!

9. Oh and by the way.... I'm going to KENYA. week of Thanksgiving. Boom. More details to follow. I've waited to tell people just because it really doesn't feel real. But it's happening. My friend is going for a charity the week after Thanksgiving, and I am going with her a week before to tour around and experience Kenya. So I just got a bunch of vaccinations. Which made me sick, but I'm over it now and ready to Safari!

There is probably more going on with me, but those are the more pressing/important things.
