Going, going..... to San Diego!

What a crazy week this has been. The doors that have opened and the opportunities God has given. I have a little more peace, but just some stress in preparing for the next step.

With the end of my internship and no prospects and the hours at CBTL cut nothing is looking promising. I do have an interview tomorrow here in SLO for Bank of America but I am not excited about it. That's not good is it?

Sunday I came across a room for rent in San Diego from a classifieds board on a church' s website from down in SD. I had seen it before and I was interested and it sounded exactly what I am looking for in any housing situation... Christian girls who love the Lord and don't bring the party home, the boyfriends and male friends are not extended roommates, and one of them.... way coincidence.... she is an event planner in SD. Crazy huh? But I didn't know that part until I talked to her on the phone.

Then I was thinking about jobs. They aren't in SLO, not for what I went to school for, and I need more than 15 hours a week. So... I applied for this position with LH International. They are an event management firm in San Diego. So I submitted my resume Sunday night and Monday morning I was on the phone with the company and they wanted me down there this week for an interview!! So, of course with graduation this weekend and preparing to move out of the Eto Circle House that was just not possible and I let her know (kinda bummed) and I need to call her Friday about an interview for Monday or Tuesday! Coffee Bean has also approved my transfer to a store in San Diego as a Full-Time barista so I have job security while looking for a job and will have income. I even had my placements approved as well. All this in 2 days!

I am meeting the girls and seeing the house next week when I go down to San Diego. I am excited. I also need to meet with the general manager as well.

So why? And what about camp?
I hope I can still do camp. I really do. Mr. Lidbeck knows my desires and if it is the Lord's will I will be there. I will work in San Diego for a week at CBTL and then come back up for camp. Only thing is I have a concert like a few days after camp up here in SLO so I need to work all that out.

So, I came to the conclusion that I love San Luis Obispo and I do want to live here, and in order to do that I need to leave and come back. I need to be somewhere where I can get a job, get some experience, make money, save money, and then come back. When? Well I can say a couple years but you never know with God right?!?! I just don't want to struggle financially, having to tell Ali in two months here that I don't have rent money and I would rather go through this anguish now. All this kinda takes me by surprise and I am so heart broken to leave. SLO is truly my home. I plan on being here at least once a month and I hope my friends come to see me, despite the awful gas prices. Bennett is excited for me to come down and I am sure Meghan will be stoked that I will only be an hour and a half away. My mom, not so stoked. I understand it sucks having your kids live farther away, but I like eating and I need to pay bills and not sweat bricks every time rent is due.

So now what? I have 3 interviews in San Diego Monday the 16th. Please be praying. One is for an event management firm, another is for a sports and entertainment marketing firm, and the other for a promotions company. I am looking at 3 rooms down there. In that time I will be stoked for having dinner with a friend from high school, Holly and of course BENNETT!!! And Tuesday night will be in O.C to have dinner and stay with Meghan. So it is a crazy time. I am also meeting the managers at Coffee Bean and seeing what happens with those as my guaranteed fall backs.

So July will be here before I know it...... please be praying:

Smooth Transition
A job
A good housing situation
Peace and joy at this time. I am sad to leave my youth kids. My heart will always be in SLO where I will return, when the timing is right and best :)
