And friends that are never there.
Important (relatively) bits of information and possible explanations:
I got into TFA. I'm going to be a teacher. I am so happy. I'm happy that I got it but more notably, I'm happy that I get to be a teacher. I think it's something I could love for the rest of my life. Summer training institute starts in June and after, I find out what school and grade I'll be teaching. I know this: I'll be teaching somewhere in K-8 Special Education in Phoenix or its surrounding areas. My hope is that I'll be a reading specialist. I'll be getting my Masters in Education from Arizona State University. I'm applying for loans and praying for grants. I'll be living in Phoenix for at least two more years.
I don't think I'll ever be a California girl. Well, maybe Northern California. But definitely not a city California girl. San Diego was nice to visit in December. San Francisco was as I left it three years ago: not for me. Carmel was absolutely amazing. It's the type of town I could see myself living in were I to write a fictional tale of my life. Water and natural beauty and art and grass for my toes and a breeze.
I've been in a relationship for just over six months now. Things are going well. We don't use the love-word, which is okay with me because I scare easily.
My hearing isn't what it used to be since getting an ear infection a couple years ago. I'm starting to fear that I'll go deaf as I get older and not be able to enjoy music as much. My dad is starting to.
I'm still not sure where I belong. By becoming a teacher, I think I'm on the right path. While the weather is nice during the winter, I'm not sure Phoenix is the place for me. Any guesses on where the place for me is?

the place you belong is wherever your curiosity settles, but never stops. Well a place near moderate to large bodies of water would also work to your advantage. :)
hey! it sounds like you are doing well, this makes me happy for you. i found your blog through stalking other peoples blogs. i'm a freak.

MMM... Large bodies of water...
Yeah! I am doing pretty well. Freakiness and all, stalking is always funsies and appreciated from friends though not KPL patrons. How's the 'bary? And your life and stuff? I'll stalk accordingly...
Hmmm, I don't know that any of us can find the perfect place until we're with our God. "In my father's house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would not have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you." I think said place will be the most satisfying, 'cuz it's made for us.
Also, something tells me your home is where your heart is...
