Reflecting on life as a college student and staying unordinary, always thinking outside the box

What's on my mind
It's already the 12th of January. Time sure is flying by. One week from today I start back to college for the spring semester. I hope the professors are okay. I know one of the professors because I had him last semester. I'll have to suffer through the Gender identity class I'm required to take. I also wonder about what school, what grade, what teacher I'll observe this coming semester. I hope it's not one the teachers I had in elementary school that I couldn't stand. No matter what happens, I am trusting G-d to see me through.
I am hoping that 2010 holds more joy for me than 2009 did. 2009 held much in the way of sadness. I lost my dog of 10 years. My grandfather spent a month in the hospital, suffering and withering until he finally passed away. My great aunt was diagnosed with cancer after a long remission. I went through several tests and developed a lactose/casein intolerance. On the plus side, we got a new puppy. She's been a handful and a half.
So far, 2010 isn't looking up. My great aunt is doing better but she's not the "happy-go-lucky" person I remember. A family friend is in the hospital and not doing well. I doubt he'll make it. I have a major Preprofessional test I have to pass. Wish me luck. I'm also taking an extra class this semester because I'm clearly insane. I've been doing very well in college, much better than I ever did in secondary school. I have much less homework in college than I did in middle and high school. It's mostly just reviewing and studying material so I decided to go from 15 credit hours to 17 credit hours. I also an hoping to "just get done"with college. On my sheet, it says I am likely to graduate May 2015. I am working to make it 2012 if I can, but 2013 at the latest.
I have been in debate on whether I should continue with my teaching degree or not. My parents are hoping to move out of state this summer. I am indecisive on whether to continue college here, living with my elderly grandmother or to just quit and pursue a different avenue. What that avenue is, I don't know. I am putting it in Yahveh's hands and trusting he'll point me in the direction he so desires for my life.
It's early in 2010, so I am still holding out for many good things to happen
May Peace be with you on this glorious day.
