I had an interview for an internship today, so I woke up early and stopped by my friend Charity's house. She lives about 20 minutes away, so I do not get to see her very often, but when I do, it is always a treat. We went to a little hippy coffee shop and we both ordered chai and went out back to the garden to drink it. I have had a really sore throat the past two days, so the warm chai tea felt so good on it.
Then I drove to Pasadena for my interview at the US Center for World Missions. I was not even nervous a little bit....that is, until I took a few wrong turns on the way there and was really close to being late. But as far as being interviewed, I was not really nervous because I love missions and I don't know why I was not nervous, but I just wasn't. I guess for once in my life I just trusted that it was in God's hands. The interview went well and yipee skippe I am officially going to be an intern there in the fall!
Then I went to my sister's house on the way home and said hi, and then went jeans shopping (because I lost mine :( somehow). I decided that I was not in the mood, so I left without trying on any jeans. But here is where it gets good. I had a hard-boiled egg in my car cause I am eating healthier and I brought it along for a snack, but I did not want to leave it in my hot car, so I carried it around the mall in my hands. Haha. I guess I looked funny carrying a hard-boiled egg around the mall with me, but whatever. I am really starting to not care at all what people think about me. It's kinda nice. And then, on my way back to my car, I heard a song on the loudspeakers that I wanted to hear so I stood on the sidewalk and just listened. It was quite nice.
I don't know why I felt like sharing the egg and song stuff, but it was just fun to do whatever and not care who was watching. Like, I was just talking with Jesus all day and enjoying His company and knowing that I am loved by God makes every other thing on the planet seem really insignificant.
Ok, now I am going to start translating 1 Peter! Yay for Greek III.
