moved on

Today mom and I drove up to Prescott to see Mr. Bardin's daughter get married.
It was a great wedding, Lia looked so beautiful and I was so glad to see familiar faces again.
They had a swing band at the reception and it was amazing!! Such a great idea! Weddings needs these, not DJ's.



On Friday instead of taking the 202 to the 101. I drove down Rural and ended up at the old studio. I just kind of circled the parking lot to see if I had any feelings at all.
What I really felt was that it still felt the same. That I still felt the same. I could still go back. I could leave ASU and be okay.
Today at the wedding; a second obstacle. Would Mr. Bardin be the same? I couldn't really tell actually. Could I return as a student? Or is that part finished?  Today he said I could always stop by and talk on Tuesdays at the studio--which I need to do anyway for a school project.

My aunt and I have been praying for a "burning bush" moment for me.
Moses heard "GO," and it was pretty clear. Clarity would be nice.

I think it is moving toward that direction:  GO from ASU.

But GO where?

My time at ASU will not be a whole wasted year.  It is easy to fall into the habit of labeling it that way. But no, I will force myself from now on to look at ASU like an aptitude test I took. I needed to find out what I really loved and want to do.  I took a long test and got the final results "You'd be good at ___" Thanks ASU.
(really I must look at it this way or label it painful and wasteful, and I don't want to do that.)

You lasted longer than I did at UA. I HATED it. Lots of people transfer. Lots of people take a break. There really aren't that many other times in life where you can push pause. I still want you to go to TAC. The college of homeschoolers!! Also: quitting isn't bad. There is wisdom in knowing when to move on instead of stubbornly keeping with something just because you don't want to be labeled a quitter--by yourself or others. God's peace to you!
