Crunch Time!
Update on my count down: 17 days!!!
Crunch time crunch time!! Why do I always seem to do this to myself?? As hard as I try, I always seem to leave everything in a big, massive, heap of things I must accomplish in an unrealistic, unheard of amount of time... Really Amaya? Must we do this again?... There is SO much I need to do in the next week and to be honest I probably should have done it all months ago but instead I have filled my days with laughter, joy, food, tea, sleepovers, movies, wonderful friends and long lasting memories. And so to be honest I have few regrets. But now its time, time to face the seemingly endless list of things I must do.. Lord help me I cannot do this on my own.
Time to bit farewell to July and welcome in August. I dedicate my time to you.

As the clock ticks
As the time ticks by, I inch closer and closer to the day of my departure. The count down has officially begun, 23 days till I leave the beauty and comfort of home and venture to the city of dreams, where the buildings touch the sky and the streets are swarming with people on the move, each with a goal and destination.. I find myself frequently fighting down nerves that try to creep up and take over, but i refuse to let too many in at once in fear that I will be unable to fight them at all. The list of preparation seems endless and the time is few but I trust that it will all come together.. Some how!
This year has been one of much unexpected change and growth. I began the year with many plans of my own, which caused me much frustration and disappointment when I realized that they were not going to turn out as planned.. But soon I began to realize that God had much bigger and better plans of his own and I needed to have more faith and trust that his plans and timing are perfect. My prayers began to change from asking God to make my plans happen to asking that God's plans to be my plans. This year has been radical, I honesty feel I could write a whole book on the soverinty of God through this past year! Last year I had $0.00 and this year by the Lord's might I have raised enough for me to attend the school in NYC! Praise the Lord for he is Good! I now realize that though at the time I didnt understand, all that has happened this year has been in preparation for this new chapter. God continues to amaze me with his love and kindness. I'm excited to venture out into this new season and experience more of his faithfulness as his plan unfolds.
