My first exam!

Well everyone, I am an official student these days. I had my first exam today in my spanish grammar class. I worked all weekend on rewriting my notes and woke up early (or early for me on a class day), 930 am to be exact, to study more.

It felt good. It felt like normal. Somedays I wonder if I will ever be finished studying. At this rate, I really could have been a lawyer. The only thing different is, if I were a lawyer, my experiences would be so limited to only Undergrad and Law school in America. As a result, I have one year of grad school under my belt, and two years studying in Spain a language that my entire life I have wanted to speak. Finally, I can say that I speak spanish.

God is good. These were definitely not my plans. My plans were the law school part, but this is SOOOO much better than I had planned. I still hope that He does plan for me to not have to study in a college after a little while. I am tired of the nervousness tests bring. Although, there is something oddly comforting about it.

I guess in one brief moment, I don´t have to think of the eternity set in the hearts of men, but instead, I can pray for something as small as a fill in the blank, multiple choice, essay test. Guess, I am a nerd, but I must tell you, this is the one tangible thing about my job. At the end, I get a grade that tells me that I know this language. To me, it is nice to know, I can do something well. So, I guess you could say, I feel really good about my exam.¨
