Driver's License

Well, I'm busy working on getting my driver's license, and I must say that it is one of the most stressful things I've ever tried to do! Doing anything that involves the government in this country is so incredibly inefficient and frustrating! I've wasted so many days just waiting in queues and waiting for them to be on time for things. But it needs to be done...I need my license before I get to the States, cause I don't wanna be a burden to my g-ma. I'm 19 anyway! I could have had my license 3 years ago! Yeah...oh, yes, yes, I'm going back to the States. Jan. 26 is the date and Tulsa, Oklahoma the place. I'm gonna live with my grandma and find a job to earn and save money until university in August/September. No, I'm not sure which one just yet. Stanford didn't accept me...which is disappointing. I mean, yeah it's like one of the best unis in the US...it just would have been great to have known that I could have gone there...but my rest has been in knowing that if I was meant to go there, then I would have been accepted...so obviously God has other plans for me. The other four universities I'm waiting on for replies...I don't expect them until February/March next year. Yeah...I've been going through all of my stuff...sorting out what I'm gonna take to the US...what I'm gonna leave behind...throw away...sell...and the memories come flooding back as I see the objects of my past. My heart aches with it...and I know it's gonna be hard...I don't think I'm going to hold on to very much stuff...my life does not lie in physical objects...and I can't dwell on memories and could-have-beens...I am being given another chance to start over...to begin afresh and build myself up from the ground. I feel the call to grow up...to really become mature in my relationship with God. And it's been a long time in coming...but perfect timing for God. It's just all in His hands...all of it...
