So tonight was the first night of my internship. Okay, not really. But I am so looking forward to it that I couldn't wait any longer and so I went up to meet the kids and just see what was going on. Afterwards, I was so on fire. I was almost in tears on my way home because I am so excited about this summer. I can't even really explain it because it really was a feeling- but I guess it felt kind of like a spiritual high. You know when you get back from church camp and you just feel like on fire for God and ready to take on the world? It was that feeling mixed with this major feeling of responsibility, like this great task had been bestowed upon me and I was the chosen one. Okay, maybe I am exaggerating a little bit, but you get the point. The point is that I can't wait to be with these kids and get to know them and learn about who they are and learn how to teach them. I realized tonight that I really need to have a job where I work with people- probably with kids. I just thrive on it. I thrive on going to a place where there's all these people who know who you are and know your story and you know them and know their story. And now I have all these kids that are starving for attention and I get to be the one that for three solid months gives them as much attention as they can handle. Its going to be incredible.
It feels like nothing's happened unless I've shared it with you...
Then I started driving around and I really wanted to talk to someone.
And I started praying and then it all kind of hit me. And I drove around and I watched all these streets go by
