Remember that one time I said I go with my gut? Yeah, carpe diem seems to be the driving factor behind many of the things that I do.
I was planning on moving to France in January. I was really excited, I looked into a lot of costs and I dug out my old passport. At the time, I really felt good about it because it was time that I did something. Living at home, working at Starbucks was getting monotonous and I needed a change of scene, a change of people. France sounded great. France still sounds great.
I'm not where I was in August when I made that decision. I feel as though I've undergone an internal change between then and now, understanding more who I am, who I want to be, and what direction I'm heading. I know now that I'm a better student, more prepared for life at BYU-Idaho. I've made some connections out here in Idaho with people who work at the local bakers and I feel strongly that I'm going to find a job for the winter.
Yep, I'm staying in Idaho. I've signed a contract, its a done deal. I feel kind of bad for backing out of the France plan, but financially it wasnt going to work out. It costs a lot of money to travel and live overseas. Besides, living here in Idaho makes sense. I'm doing well in school, I have solid friends, and its hard to beat the spirit in this town. I feel uplifted by the people that surround me and I feel happy.
I'm happier than I've been in a long time. Things are turning around and working out for me. It's about time, life. Let's keep things going this way.
