You're a beaver, aren't you?

When taking the Personality Zoo quiz during Staff Training, I found out I was a beaver.  The ironic part about this is that my nickname in 7th grade started out at Beaver.  It has since been shortened to Beav and I still carry it around with me.  Anyway, being the beaver that I am, I plan...too much.  On my calendar, I have every weekend until the end of March penciled in.  Some things are in pen and I don't plan on changing them (George Strait concert...).

Well, there is a point to this blog, I promise.  Last week was interesting to say the least.  I had my weekend plans change for the third time, I applied for student teaching and I began to stress about summer after a grad check was done.  I'm dropping a class this semester due to my planning and I found out that I need to take a class I hadn't planned on.  Thus, if I want to be done in December like I've been planning on since last fall, I will need to take at least three summer classes and possibly four.  This cramps my style.  I was planning on only taking two classes and heading to camp.  I have no idea what is going to happen now.

I also sent in my application for student teaching.  I am that much closer to growing up.  The next step is to fill out my placement requests.  I plan on being able to move back home and student teach somewhere close.  I have Pekin as my number one choice and Sigourney as my third.  I'm still debating a second.  Naturally, SE Iowa wouldn't have a center.  The closest school is Williamsburg in the Cedar Rapids center.  This will have to be my first option, but not really.  It's complicated, believe me.  I at least like to think I know what I'm doing when it comes to filling out the online form!

I've been praying about it a lot lately, and think about it way too much.  Tonight when I got back from my shower, I listened to Life 101.9.  A couple of songs in and I was suddenly listening to Storyside:B.  The song, Be Still.  Literally, they were singing my life.

Proverbs 19:21

Many are the plans in a man's heart, but it is the LORD's purpose that prevails.

God always sends me one of His promises just when I need it.  I'll sleep easy tonight!
