a little clarity on the journey...

i realized why i haven't been able to keep up with blogging...well, i've been pretty busy, but i was busy when i was living in romania and i made time to blog...the reality is that life is pretty ordinary...i dont really feel like i have anything to write about most of the time...but since i'm about to move to a new place, i think i might take it up again :-)

in case you haven't heard, i'm moving to tennessee. i've recenty been hired by union university. the whole application process was such a blessing...i know that sounds odd, but i had so much peace in the process and was content with whatever the outcome would have been...but i'm very thankful it turned out the way it did and that i've been given this opportunity.


the big move wont take place until the last wk of June, but the time is going so quickly!

let's see, lately i've been working on:

• my last two classes(1 big project, 1 final, and my capstone-35pg paper and presentation)

• my current job- 1 big event, 2 big fundraisers, preparing my team for ethnography in the ME starting the last wk of may

i cant wait for the adventures we are going to have together! love them!

• figuring out logistics to get me to tennessee...

i'm sad to be leaving my family and the community i've been part of during the last 2 years, BUT i'm also excited for what's ahead. i will be working with some cool people and i get to stay in the university world, which i'm very excited about. starting over is kind of scary, but on most days i'm actually more excited than i am scared...i've been a little all over the place with my emotions about leaving again...i'm not AT ALL good at saying good bye.
