Another Day...

Today, I thought was very productive. I raised some more support which puts me closer to the day I get move and I cleaned out half of the garage at my parents' house in preparation for a garage sale extravaganza. It's going to be a big one because let me tell you what, I have A LOT of junk. In the past four years I have accumulated half of a garage full of stuff and I can honestly say I have only used about 2% on a regular basis. It's rather sad and wasteful. But I will waste no more and my junk can be transferred on to someone else's garage to sit until they decide to sell it in theirs. Or hopefully the stuff will actually get some use.
Moving to Oklahoma is kind of exciting. Cleaning out and getting rid of everything is very cleansing. I think I'm going to take on a minimalist view of life. A very loose minimalist view of life. I have been living out of about two boxes of stuff for the past three months and I have not been left wanting by any means. Less is more for real this time. Less stuff=less stuff to move/less to clean/less to get in the way=more time for everything else in my life. I'm super stoked.

I just started a Blog?

So, I guess it's official, I'm back in the blogging world. I had a short relationship with xanga and livejournal back at the beginning of college. All the cool kids had them, so I got one too. I deactivated my accounts in my effort to disassociate myself with the technological world one day during my sophomore year. But my thinking for this one was not just to rant on about how life is unfair or how utterly crazy I am. I thought this would be a good way to keep all you people updated on my internship with RUF. So, for that update:
I am in my what I hope to be my final days of support raising. I am amazed at the generosity of people and what God has already provided for me this summer. I have raised over half of the $30,000 that I have to raise for the year, with very little effort on my part. God has been so gracious and I am so thankful what has been provided and what will be provided in the future. I am at the moment $7,000 away from getting to move and $14,000 away from my final goal. $7000 is quite a bit to raise in two weeks. But I have faith that it will work out.
I am so excited about moving to Norman and meeting all the OU peeps. I talked to my roommate yesterday and she is moving into our house basically right now. I am so looking forward to meeting her and getting everything set up. I really am kind of a big fan of moving and starting all over. I think it's kind of fun. So, please pray that my support will come in quickly and I will be off to Oklahoma.
