You remember how I told you about the guy I met on the train, the bearded man from San Deigo? Well, we emailed just a couple of times, but he added me on facebook, so I'd read his posts and stuff. Well, the other day I was thinking I hadn't heard from him in awhile so I went to look on his facebook page, and his brother had posted memorial service information for him. Very sad. Shook me up a bit. And, by a bit, I mean alot. What was the point?! He could've just been a face on the train I would've forgotten about. Now he's a darn good but oh so tragic story in my life.
Moving into the apartment the first of September. Scared shitless. But, appearently God wants me to do this. I keep trying to come up with reasons why not to do this, but, I guess since this last problem He solved, I pretty much have to just say Okay.

Turn of events
I sit here in front of the coffee shop, eating a sand,wich, watching people, listening to passing conversations, and blogging. I'm a good multi-tasker. :-)
My life lately has been one of upheaval. I haven't been living at home. I went on vacation the first day of August, and have slept in my bed once since then. I returned to stay at a friends' house to take care of the place/ huge garden while they're in Montana for 3 weeks. It's been good. Experiencing what living alone will be like. It's awfully quiet and rather boring. But, it's way more conducive to study. The lack of internet is a good thing too, I think. Forcing me not to waste time idling about. There is always stuff to harvest/clean/process, sweeping (which happens when you bring your huge hairy German Shepherd with you), and of course reading and sleeping. :-) Most the time I am working though. I'm trying to learn more about SEO marketing so that I can better help my dad with his business. I hope it can go somewhere soon, because I need this second job. I will not be able to afford living on my own without it. This is imminent. I'm not sure how I feel about it at this point. Kindof excited, it will be a lifestyle change. But at the same time... leadership of the church is changing, not sure of the direction now. How do I know I'll want to stay involved for the year they want me to sign the lease for? How do I know I won't be moving to the OBX next year? Maybe I will.
No more thoughts. Running on 4 hours of sleep, must change this.
It's a beautiful day. I hope you have enjoyed it.
