Postgrad...

The name of this post reminds me that I never got around to seeing that movie, which is kind of sad, because I fully intended to. Mainly because I feel some sort of loyalty to Gilmore Girls actors. Same reason I started watching Parenthood.

Anyway...

I am officially a college graduate. Just call me Erin Wert, BSN. Hopefully in a few weeks I can also add ,RN. to that. Most popular question for everyone to ask me right now? "When are you taking the NCLEX?" Least favorite thing to answer and then try to explain? "I don't know yet. I have to wait for my application to be processed by the TN board of nursing, and for them to give the okay to Pearson Vue to give me my ATT (authorization to test) which will then give me the okay to sign up for a day/time to take it.

Needless to say, I am anxious to be able to schedule this, and move on. And I should probably be doing more study questions than I've done so far. But I did take a review course. And I even did one chapter of questions on my own after that. And I will do more... tomorrow.

Just like I will go through my stuff... tomorrow. This is probably a bad theme in my life, and eventually, tomorrow will have to be today. The moral of this story? Erin has too much stuff.

Erin also has a new iPhone, and she's having fun playing with it. If you have any good app suggestions, let me know! I probably becoming addicted. Such is life.

I'm starting to feel the time crunch until July 12th. I mean, before graduation, it seemed like a decent while away, and granted, there are still 6 good weeks before then... that's still only 6 weeks! 2 of those I'm spending house sitting, and I want to be in Nashville before then, so that's really less time... yeah... its going to go by fast.

I would like to note that God has provided so much as I get ready to go to Nashville- so many different contacts and such, and it's just amazing to me. And I hope that I will continue to remember this as I actually start to make the move and live the life. I know next year is going to be full of so many changes and transitions, and that it's not going to be easy, but I hope I will remember that God is in control, and that I don't need to worry, but to trust his goodness and faithfulness.

I am definitely entering a season where I feel a loss of control and an uncertainty about the future. My sinful nature would tell me to freak out, worry, obsess, etc. but the Spirit tells me to breathe, take peace, rest in God's word and faithfulness, trust Him, and to enjoy the blessings God has given me. Which, I will tell you, have been given in an overwhelming abundance.
