SORRY GUYS!!!

So I know I haven't updated this thing in ooooo saaayyy forever but yea!  Let me catch you guys up to speed.  I've been SO BUSY with graduate school applications, work, AND school.  But the good news is that I got into the PhD graduate school at Meharry Medical College!!!!!!  Thank GOD!!!  I was sooooo excited when I got accepted!  I got an email on a Wednesday when I was getting off work and literally went into my own little praise and worship break at my desk...no shame baby no shame!

After what I thought to be a HORRIBLE phone interview with the graduate admissions committee I just knew I would get rejected :(  Everything that could go wrong DID go wrong...a few of the interviewers had accents and they put me on speaker phone and anyone who knows me knows I HATE speaker phone because I can never tell what the heck people are saying!  Add that to an accent...and we have a recipe for disaster...I had to keep asking them to repeat themselves and on TOP of that my cell phone hung up on them in the middle of the interview!!!  I called the number on my phone back and luckily they answered.  I apologized and allowed them to continue to GRILL me!

After I got off the phone I was initially depressed....I called my close friends to tell them how bad I bombed the interview but let me tell you how good God is,,,,literally EVERY one of my friends that I called had a Word for me which definitely lifted me out of my slump.  Speaking of which, if you don't already you DEFINITELY need some friends who know at least a little something about the Word in your corner.  They help hold you accountable and will def hold you down on issues that others simply can't.  Also a great source of encouragement and even confirmation to an extent.  So anywho after talking to them I talked to God.  I was reminded of what He said and I had to let go of the self doubt.  If He said it then I believe it so I just had to believe that despite the fact that I think I had the world's worst phone interview I would get in...and I did.  GRATEFUL is an understatement!  So anywho I'm excited still and I've been busy trying to find a place to live in Nashville...which under normal circumstances would probably be a simple task but I have a pitbull and most apt complexes will certainly not allow that.  So I decided today to hire a free apartment selector...hopefully they will email me a list of options and I'll just take a leap of faith and choose one.
Truthfully at this point in my life I don't think I want a roommate.  Only because I've always had one...all during college and after graduation I moved back in with my grandparents so I would really just like some SPACE...even if it's just to relax nekkie by myself in the living room and play the xbox kinect ...that's fine by me!  Kind of just want to try things on my own.  I've always paid for everything on my own but I mean to really live in my own...no distractions...just myself. 

So that's all I just wanted to update everyone to let you guys know that I have not abandoned you I am simply trying to get things squared away and once that's all in order I'll be back!

God Bless!
