I was wishing, and hoping, and thinking, and praying!

Well here is another installment of the life of Mel.  I have had a lot on my plate lately, and a few days I ago I felt extremely overwhelmed.  I did not have a job, I had lots of homework, and a play to direct.  I just felt like everything was crumbling around me.  I just keep wishing and hoping that something would change or get better.

I found myself sitting in my friends house just crying about everything.  That day I had had two interviews for jobs and they had both gone terrible!  I just did not see how anything would be getting better anytime soon.  I was thinking that I might as well just give up and run back to Oklahoma with my tail between my legs.

I started praying and had others praying as well.  That is one thing that I love about this school, people will just stop and pray with you no matter what is happening.  Sometimes they will even pray in other languages(because they are international students), which just makes me so excited for some weird reason.  We were all praying that something would happen that good would come!

I came home from church on Sunday, and felt a little better.  Classes were officially done til January 7th, and all I had left to do was write 3 papers.  I had already started one, and was making good progress on another.  I walked in my front door, set all my stuff down, and then decided to check my phone.  I had apparently missed a call, which I get excited when I have a call, because I do not get them often!  I listened to the voice mail that was left...and it was from Office Max(aka one of the terrible interview), they wanted me to come in to do the background check and the drug test!  Now I am still wishing, and hoping, and thinking, and praying that I get this job!  If I did it would be one of the best options for me right now.

Once I hear anything I will try to post it! For now I just have one more paper to write, and it is not due til tomorrow!  I am just glad that things are starting to possible look positive, and that there is a way to make it through life here another day!
