It is exciting to know that I am destined for His glory! Today, I admit to you that I am HAPPY. I am excited to be starting this new chapter of my adventure. I am excited to discover that I am more prepared for this than what first believed. I have cut the mass-facebook-attention sucker for about one month, and now I feel that again, I am not constantly in the spotlight. It is a relief to know that again I can be the dork in the background with no pretenses.

Today was my first day of class. Ironically, I was the only boy (if you haven't noticed this common pattern in my life, you frankly just don't know me!). A girl expressed an opinion that I disagreed with, and after she spoke, I proposed a makeshift option. The class agreed with me (I wasn't seeing this as a competition!!), and for the rest of the class, I got THE GLARE. lol, sad day! Today was actually the first classroom class I've taken (once I participated in a hybrid class where students show up for labs).

This week, I also signed up for my new apartment (following plan: WIN!)! I have never been so excited to really enjoy myself....you see, I furniture madness is next! =) I just want to have fun! Goodness, I can't wait. I am already getting in the Christmas music mood, and I am SO EXCITED to decorate for Christmas....for me, the nostalgia will make this work! The complex also has a gas grill in the middle picnic area. SO EXCITED to throw fall parties! =)

Now understanding the intensity of the classes will be tolerable, I want to either pick up Dollar Tree or put in some hours at the Open Door Mission....or both! I am enjoying the last few REALLY nice days of summer/fall, and that will be my next focus.

The Loftus Family is in deep wedding plans. Honestly, I feel a bit shafted for not being included in Erin's wedding. Seriously, everyone else is. Regardless, the day is not about me and whatever Erin is going for, I am going for! I do well at not making my feelings known, and thus, we will party hardy! I have been losing weight for this big event! HOW exciting! The first member of the family is being married off.......gosh! Super excited that I have to wear something nice after the days of dieting.

To finish September off right, I will be going skydiving (hopefully!)! Tony from EVS is going with a dog-loving-church group. ....yeah, pretty far out! Nonetheless, I'm totally in....$60 price! Gosh, I am excited! Depending on how crunched for time, I may see if I could go twice!! =D

Well, this is all the happenings here! Super exciting to see what's next! lol I'll keep you posted!
