And it just got better...

My last post was about having a good semester thusfar... It seems like it only getting better lately. A couple of weeks ago I found out that I got into UMC medical school in Jackson! woot!! :) I was/am pretty pumped. Now just to figure out what to do for the next 8 months of my life! Keep reading to see what the options are looking like.

Options:
1. Hang around starkville, get a job, and spend time with some of my favorite people. This could include staying around until may or until school started. If I stuck around until May, it would allow for me to spend some time next summer doing some other stuff. (camp/lagniappe/something else...)
Pros: Make some money (probably not the most), get to hang out a lot, don't have to leave my friends yet.
Cons: I won't be establishing myself in Jackson at all and will be moving there with little time before school starts. Also, this option may limit my ability to save in the meantime.
2. Go somewhere, do something! where? what? I don't know! but somewhere! But seriously, I could go do anything for 8 months, but I just don't know what that something would be.
Pros: Probably form some amazing memories, enjoy a last hurrah before holing away for a few years.
Cons: Probably not make much money, won't get to see people that I know here very much.

3. Co-op somewhere with an engineering company (this could be anywhere!)
Pros: Certainly this would probably pay the most. This would be a great way to make money that I'm not going to be making in medical school.
Cons: This would be the biggest commitment and would also make taking a class in the spring difficult. I may or may not have to move away in order to work this job.

4. Go home, get a job, and start 'establishing' myself before the fall time.
Pros: It is true that I'm eventually going to be living in Jackson. I will eventually have to say goodbye to everyone here in Starkville either in December or in May/August. In one sense I'm delaying the inevitable by staying (somewhat). This would allow me to make a few friends outside of school and reunite with the friends that I already have there.
Cons: I'm going to be in Jackson for a long time. I am not in a big hurry to get back.

Really, I have no idea what is going to happen. I am excited to be almost done with mechanical engineering (it's about time) but I don't know what is going to happen. If you think about it, pray for me. I'd hate to waste this time, but I know that the Lord is going to provide just as He has so faithfully done so far.

The Lord has been so good to me lately. I've been so aware lately of how unworthy of all this I am, but all I can do is be thankful for all the things he's been lavishing onto me.
