the future...

can be SO:

nerve-racking, overwhelming, and mysterious.

and it can also be:

fun, exciting, and full of adventure.


i felt all of these things in the last TWO days! AAAHHHH! i just need to relax. jeremy has been getting his dental school application ready to submit and we had to decide what schools to apply to. he gave me his top ten and then i had to go through and see if they had graduate programs for marriage and family therapy. for some reason that totally overwhelmed me- probably because i was WAY under-qualified for a couple of the programs, but we ended up finding 8 schools that work wonderfully for both of us. so thankfully i am passed the whole i'm-freaking-out-about-our-unknown-future to the i'm-so-excited-for-our-upcoming-adventure. it's a much better place to be. i have been researching the programs and i get so excited about each one. i can't wait to see where we will end up. this is just too much fun. our 8 schools are all over the country, which makes it fun, but also worries my mom... she wants us to stay close :) we may end up in (not in any particular order): Boston, Philadelphia, Kentucky, New Jersery, Nebraska, Las Vegas, Baltimore, or Utah. ooooo, the possibilities... they make me giddy!
