THE PAST WEEK'S THOUGHTS

Let me explain, that I use this blog to rant, and rave about different things, my worries, my problems, my happiness, my loves, my loses, and so on and so on. If you hate that kind of stuff, and well don't really care, then don't read this post, because I just need to get some of my fears out of my head. You better believe that this is about moving, and what life is going to be like after July. You can roll your eyes and say get over it, it will all work out, but I am scared, and I am not going to pretend. 
I am scared to graduate, and actually get a job in my field
Where will I get our clothes dry cleaned?
What if someone asks me about my church, and I don't have a good enough answer?
What do I say when someone bashes the Mormon church? 
Why did I chop off all my hair, when I am going to have to wear it curly in the humidity? 
How often am I going to resent my family for getting together without me?
Will I cry a lot? 
We think that it might be time for kids, but can I do it without my mom there all of the time? 
People say expect to be approached to go into  crack houses in Waco, What the? Really? 
What if I get lost, I can;t just pull over and ask strangers, they might shoot me
How many times will I hear the Tornado sirens go off? 
Will I get eaten by spiders? 

Pretty sure I can't stop thinking about all these things, and it freaks me out. Pretty sure people are sick of me asking these questions, but I don't care. Pretty sure I am completely stoked to move, but petrified of the thought of what the answers  to these questions.
Pretty sure I question if I am strong enough, I guess I have to be.

The Verdict is....

Well, here we are. The decision has been made...... Drum roll please............................
Ok people, we are moving to Waco Texas, yep I am going to become a Texan! Now, I am super excited, but also super scared. Just ask my friends Samantha and Quincy. I was with them when Dan told me that Waco has offered him a way better deal then expected, and even the advisor at Colorado, told him that this was a great offer and that he should take it. So the next step is finding a place to live, and heading on our way. We plan on going down there mid May to get a look at the town, and find a home for the next two years. Ok after writing this, I just started freaking out. Wow, I am moving out of the western states and actually going somewhere far, TEXAS! HOLY CRAP!

some facts

I looked at my blog today and realized that it has almost been two weeks since my last post. and while Dan and I are still debating, and praying so hard my knees hurt, I needed something to keep my mind off the whole "were are we going thing". i bet you just thought well Lesli what about school? shouldn't that keep you busy. well when you are graduating, you kind of just forget school, and really lose interest, like right now, instead of studying my case study due Friday, i am writing on my blog, Wow I really have my priorities straight, ha ha!
