God works in wonderful ways…

Well, here goes nothin… Lemme give u small update on what’s happening with me before I start off with my ramblings…

A couple of weeks ago, it so happened that I was surfing and my mom came and sat beside me and asked, “So, any news bout your admissions?”. I struggle for an answer, so I decide to divert her attention by showing her a college website… IMI was the first college that popped into my mind. Typed in the URL and while the site loaded up, I was busy explaining to my mom that this was one of the colleges I really wanted to make it to. That’s when I realize that there’s a new link on the page and it says – second waitlist. I go through the list and find that I actually am waitlisted… By now you already know what I’m getting to, so I’ll cut my story short… I had to wait for about 8 days, but I finally received the confirmation. YES, I’ll be going to a b-school this year and funnily so its probably the B-school I was impressed by and wanted to be a part of, the most…
Well, what can I say other than, “God works in wonderful ways….”???...

Talking bout leaving, well I’m sure I’m going…(I’ve already sent in the fees…). But I’m not ecstatic. YUP, can u believe it???... Now, u must be telling yourself – “Screw this guy, he’s not happy with what he gets…”. Don’t get me wrong, its not that I have a problem leaving but its just that I (almost) made plans for the next year. I ‘actually’ started liking my work. I ‘actually’ thought I was getting paid pretty well. I ‘actually’ thought I had a challenging few months ahead. Lol, I ‘actually’ thought I’d get to spend a year with my parents… ;)… I ‘actually’ thought I’d get to buy another dog and see him grow… I ‘actually’ thought I’d finally get to stay at home for another year. But all these are just miniscule reasons… The greatest reason would be that I ‘actually’ would’ve been here for my sweetheart (btw, on chat our codenames are fun and frolic)… So, there you have it… I’m just a lil sad that I’m leaving ‘FUN’ behind… would’ve been nice to see her once in a while, go out for lunch, go on a drive, bring her home for lunch with the folks, go for a swim at the club, go to her place to spend an evening listening to a good record, go for the odd mal movie, go write our mocks together, meet up at four for snacks and coffee, talk on our phones till midnight… would’ve all been ‘FUN’…

But I guess life moves on; just cuz I’m leaving ‘FUN’ behind doesn’t mean I won’t have her or be a part of what she’s going through… Sure, things are gonna be hard; for her at work and me at B-school… Its gonna be real hard to leave my better half behind… But, then life does go on. I’m sure that there’s a plan in all of this and I’m grateful to God for it. I already see a part of it panning out… ;)… So, guess I’ll just have to look at this as an opportunity to take our lives to another level…

Well… God works in wonderful ways…
