Well... July has come to an end. A year ago I was flying back to Africa. I've spent some time reflecting on that experience lately because I feel that it is important. Now, I'm finishing school. Yes, I am finally done school on Thursday!!!!
I never thought that I would go to post secondary school let alone graduate from it! So, it wasn't very long, but I walk off with new perspectives in life, incredible and almost unbelievable amounts of information, a new appreciation for the hospitality industry, and of course, a diploma. Half way to a degree. At this point in time I have no desire to get my degree, but maybe one day I will go back to finish it off.
Heading into August will be busy. Next week is dedicated to renewing my passport, applying for my visa for the UK, updating my resume, and finding a job! I'm hoping to work to either until the late fall or until January before I move to the UK for a year. There is definitely a lot going on with big changes in my life. I don't know how I feel about the changes, but I will adapt I'm sure.
One thing I read yesterday that I've heard before but stuck with me this time is that life is not about how long you live, its about living. Living life... Have you lived life lately? Take a risk... try something new... you might surprise yourself...

Congratulations on finishing! I could use a lesson or two on hospitality at the moment as I'm struggling with issues with our visitors here at the centre (we have 40 at a time). It's definitely stretching sometimes. May you have much grace and wisdom for the transitions ahead.
