Aye Aye Captain

Well this school year I have discovered my love for Marshmallow Mateys cereal. I have never really been fond of Marshmallow Mateys or Lucky Charms, but this year I can't live with out them! I used to eat these cereals by first eating all the non-marshmallow pieces thus saving all the marshmallows for the end. Save the best for last eh? But This is the first year that I have actually eaten the mallows and the non-mallows together. What a difference! It makes the whole cereal eating experience pure bliss!

I have also concluded that a lot I write here I purposely don't include in my hand written journal. For the various reasons: 1. Somethings I don't want my children to see and think that I am just these big nerd, um mom you spent time writing about cereal? 2. It's too cheesy to write about unless you are just doing nothing while your roommate sleeps. Maybe others, but that's the gist.

So the answer to my prayers happened this Thursday!! I got a call for my apartment contract that I am selling!! I have been so worried about it and really praying that everything would work out. I always had the feeling that everything would fall into place. So Wednesday I put up a cute little 3X5 card (made by the best roomie) in the Wilk advertising my contract. Then Thursday I got a call from a girl and she said that she wanted it and will sign a contract without even seeing it! WOW! Well yesterday she came to meet Camille and Lauren (for their approval) and see the apartment and she signed right there! It was such a blessing. Everything leading to Australia has really been falling into place, I got a approved for a 12 month visa, I am getting credit for a class while over there, my scholarship is covering that class, and my apartment contract is sold! Now I just need the good graces from my parents and get on a plane! Gosh it gives me butterflies just thinking about going! Well long post filled with fluff.
