Love

As I was being kissed last week (not sure what day), running my fingers through this guys hair, and it popped into my head.  And as much as I want to deny it, I'm afraid it'll stick.  We've been dating for three weeks on Wednesday.  It's too soon.
I met his son tonight.  He's too cute.  Super polite and very sweet.  He caught us kissing and said no, haha.

I really don't know how I feel about this.  It's going fast, but slow at the same time.  I love it and I hate it.  And I don't know what to do..

New things.

So I'm officially "seeing someone."  I'm not sure how I feel about that.  It's a new and different thing.  And unlike my recent dating habits, this is actually a good man.

Something feels different.  I hope it is.

We've been on four dates.  It's always a good sign when a man takes you to the theatre. :)  And watches sappy love movies. And is an incredible kisser... Did I just write that?  Well, he is. :)

I'm happy.  My PC app is nearly done.  School is going great.  I'm going to Mexico in three weeks.  I have a pretty good job (or two).  And I have a great kisser to date! :) I also have a new niece (most precious human being ever!!) and a new niece dog!  This has been an absolutely amazing week.

I never want this to end! <3

Peace Corps

I'm in the middle of writing my essays.  I've printed my transcripts.  And I've ordered my divorce decree.

I'm scared to death.

This application, for one thing, is R-I-D-I-CU-L-O-U-S.  It's scary by itself.  Then comes the part where they ask how I will integrate and what can I bring to the PC.

What can I bring to the Peace Corps that it doesn't already have??  I'm nothing special.  I just want to serve.  And help.  And love those people.

How do I make my application stand out when I know I'm nothing they haven't seen before?

Ugh.

Broken

I was driving home from a Mexico meeting, blasting my little Christian mix on my iPod.

I don't know what happened or what changed.  I just started sobbing.  The combination of thinking of those precious children, listening to how much God loves me, and finally realizing that there's a plan for me.

Whether it's at the City, in the Peace Corps, or here where I am.  There is a plan.
