Two Things in Life Are Always Free : Grace and Jason's Deli Frozen Yogurt

My mom encouraged me to start blogging again.  Part of me is very intrigued with the idea of blogging, and the other part of me is too lazy.  I am going to try to get better at this.  I want to be cool and progressive right? 

Well I have about one month before I kiss sweet ol' America goodbye and say hello to Iceland.  I received my class schedule today for the University of Maastricht.  I am taking International Management, International Business, a European History, and a Communication and Philosophy course.  Reading my schedule made me realize that I am really do this.  I am really leaving everything that I feel comfortable with and everything that I love.  I won't be at Baylor, and I won't be able to live life with some of my closest friends.  As I am growing up, I have learned that there are few things in life that is more important than friendship.  I hope that going to Europe for 3 months is one of them.  

I hope that I learn valuable lessons while I am in the Netherlands.  I hope that I become a better  minded business student.  I really want to look back on this time in my life when I am 26 and think, "Wow I am so glad that I risked it.  I would not be the same woman if I had not experienced what I experienced in Europe."  Many of my students have voiced their concerns about heading off to college for the first time.  I am right there with them!  I completely understand the anxiety of starting a new school. Speaking of my students, they are so great.  I am so blessed to have my job.  Seriously!  God blesses me all the time.  

For example, yesturday; I got like 6 things free for no reason.  People kept on giving me things, and I didn't have to give them money.  It happened at Starbucks, Taco Bell, etc.  I'm not gonna lie, it was pretty BA.  

God is Love,
(stole that from Run)
