UPDATES!!!

>>>>> Sooo after being all hot and sweaty when I first created this blog and writing post after post, I slacked off for a bit...just a couple MONTHS...nothing major...lol...FORGIVE MY ABSENCE!!!
Anyways I'm baccckkk! Better late than never right? lol Post #5!!! <<<<<<
Updates in a nutshell (like 4 months worth!)
I am a brand new person :)   the whole sleep issue is still an ongoing issue although on a lesser level compared to months before....my anxiety is virtually GONE and emotionally,spiritually and mentally,(I'm still working on the physically part) lol. I am in a way better place than I was before thanks to SEVERAL little miracles I have been lucky enough to witness 'seek and you shall find, ask and it shall be given to you.'... This is all a result of NO MEDICATION and simply a change of attitude and perspective!!!!

I am content and grateful and living day to day rather than worrying about the future and what may or may not come to pass and I am just a more mature and better person on the whole striving to be the best that I can be for myself, others and God...
That said, for those of you who don't already know, I have some major life changing news:

******* I am going to France for 8 months *******  !!!!

Looonnnggg story short, I had applied for the program but never intended on actually going because of my sleep situation etc...I wasn't sure if I'd be ok enough to be away soooo far away for sooo long....but I applied just to see if I would get through and I did!!!
so my flight is September 20th and I am sooooo excited and nervous but very grateful for the opportunity!
 I'm not going to worry about the 'what if I feel sick and can't sleep over there' business (though of course it does cross my mind)...I have faith and trust in God...and this is the path I am meant to take thus far...Que sera, sera.
Of course I will be blogging alllll about my european experience!

Everything is more or less organized. I will be teaching at a high school in Roubaix, Lille, France from Oct 1st - April 31st and I already have accomodation. I have orientation Oct 5th but of course I'm getting there extra early to organize my bank account & other administrative fun paperwork stuff. I've already done some winter shopping maynnnee! (I really couldn't help myself) lol I'm def going to need those space bag thingies cuz I've already been packing and I'm already OVERPAKCED (uhh dyslexia much?lol) x 1000!
On a sidenote I'm going to be celebrating my 24th (UGH I'm getting sooo old) birthday away from home for the 1st time ever :'(  I'm thinking about going to Paris for the weekend with friends (LOL I feel so spoilt, like 'hey I'm going PARIS for my bday) lol

N.B :  I am going to be homesick like WHOA...I just know it...I haven't thought much about leaving my fam, my doggie love of my life (caseykins) and my bf....I think I'm trying to avoid thinking about it now because it makes me sad to dwell upon it now...it really hasn't hit me just yet even though it's a lil more than 1 month before I leave!!!! I'm soooo happy I'll have my mom with me for the first few days to settle me in! I wish my bf could visit me but the cost of that ticket is UBERLY expensive and he'll b busy working :'(
Oh well, if our 4 year relationship can make it through 8 months of being apart, then we can make it through almost anything together!!!!

Anyhooz its rather early so I'm going back to bed!! I will try to keep up the blogging and not let procrastination take me away again! lol xoxoxox Have a great day!
