I'm fortunate enough to be one of those kids who knows exactly what they want to do with their futures. With a mom like mine, it's inevitable that I have everything planned from which 8 courses I'm taking for my senior year to which university I want to get my masters at. I've calculated what is realistically attainable and what is not, and I have, down pat since I was in Gr. 10, a Plan A, a Plan B, and a Plan C. I even know how I'm going to make my parents okay with what I want to do.
But that's the thing about knowing what I want - I have a feeling that it's not going to align with what God wants. There's a big difference between what I want to do and what I'm supposed to do.

Things usually don't go the way you expect them to at first for college =P
Amen sista! Haha. That's like what Beimers was talking about in English. With the whole deep passion, the world's deep needs, and vocation. Funny cause I "coincidentally" read a quote the night before saying the same thing.
Man, you're gonna ace your grad transitions project.
In all seriousness, Allen's right. I planned on coming for only a couple of years, then by Christmas decided I was going to leave after this semester, and now it's all up in the air - whether to come back next year, what to do if I do, how long I'll be here, whether to graduate from here...there's so many different things going on in your life that it's almost impossible to plan your track exactly. Especially not when you let God take over.
