My Next Step Forward…

Someone asked me the other day what sucks the most about being 27 and living at home with your parents?

I paused and thought…

Then I b*tch slapped him and walked away.

Pretty much what sucks the most about being 27 and living in your parents home, is being 27 and living in your parents home.

Though things in recent days have been looking up…

I’ve been pretty open in regards to where i’m at, where i’ve been, and my struggle in not being sure of where i’m heading…

I remember saying to my Dad when I left the church, that I needed a year at the very least to process and work through my doubts, questions, and hurt that accumulated over the years. And just work in a job that I won’t have to take home with me…

And well, it’s been a year…

I did the camp thing for the summer. Spoke around California for a short stint, with my good friend Andrew (which was awesome). Was jobless for way too long, which is when I started this blog. Then I got a job waiting tables. And landed my current job at Apple.

I mean I want to say that “Oh, I’ve learned so much, and grown immensely in the past 9 months…” but to be honest it doesn’t feel that way, the last year FLEW by. It was almost as if I blinked and well, here I am.

Though, I have been getting restless, so I applied to grad school on a whim… Kinda.

Anyone who’s known me for the past few years has known that grad school has been the last thing on my mind, and that it’d take a movement of GOD to get me to go back to school…

Apparently a movement of God happened, cause I’m going.

I’m pretty stoked. Nervous. Excited. Scared. Anxious, about heading back to school, but overall at peace about it…

But here it goes, yet another step forward in my journey…
