Again, I can't express how thankful I am for everything I've been through. Today, the day I found out that I am accepted into this program that I've been looking at for a long time. I finally told myself I would apply, so I went through the application process and the interview. They told me I would hear from them Tuesday, but oh boy I've been thinking so much about it I have been dreaming about it too! It's crazy! I woke up not thinking much about getting a phone call and BAM. The good news came, they congratulated me and I immediately jumped out of my bed! I believe without the push from family, friends, and Bf. I would be no where near where I am today.
I will be starting a brand new chapter in my life with the person I love and the people around me. It will be hard to just settle and adapt but I know within time I will be like a "local." There will be a lot of different changes, but I know God will be watching me and guiding me like he's been doing. I haven't taken public transportation ever since I got mugged. I fully believe that God is there shielding me so there is nothing for me to worry. I shall take the path that's there and go from there. It was pretty traumatizing at first, but I think I've taken a closer step to overcoming my fear of public trans. It hasn't been easy, but I've been taking steps little by little.
No one will understand or feel the pain I went through, but I know when I took that first step back on the bus/train I immediately knew it was going to be a brand new start. I know there may not always be a perfect picture and there will be obstacles. I made the decision to apply for the program and to begin this amazing journey that I am looking forward to. There may be a few that may not agree with my decision but there are sacrifices I need to make in life. Hopefully I'll be blogging more about this journey so I can look back later on and reflect on what I did or hopefully someone will find this useful.
