It never rains in Southern California...
October 18 2005
No people, it doesn't always look like this. It's been a rainy past few days here which is really weird for this area. They rarely get rain. Let me just say, people here cannot drive in the rain. I really don't know what they'd do if they ever got snow!
The highlight of my week was getting home in a record setting 36 minutes. Most days it takes anwhere from an hour to two and a half hours. It's pretty bad when traffic has such an impact on your life. I am beyond ready to be done with these piddly part time jobs. I love being at the hospital, I really do. But I don't get paid for that yet. So then I have to come home and get ready to go to work just so I can pay the rent. I am ready to have a real job!
One day, I'll go to work in the morning and I'll come home in the evening. And that will be it. It sounds so simple, but it means so much to not have to worry about running off to class or another job.
I am beginning to feel very torn. Part of me is in love with the country. Haystacks and hills as far and as wide as the eye can see. But at the same time, I love the hustle and bustle here. I could see myself ending up anywhere in a year, and that is honestly scary.
Oh well, I guess right now I don't need to know. Otherwise I am sure God would see it fit to tell me. So I am just going to take everything one step, one day, one state at a time.
