So huge updates: I GOT A JOB IN AUSTIN. It's a summer internship at a place called PGi or Premiere Global Services. Thanks to an old friend/roommate Weston, he hooked me up. I'm seriously beyond excited for this position. Not only will we have the sweetest working environment but I will be working with some amazing people. I want to learn and I want to be the hardest working intern there so I can earn a full-time position. So I was supposed to work full-time for Water Street but I think I'm just going to do it part-time and then go into real estate full-time eventually. I need to have two sources of income to help offset bills/loans and stuff. I figure everything I make from real estate can go towards my loans. I want to get those effers paid off in at least five years. The rents are getting pretty pissed at me and are on the verge of cutting me off. When I say on the verge I really mean they are cutting me off and making me pay for all of my bills (phone, insurance, car). Honestly, I was pretty pissed off at first but literally God came and soothed my heart and assured me that everything would be fine. I'm going to trust Him. I'm going to trust Him. I'm going to show my mother what faith is and I know that God will bring me through this.
In other news: I went to West U's last ozone of the year on Tuesday. This was probably my last ozone ever. It was sad. I know it wasn't Memorial's Ozone but it was still hard to sit through it knowing that the person who didn't hire me for the same job was sitting literally two feet from me. Memorial had their last ozone tonight. I thought about going but if I did, it would've been a sobfest on my part as well as Brad and Haley's. I'm not going to lie, I'm still not over what happen BUT I'M TRYING MY HARDEST. NOBODY IS PERFECT. My heart for Ozone was/is 100% and so was my commitment. Like I said on twitter, I wish things had played out differently but there was nothing I could do. Rumor is that they haven't hired anyone else for the position. Maybe they're hoping to find someone this summer for it. Whatever the situation, I'm still going to be praying for whoever is in that position as well as those kids cause that's who it's really about. Not me, not the Torn's, not any permanent staff but the kids. It was hard saying goodbye to some of my boys at West U. I'll see Travis and John again but probably not Robbe. He's off to play soccer in Kentucky. Crazy. I told him if he hates it to please transfer to Texas which he said would probably happen. John will be at Texas and Travis will be at Texas State. I'm excited for those kids but also apprehensive for trav and john. Being in Austin, hopefully I'll be able to guide John and steer him away from ridiculousness and drunkenness.
I should be moving to Austin for this job here pretty soon. I think I decided on where I'm going to live but I won't say anything just quite yet. I'm super excited and confident that God will have my back and provide for me spiritually, physically and financially. I'm excited for this next step in my life. Two years ago this week I took a huge chance by going to Ozark the entire year and look what happened, I had an amazing summer. Things will be great!
Prayers:
-The Squier family: Pops passed away last week. He was a great dad! Please be praying for the kids of the Squier family as well as his wife.
-Move to Austin: That God shows up like crazy!
-Pursuit of Christ: These are crazy times in my life and I need to be RUNNING towards the Lord. This week has been tough as some people who are the closest to me in my life have let me down. It's been tough but reassure me Lord that you have a plan and that it's going to work itself out
-My mother: that woman needs prayers straight up, each and everyway
-MEMORIAL OZONE: a new staff member and for kids there
-My Pops: that he gets this new job. He should find out here soon whether or not he gets an interview!
