and tomorrow is here.

School starts today. 
And since graduating highschool, this will be the third city I've lived in. It's also the third school I've attended, and the third time I'll be a new student. 


They say the third time's a charm.

good morning, Edmonton

Date: September 4, 2010
Location: Starbucks, Edmonton
Drink: Tazo Green Tea w/peach
Company: my awesome Quest friends Melissa & Jackie!

I'm finally here! I've been nervous, worried, stressed, and so excited about moving here, but now that I'm here, I can honestly say that I am already loving it. My roommate (&best friend!) Jenna, just moved in a couple days ago and it has been WONDERFUL. I'm so glad I have such an awesome friend living with me. Things certainly haven't been that easy moving in here and there's been a lot of stress from trying to figure our issues with power, leading to long, frustrating phone calls with Epcor and now being frustrated with the ridiculous bill they sent even though they were the ones who made the mistakes! But I'm trusting that God will smooth things over and I'm praying that it will happen soon. 
This year marks a definite new chapter in my life. A new school, another new city, and my first year truly on my own, not in a residence, and with my own apartment!
Nervewracking?  
   Yes. 
Exciting? 
   Definitely. 
And to add to my excitement, this will be the LAST DAY that Caleb and I will be doing long distance. Praise God! I am amazed at how God has led us this far and I know I say this in almost every post, but I feel soooo blessed to have Caleb in my life. I can't wait until he arrives in Edmonton today. My life is so full.
