update of a full and busy month

I've been so busy since the last time I wrote that I reeally need to do some updating on here.

Well, first of all my oral final turned out pretty good. Although I had so much to do the weeks before and barely had time to study for it I got 14 points which is almost the best (15 would be).
I was so grateful and overwhelmed by this grace!
Then our friends from Texas left after our good bye bar-b-q. It was sad, but I know I am going to see them again this summer. At least most of 'em. =)

About a week later Debbie and Gary left. I brought them to the airport and it was sad, BUT I am going to see them. =) After being at the airport I drove into the city of Bonn where I did what God was demanding from me. I cannot tell it right away at this point. I can just say that God had been putting something really tough on my heart and that I decided to follow his will and do what he was asking for.
It was really weird for me, but nevertheless, I did it. And finally, I am somehow glad I did.

On June 9th I got my results from my finals and I was really down since they didn't turn out as good as I was looking for. I missed a better average by 1 point and had to decide whether I do an after-final or not. It was a tough decision, but on Friday -after bugging everyone to help me find the right decision- I finally decided not to do it. I wanted to stop my ambition from controlling my life and somehow sucking out my energy to have a life. I also said to myself: whatever God has planned for me, it will work out, no matter what average I have.
And it was the right decision because right at the next day I got a letter from the Seminary in Elstal (Berlin), telling me they want me. This is amazing, God showing that no matter what, he is in control and takes care of me.
At the same day Dana and Peter got married and it was a beautiful wedding! I was really glad to be there. =)

The following weekend I went to Natalie's graduation ball (Abiball), which was a lot of fun.
And the next day I had my day of graduation. It was awesome and a really weird feeling, leaving a school I went to for the last 10 years. Everyone was surprised by my look that night at the graduation ball. =) I thought 'this is my last day there so I really want to look nice'. I hope it worked out.

Since that day I've been busy with a lot of stuff. It is not sure yet where my way is going to lead me to. If I go to Texas and stay there for a year, working at the church. Or if I fly to Texas for vacation and go to Berln to study afterwards.
Nevertheless, I move out of my mum's house. I've been packing boxes for the last couple of days and it is a good feeling; weird, but good.

I am about to step out of my old life and take my very first breath in a new life. It is going to be an adventure, but it is worth it!
